About Neapolitan cheese pizza

Neapolitan Cheese Pizza is a beloved classic originating from Naples, Italy. Featuring a thin, slightly charred crust made from simple ingredients like flour, water, yeast, and salt, this pizza is topped with San Marzano tomato sauce, creamy mozzarella cheese, and a drizzle of olive oil. Neapolitan-style pizza is traditionally baked at high temperatures in a wood-fired oven, giving it a distinct texture and smoky flavor. While rich in taste, its nutritional profile brings both benefits and indulgences. The use of fresh tomatoes provides antioxidants like lycopene, while olive oil adds heart-healthy monounsaturated fats. Mozzarella cheese offers protein and calcium but is also higher in saturated fat and sodium, which may be noteworthy for those monitoring these nutrients. Moderation is key for enjoying this iconic dish, as its simple preparation allows for a satisfying meal that highlights wholesome ingredients and authentic Italian tradition.
