Honouring Those Stubborn Italians For Being True To Their Roots - Blockchain Coffee “Pizza”
Have you ever tried an authentic Italian style pizza? Compared to what we see of Americanized pizzas today, the general appeal of having everything on it, a true old school Italian pizza seems to be lacking at first glance yet is on its own level being a mouthful of wonderful!
We have to give it to the Italians when it comes to food, particularly anything bread related. Italy is the birth place of so much cuisine yet here in North America we often do not get to enjoy those humble beginnings through what is now offered.
In our current age there are no limits on cuisine, if you wish to create a dish with the most rare ingredients the supplies are a mere order away. This means the culture which started many of our favourite creations is left to the side in experimentation. Yet we see places which insist on going back to the roots of it all and being inspired once more to create authentic cuisine to which little can compare.
The pizza is no exception starting as focaccia with only tomato sauce added to it. During the time of World War II allied troops staying in Italy brought home the idea and it evolved as everything does when traversing into a new culture giving birth to what we know today as the deluxe pizza being fully loaded with toppings.
Yet more isn’t always better with so many flavours crammed onto one piece of bread it can become hard to distinguish differences within the options. Simplicity is often best in a sense of our taste buds and the Italians have long since mastered the concept of fresh ingredients with simple recipes equals bold yet distinctly enjoyable flavours, it is the core idea of their culinary.
Luckily the Italians are also a stubborn bunch and cling to their roots like weeds in a garden you just cannot get rid of. I see many places opening up growing these roots back into the light of mainstream culinary. From simple recipes to even wood fired stone ovens every aspect of the authentic Italian pizza is being replicated all around North America, dare I say the world?
Like a tribute if you will, acknowledging that humble beginning and honouring those stubborn Italians for being true to their roots!
