The birth of Pizza Margherita, the historic center of Naples.
00:00:00
Neapolitans have strong opinions about how pizza should be made.
00:00:07
The dough has to be thick with a raised rim and its texture must be firm yet moist.
00:00:10
This is the famous Margherita pizza.
00:00:19
A legendary pizza master, Raffaele Esposito, invented this pizza in the 19th century.
00:00:24
It is known as the Queen of Pizzas.
00:00:30
After the fall of the Roman Empire, Naples was ruled by various foreign powers.
00:00:35
The Castle del Orvo was built by the Normans who arrived here in the 12th century.
00:00:40
One hundred and twenty years later, the French came here and built another huge castle.
00:00:50
Many artists and writers, such as Giovanni Boccaccio, came to Naples from Florence to
00:00:57
the north, and an elegant court culture flourished.
00:01:02
Splendid food must have been served in the palace, but regular citizens were eating simple
00:01:08
pizzas like this.
00:01:13
No ingredients like olive oil were used.
00:01:16
Pizzas were made simply with some lard spread over the dough and topped with fish like sardines
00:01:19
and whitebait caught during the day.
00:01:24
It was only after another foreign power came to the city that pizzas became more sophisticated.
00:01:27
The Kingdom of Spain ruled Naples for over two hundred years from the late 15th century
00:01:34
onwards.
00:01:39
This palace was the residence of the Spanish Governor General.
00:01:41
The interior is impressive, the staircase here is entirely of marble.
00:01:45
However, during the Great Age of Discovery, the Governor General was too busy exploring
00:01:51
the New World and never had time to visit the palace.
00:01:56
Spain brought many unique vegetables from the New World back to Naples.
00:02:00
In the 19th century, Italy was finally unified and Naples was finally free from foreign control.
00:02:08
Tomatoes were brought from the New World during Spanish rule.
00:02:18
They are a key ingredient in pizza and margherita.
00:02:22
After Italian unification, the King and Queen of Italy visited Naples for the first time,
00:02:26
and the Queen invited the great pizza master, Osposito, to the palace.
00:02:31
To commemorate the unification of their country, he invented a new pizza inspired by the colors
00:02:38
of the national flag.
00:02:43
Tomatoes for red, mozzarella for white, and basil for green.
00:02:45
The Queen was delighted and asked him what this pizza was called.
00:02:56
Osposito immediately answered, it is named Margherita, in your honor, your majesty.
