Neapolitan pizza, born in Naples, Italy, is loved around the world. The people of Naples love it so much that when freshly baked pizza is served, they eat it hot without looking away! The pizza is baked quickly in a high-temperature stone oven that can reach about 450°C, allowing for a chewy texture that brings out the sweetness of the wheat. The pizza is made by skilled pizzaiolos (pizza makers) who determine the best position in the oven to place the pizza. It takes just a little over a minute to bake.
