Hearing you describe Chicago-style pizza as "basically soup" brought me a chuckle. It reminds me somewhat of the pie debates I have with my parents in England. Sometimes you go to a pub and order, say, a steak and ale pie, and the pastry is just a lid. I'm staunchly of the view that a pie crust has to completely encase the filling, if it's just a lid, that's not a pie, it's stew with a hat.

Fun fact: in Italy, specifically in Central Italy, we have a dish that we call "pizza", even though it looks nothing like Neapolitan pizza and it's tall and fluffy like the one in the video. It's called "pizza di Pasqua" or "pizza al formaggio" (literally "Easter pizza" or "cheese pizza") and we eat it during Easter, especially in Umbria and Marche which were also part of the Papal States. Maybe these tall and fluffy foods were what central Italians used to call pizza back in the day...

Well, these are two deliveries of twelve pizzas each, which is a lot a dough and other ingredients that you’d need to acquire all on your own. If we assume similar prices to a modern large pizza, that’s about a hundred dollars’ value per “party” so about 200 a year, which might not seem like a lot if compared to rent which is more than twice that each month, but this isn’t for something that’s absolutely essential like a place to live, it’s just a mill. It’s there so you don’t have to grind your grains by hand or order flour that’s already ground up. So this could actually be kinda pricey, depending on the success of the business that relies on it.

Hi Max, my definition of pizza is a flatbread that does not contains pineapple or chicken :) Jokes apart, the word is directly translated to the English pie. Here in Naples I could easily show a few pizzas that you wouldn’t even think of calling pizza. On Easter we do pizzas with are literally covered and look like a pie with a cover on top. Fried pizza is like a folded and fried calzone. So yes, it’s a pie :) and small fish = anchovies, it’s typical on early marinara pizza recipes, garlic, tomato sauce and anchovies

My Sicilian great-grandfather used to eat bread with watermelon every time he could! Although, the bread was homemade and fresh (still warm from the oven), and the watermelons were home-grown, fresh, and sweet (still warm from the sun). I get the impression from my family that it was a common snack among Italian immigrants in the midwest because it was inexpensive as well as delicious.

In case you have never heard of this, there is a rhyme in Italian that we learn as kids: La regina Elisabetta mangia la pizza con la forchetta, la regina Margherita mangia la pizza con le dita. Queen Elizabeth eats her pizza with a fork, Queen Margherita eats her pizza with her fingers. Which, by the way, both are perfectly socially acceptable ways of eating pizza in Italy :)

Your story about your first NYC apartment brought back *big* memories (or small memories) of my own first apartment after I graduated from NYU in 2005, on 13th Street between 2nd and 3rd Aves (right across the street from the Kiehl's flagship store, if you're into skincare at all). My bathroom had a literal KINDERGARTEN-SIZED sink, like the kind you see in preschools, and my bedroom was so tiny that my twin bed, desk and dresser, which I had assembled from Ikea, could only fit in one particular configuration, like a Tetris game except with furniture; I discovered, when it came time to move out, that the furniture literally could not fit out the bedroom door, and so I sold all three articles as-is, still in the room, when I passed it on to the next subletter.

Written between 29 BC and 19 BC, the poem “Aeneid” describes the hero Aeneas arriving with his crew in Latium and sitting down to enjoy a meal of 'thin wheaten cakes' used as plates topped with mushrooms and herbs. 'Look! We have eaten our plates! I recall remarking on this passage as describing pizza in a Latin translation class. Pushes the origin back a few more than 500 years.😁

And then Spanish people who had great influence in the arab food brought their influence of gastronomy to Mexico.

Apt description. With rose water icing.

The fact that pizza wasn't really found in anywhere in Italy except for only a select amount of places, jives with my mom's story of visiting her parents hometown of Trento as a teeanger in the 60s. Absolutely no one there knew what pizza was. They convinced her, since they didn't know any better, that it is most certainly an American invention.

Please do another pizza video and include New Haven apizza. Being a decendant of the Italian immigrants that moved there and growing up only knowing that style, until I was an adult, I can tell you there is a whole interesting history behind it. It's a bit different. I now live in the Minneapolis area and miss it very much, along with sfogliatelli and other pastries and Libby's Italian ice. Not to be confused with grocery store Italian ice. Anyhow, thanks for your videos, I love what you do!!!

I'm always amazed at how much there is behind the history of food! Never would have guessed this was pizza lol !
