The History and Evolution of Modern Pizza
00:08
Welcome back to Nazariya's Khao Gali.
00:13
Crispy Samosas turned out to be like snacks with tea.
00:16
Biryani from all over the world has filled our stomachs.
00:20
Now we need a dish that can quench our hunger.
00:31
And that dish my friend is...
00:33
Drumrolls...
00:34
PIZZA!
00:39
I am Ashish Atre and in this video of Nazariya
00:42
we will learn about the cheesy history of pizza.
00:47
So let's go!
00:51
Tell me, what all ingredients are used to make pizza?
00:55
Sauce, cheese, herbs, different types of toppings
00:59
and most importantly its base i.e. flatbread.
01:03
And this flatbread is our thread to the glorious history of pizza.
01:07
So let's go with us.
01:09
Thousands of years ago in Ancient Greece
01:12
where these flatbreads are found
01:14
topped with oil and flavorful toppings.
01:18
These flatbreads were made from ground grain
01:21
and in the recorded history of 5th century Greece
01:24
these flatbreads were called Plankontos.
01:27
They were either made on hot stones or in clay ovens.
01:30
But if we consider these flatbreads as ancestors of pizza
01:34
then we need to talk about Egyptians and Babylonians
01:37
who changed the history of flatbreads with different toppings.
01:42
For now, let's move on to the story of pizza.
01:44
Throughout history, these flatbreads
01:46
were seen as a poor man's dish.
01:49
They were easily made and were also very affordable.
01:55
Who made flatbreads into pizza?
01:57
Italy!
01:58
Industrial Revolution had come
02:00
and Italy's unification had also taken place.
02:02
The increasing hunger of the working class population of Naples
02:05
was quenched by this pizza.
02:07
With quick preparation, cheese, tomato and other toppings
02:10
street vendors used to sell it.
02:13
Despite this, pizza remained a common man's food
02:16
miles away from royalty.
02:18
But the story came to a climax
02:20
when in 1889, Savoy's Queen Margherita
02:23
expressed her desire to eat pizza.
02:26
Then what happened?
02:27
There was a ruckus among pizza chefs.
02:29
Who will introduce pizza according to royalty?
02:32
Famous pizza maker Rafael Esposito
02:35
set such a patriotic standard for his experimental skills
02:39
that everyone lost their minds.
02:41
Esposito used green basil, white mozzarella cheese
02:45
and red tomatoes
02:47
to make a pizza
02:49
that matched the flag of Italy.
02:51
Madam Margherita liked this pizza so much
02:54
that it was called Margherita Pizza.
02:57
Rafael Esposito became known as
02:59
the father of modern pizza.
03:02
As soon as it reached royalty,
03:04
pizza became an Italian delicacy.
03:06
Neighboring Sicily and Rome
03:08
experimented with different sauces and toppings in pizza.
03:13
The Pizza Revolution in the United States
03:16
Now let's come to my favorite pizza era
03:19
American Pizza.
03:21
Where Italian immigrants
03:22
as soon as in the early 20th century
03:24
through small homely outlets of pizza
03:27
pizza became everyone's favorite.
03:30
Along with that, there were a lot of experiments with pizza.
03:33
Pizza became this blank canvas
03:35
in which everyone started filling colors according to their own taste.
03:39
From New York's thin crust pizza
03:41
to Detroit's thick fluffy square pizza
03:44
every region celebrates pizza in its own unique way.
03:49
Domino's, Pizza Hut and Papa Jones
03:52
have played a big role in popularizing pizza all over the world.
03:57
Due to their style and commercial value
04:00
they have made pizza a global phenomenon.
04:04
Friends, Domino's stepped into the Indian market for the first time in 1996.
04:09
And today there are more than 1800 Domino's outlets in India.
04:13
Even local food carts and confectionaries
04:16
offer frozen pizza and instant pizza.
04:20
Our homegrown brands have also flourished in the market.
04:23
Like Break Oven, Lazeez Pizza and Fat Lulu's Pizza.
04:27
We have also made a lot of innovations with pizza.
04:30
Paneer and Chicken Tikka Pizza and Tandoori Style Pizza have become very popular.
04:35
But have you tried Paratha Pizza?
04:38
Jasper Reed, who brought Joe's Biberia to India
04:41
in his show The Great Indian Pizza Adventure
04:44
he created some of the wildest Indian pizzas.
04:47
Like Nihari Pizza, Chingari Malai Pizza, Fish Mole Pizza and even Sarson Ka Saag Pizza.
04:55
Now pizza bread or base is readily available in the market.
04:59
So what are you waiting for?
05:00
You can also make some new innovations with pizza.
