Usually, pizza is served with interesting toppings such as sausage, cheese, meat, various vegetables, and fruit toppings. However, who would have thought that making pizza at home is very easy to practice.

Long before becoming a popular dish and having enthusiasts from the upper class, pizza was known as a dish for the lower class. However, based on its origin, pizza has a quite long history until it becomes a dish like it is today.

Although it is not yet known exactly when pizza first appeared, Naples, Italy is said to be the country believed to be the birthplace of pizza. According to altohartley.com, the first pizza restaurant in Italy was named Antica Pizzeria Port'Alba in 1738.

However, the first modern pizza appeared in 1889, introduced by Raffaele Esposito, who at that time created a pizza called "Pizza Margherita". The pizza was specially made for the Italian queen, Margherita of Savoy. It is called modern pizza because it first appeared without many toppings. Then Raffaele Esposito added some toppings, including cheese. Since then, pizza has become popular in every country, from Europe, America, to Asian regions like Indonesia. Pizza is now served in luxurious and elite restaurants. There are various types of pizza, such as meat and fruit pizza, with many topping variations that satisfy the taste buds. Not many people know that pizza also contains several nutrients. These nutrients are obtained from the toppings used for pizza, especially vegetables and fruits, such as protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, and fiber. These nutrients can be obtained by the body if pizza consumption is not excessive. Because pizza contains high calories and salt, which can be harmful to the body. Despite that, who would have thought that making pizza at home is actually very easy to practice. Besides being of better quality, making pizza at home can save money because many pizzas are currently priced high. Here are 6 ways to make pizza at home that are more affordable and according to taste.
