Neapolitan pizza chef, shows us how to make Neapolitan pizza

Absolutely! Neapolitan pizza, known for its unique dough, fresh ingredients, and traditional cooking methods, is indeed a cultural treasure. The art of making Neapolitan pizza was inscribed on the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2017. This recognition celebrates not just the pizza itself, but also the skill and tradition of the pizzaiolos (pizza chefs) who craft these iconic pies.
The tradition of Neapolitan pizza-making has deep roots in Naples, Italy, where it originated. The dough is made from simple ingredients-flour, water, salt, and yeast-and is traditionally left to rise for at least 24 hours. The pizzas are then topped with fresh, high-quality ingredients such as San Marzano tomatoes and mozzarella di bufala, and cooked in a wood-fired oven at a very high temperature. This process creates a pizza with a soft, chewy crust, slightly charred on the edges, and a flavorful, juicy topping.
Recognizing this culinary practice as an intangible cultural heritage highlights the importance of preserving and promoting the craftsmanship, social practices, and cultural significance of Neapolitan pizza-making. It underscores the value of culinary traditions as an integral part of cultural identity and heritage.
