What do you do in the spring that would come under the term "spring cleaning" ? I don't. I clean house about every 4 days regardless of the seasons  |

I'm with Becky on this one...I clean every few days so I don't really have to do a "deep" cleaning.

Naples is the birthplace of the pizza. The original was the three colours of the Italian flag: Red tomato sauce, white mozzarella cheese and green basil leaves. True purists still don't eat any other variety.

Naples is the birthplace of the pizza. The original was the three colours of the Italian flag: Red tomato sauce, white mozzarella cheese and green basil leaves. True purists still don't eat any other variety. Well...this article has a different POV on that. www.globallookingglass.com/2012/07/21/naturally-cheeseless-pizza/"Pizza marinara is one of the first made pizzas in Naples – where pizza comes from – and with the “margherita” (with cheese) option is one of the most popular in Italy. It’s made with tomato sauce, garlic, oregano and olive oil. Yes, just that. And yes, no cheese. The name “marinara” could make some people think it has fish on it because “marinai” means “sailors” but the name comes from the fact that its ingredients could be easily preserved in long trips by sailors. The fact is that you’ll find marinara pizza with anchovies outside Italy, as was the case of Italian Martina Trovato, 23: “Even when I found marinara in the UK, it was always with anchovies, so I had to always order a vegetarian pizza with no cheese.” She agrees that most of the people outside Italy don’t know what is a marinara pizza. “I found it several times with anchovies, pineapple and even aniseed!”, says Martina.". In other words...no cheese is the original Neapolitan pizza. |

Never heard about the "marinara" variety before, but it makes sense. I thought that the "margherita" was the original. Here is its story: According to popular tradition, in 1889, 28 years after the unification of Italy, during a visit to Naples of Queen Margherita of Savoy, wife of King Umberto I, chef Raffaele Esposito of Pizzeria Brandi and his wife created a pizza resembling the colors of the Italian flag, red (tomato), white (mozzarella) and green (basil). They named it after the Queen - Pizza Margherita. Descriptions of such a pizza recipe, however, can be traced back to at least 1866 in Francesco DeBouchard book “Customs and Traditions of Naples” - (Vol II, p.. 124). There he describes the most popular pizza toppings of the time which included one with cheese and basil, often topped with slices of mozzarella. Whatever the real origins of this pizza recipe are, all we know for sure is that Raffaele Esposito's version for Queen Margherita was the one that made it popular. Since then it has grown into one of the most recognisable symbol of Italian food culture in the world. Extract from www.italymagazine.com/featured-story/pizza-margherita-history-and-recipe |

Best pizza I've ever had was when we were in Naples. Completely different from what we're used to here and it was delicious!
