About Pizza marguerita

Pizza Margherita is a classic Italian dish originating from Naples, celebrated for its simplicity and fresh ingredients. It is traditionally made with a thin crust, fresh tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, and fresh basil leaves, reflecting the colors of the Italian flag. The dough is usually made from flour, water, salt, and yeast, then baked to perfection in a wood-fired oven. While Pizza Margherita is lower in toppings compared to other varieties, it provides a good source of protein from the cheese and vitamins from the tomatoes and basil. However, it can be high in sodium and refined carbs, depending on portion size and preparation. Opting for whole-grain dough or reduced-fat cheese can make it a healthier choice. This iconic pizza balances nutritional elements with a flavorful, fresh taste that has made it beloved worldwide.
