10 Pizzas you should definitely try in 2021

OMG Can you guys believe it, there is only one month for 2020 to end. What better way to end this year than dedicating an entire month for food that deserves attention. This year went by so fast right? I thought I could eat some delicious treats as away to start the new decade but that did not happen. The food that I missed the most was pizza. I figured that there are many people like me who miss pizza and are making a list of pizza that you should eat. So here are 10 pizzas that you should definitely try in 2021. 

10. Pizza Capricciosa

I know it looks so good right. This is a big winner for those who love diverse toppings. Now this pizza is from Italy. The name of this pizza literally translates to Capricious and seems quite appropriate, considering that the toppings tend to vary from one region to another. Capricciosa is made with an ever-changing combination of ingredients which most often include tomatoes, mozzarella, mushrooms, artichokes, ham, olives and a sliced hard-boiled egg. Whereas in Central and Northern Italy, it is uncommon to add capers, sausages and sometimes even anchovies. The two best places to eat this delish pizza are Pizzeria Da Remo in Rome, Italy and Antica Pizzeria e Friggitoria Di Matteo in Naples, Italy.

9. Caprese Pizza

Another one from Italy. This is a variety of Italian pizza that is traditionally topped with cherry tomatoes, mozzarella di bufala, olive oil and fresh basil leaves. It provides a great way to use up leftover tomatoes and some cooks like to finish it off with a drizzle of balsamic reduction on top. My mouth is watering already but it is only the second pizza in the list. The two best places to eat this pizza are Homeslice pizza in Westminster, England and Gusta pizza in Florence, Italy.

8. New York Style Pizza

Now this one is awesome and gets a lot of attention in sitcoms as it is credited as the best pizza in all of America. New York style pizza is a large, thin-crusted pizza that evolved from the classic Neapolitan-style pizza. When sliced the pieces are very large and wide, While the crust is crispy yet foldable for easier consumption. Some claim that the unique texture of the crust owes much to the minerals that are only found in New York's tap water. Traditionally, the pizza is topped with mozzarella and heavily seasoned tomato sauce, olive oil, tomatoes, garlic, sugar, salt, oregano, crushed red pepper and basil, while the additional ingredients such as vegetables or sausage come on top of the cheese. The two best places to eat this pizza are Joe's Pizza in Manhattan, USA and Totonno's Pizzeria Napolitana in Brooklyn, USA.

7. Pepperoni Pizza

Now you must have heard about this one even if you are a pizza lover or not. Pepperoni pizza is an American pizza variety which includes one of the country's most beloved toppings. The popularity of the pepperoni pizza started to rise in the 1950s. Nowadays beef pepperoni pizza is the most popular variety. It's simply prepared with mozzarella, tomato sauce and pepperoni. The two best places to eat this pizza are Prince St.Pizza in Manhattan, USA and Grimaldi's. 

6. Calzone Pizza

Another Sitcom favourite pizza and it's not circular like the other pizzas. This unique type of pizza is characterised by it's half-round shape, made by folding a full-sized pizza in half. Hailing from the 18th century Naples, calzone literally means pant legs. Calzones are filled with meats such as salami or ham and cheeses such as mozzarella, ricotta, parmesan, and pecorino whereas fried calzones with mozzarella and tomatoes are a speciality from the Italian region of Apulia and are known as Panzerotti.

5. Tandoori Pizza

This pizza is from India where pizzas are not so prominent but that doesn't make it any less yummy. This pizza is big among spice lovers. This pizza is made with many spices and toppings among which are Paneer tikka or Chicken tikka, capsicum, tomato, onions and many other vegetables and is made with mozzarella cheese. The two best places to eat this delicious pizza are Pizza hut and Dominoes which can be found anywhere in India.

4. Pizza Marinara

This pizza is classic, period. It generally does not use cheese but it's so good. Marinara is a Neapolitan pizza with a topping of tomatoes, oregano, garlic, extra virgin olive oil and sometimes fresh basil. Some claim it was invented at Pizzeria Port'Alba in 1734, considered the oldest pizzeria in the world. Marinara is a part of protected Napoletana pizzas with specific rules concerning the production process, the dough and the key ingredients used in making the pizza. The best place to eat this classic pizza are L'Antica Pizzeria da Michele in Naples, Italy. 

3. Pizza Margherita

Another classic one. Take my word on this pizza, it's really delicious. Pizza margherita is a delicacy that is literally fit for a queen. In 1889, Queen margherita of Savoy visited Naples, where she was served with a pizza that was made to resemble the colours of the Italian flag: Red tomatoes, white mozzarella cheese and green basil. Since those times, Margherita has become one of the most popular pizza variety in the world and in 2009 it was protected as one of the three Pizze Napoletane with an STG European label of protection, proving it's excellence in flavour, ingredients and traditional pizza making techniques. The two best places to eat this mouth watering pizza are Gino e Toto Sorbillo in Naples, Italy and Gusta Pizza in Florence, Italy.

2. Hawaiian Pizza

This pizza is one of the most controversial pizzas of all time since it has the famous Pineapple. Even though it is hated by some people it is very popular among other people. Despite its name, Hawaiian pizza is a Canadian invention, a classic American style pie topped with cheese, ham and pineapple chunks. It was originally created by Sam Panopoulos in Ontario in the mid 1960s when he added pineapple to the dish and started serving it to the customers of his Satellite Restaurant. The customers loved it and Hawaiian pizza soon made its way to the rest of Canada and the USA. The two best places to eat this pizza are Pizzeria Barbarella In Vancouver, Canada and Pizzeria Mozza in Los Angeles, USA.

1. Chicago style deep dish Pizza

Yes the top pizza and this is a dish I drool the most for. It is the most cheesiest pizza I have ever seen. In the late 1800s and the early 1900s, Neapolitan immigrants came to USA in search of better life. Shortly after, in 1943 their descendants, Ike Sewell and Ric Riccardo had opened Pizzeria Uno in Chicago, serving a new variety of pizza in a deeper dish with inverted layers of cheese, meat, tomatoes and a crunchy crust. No longer an immigrant tradition, Chicago style deep dish pizza is now one of Chicago's cultural and culinary icons. This pizza is not only popular in Chicago, but all over the world, and its popularity is evident in the fact that there is even a National Deep Dish Pizza Day celebrated every year in April 5. Thick, Heart and Crispy, Chicago style deep dish pizza is a cheesy and gooey treat for pizza lovers all over the world. The two best places to eat this cheesy delight are Lou Malnati's Pizzeria in Chicago, US and Pequod's Pizza in Chicago, US.
