Pretty sure a Margherita would be just mozzarella and basil. This is more like NY style. Looks tasty though!

Yes I'd like to have a side of buttered bread with my sauce and cheese covered bread. Also can we have some icing covered bread for desert?

Edit: Not sarcastic. I want all the bread!

That looks really great, and a type of pizza I like way more than margherita.

Buns? What's that white sauce on the side. As a long islander that pizza looks traditional and good, but it's not margarita.

I don't know why everyone is saying its not a margherita? It definitely is?

In Italy it's made with mozerella maybe, but all over Europa any gouda type of cheese gets served as a margherita as well..

That pizza looks amazing. The dough looks sooooooooo good. I find most home made pizzas have really thick cakey dough or they just fall apart because of toppings overload. Awesome job

A cheese pizza is called a margherita in the UK. Calm down Americans it doesn't matter what they call it, it looks good.

My daughter's coffee shop sells pizza rolls. They use the same bread they use for cinnamon rolls, but instead of the sweet filling they spread it with marinara and sprinkle on shopped pepperoni, dried herbs, and shredded cheese. Then they roll it up, slice it, let them rise, then bake.

You wouldn’t believe the amount of restaurants I see in the US that offer “margarita” and it’s literally just a cheese pizza. Or sometimes it will be a cheese pizza with DICED tomatoes on it. Maybe add some dried basil. Sometimes you can get actual sliced tomatoes added.

Not to say you can’t find a real traditional margarita here, it’s usually just at more upscale/specialty/expensive pizza restaurants.

Are you kidding? Clearly not a fresh mozz, no basil, not topped with sauce or including chunks of tomato, doesn't appear to be topped with olive oil...comeon. A cafe advertising that as Margherita in Naples would he burnt to the ground.

Btw there's no such thing as "cheese pizza" in Italy, except for pizza "ai 4 formaggi" which is basically 4 different types of cheese with no sauce. If it has sauce and mozzarella, then it's a Margherita (OP probably used processed/shredded mozzarella)

Nah a margherita pizza really refers to the sauce made to make the pizza that being margarita sauce. Usually topped with cheese and whole basil leaves sometimes with sliced tomatoes but that part isn't necessary. But a lot of other countries refer to it being just a plane cheese pizza with marinara sauce.

guys, margherita is mozzarella and tomato sauce (with a leaf of basil on top if you want to be fancy). isn't this a margherita? I'm italian, and I'm genuinely confused why you're all calling it a cheese pizza?

Tbf NY style is just how it's made in many other places of the world. And margherita is cheese and tomatoes in many places.

I'd call this a margherita. I wouldn't call it a NY style pizza

bronet t1_j4v6blu wrote

Replying to EgoSenatus (#1,395,211)

I wouldn't say it's that much of a key ingredient. I know the history of the pizza margherita, but the basil is mainly just garnish, and doesn't add much to the dish itself (which is why it's so sparsely used even at neapolitan pizza places).

It's hardly different at all, which is why the name is often used for a pizza with cheese and tomato. And for what it's worth, it's not unlikely to be a more common name than "cheese pizza"

You don't live in Italy, do you? Here in Italy we call margherita every pizza with mozzarella, tomato sauce and a drizzle of evo oil. The og neapolitan one is usually made with san marzano tomatoes and fiordilatte

EgoSenatus t1_j4vck3q wrote

Replying to bronet (#1,395,482)

I’d say it adds gastronomically quite a lot to the dish and would say its sparsely used by places because they don’t want to spend much on fresh basil. I’ve been to Naples, several times, and have yet to encounter a Pizza Margherita that lacks basil (the plain cheese pizzas were usually called something like “pizza al formaggio”).

If you knew the history of the Pizza Margherita, you’d know the basil is an important aspect, particularly to the guy who invented it

By definition a margherita pizza is a traditional neopolitan pizza as originally made in Italy with the ingredients ( red tomato sauce, white mozzarella and fresh green basil) representing the Italian flag.

Depending on where you are in the world, that's untrue. By definition, a goulash is a meaty stew, yet in the USA it's a pasta dish.

Is that wrong? No. Things are defined differently in different places.

Hell, by definition a pizza is a neapolitan style pizza. Yet other parts of Italy, and other parts of the world make it differently.

That is true for the traditional margherita - but for awareness, if you order a margherita in Italy you often will get it without basil. It isn’t a requirement. We honestly don’t care either-way.
