Pizza is a popular dish that originated in Italy. It typically consists of a round, flat base made from dough, topped with tomato sauce, cheese, and various toppings such as pepperoni, vegetables, or seafood. It is baked in an oven until the crust is crispy and the cheese is melted. There are many styles of pizza, including Neapolitan, Chicago deep-dish, and New York-style. Each style has its own unique characteristics, such as thickness of the crust and types of toppings. Pizza is enjoyed worldwide and is often served in slices, making it a convenient meal for sharing.
