What kind of pizza is loved in different countries of the world?

Historians still have not come to a consensus on who and when exactly was cooked the first pizza. But for several hundred years, this dish is considered to be Italian. At one time it was a flat flat puff flat on which the filling was placed from meat, vegetables or seafood. Over time, recipes have changed, new ones appeared, and the love for such a pastry increased more and more.

So what's the world's favorite pizza? We've ranked the tastes of 10 countries.

Italy

According to the rules, which Italians take very seriously, the dough should be rolled out by hand and be no thicker than 2 mm. Favorite toppings are tomatoes, mozzarella and basil. And to make the crispy base even tastier, it's drizzled with olive oil. The main thing here is not to overcook the dish in the oven. Cooking time is strictly regulated - 1-1.5 minutes.

USA

Americans like everything to be very nourishing, so they started laying meat or bacon on the crust, generously coating it with tomato sauce. After eating just a piece, you will immediately feel full, because the filling, according to the culinary preferences of American residents, should be a lot. By the way, the traditional Hawaiian pizza with chicken and pineapple was also "invented" here.

Japan
The Japanese love to eat "mochi," a base baked from rice flour, smeared with a layer of mashed potatoes and garnished with tomatoes, onions and corn. A more unusual version of the pizza here is with seafood and cheese. The black crust, dough for which is made with the addition of squid ink, adds originality to it.

Sweden
This country is known for its original view on the preparation of pizza. For example, you might be offered to try a topping of peanuts (or peanut paste), chicken fillet, bananas, curry and pineapple. Pretty bold experiments.

Korea

To avoid inventing anything new, Koreans simply bake flatbreads and put their traditional dish, pulkogi, on them. It is fried slices of pre-marinated beef with sauerkraut, mushrooms, and cheese.
