The Italians where I'm from didn't put leaves on it. But they did cut the pepperoni up into little strips, which I still think is better than those big eye-like slices (that a lot of people I used to know disliked and found "creepy" when the American/American style chains (like Mother's) first came to town) ... it gets distributed better.
And you should have seen how Mother's taught people to spread sauce. I still do it that way, actually. Doesn't involve spreading it with a ladle, either.
The traditional story of the Pizza Margherita involves a chef making the pizza in the colors of the Italian flag to impress the Queen of Italy, Margherita. Hence why it's laid out in way that shows the red, white, and green.
I-Italians??
That’s what some margheritas look like, bruh…
You’re joking, right?? Surely…
Pizza is American. Italians might have invented it, but it was perfected in the U.S. of A.
That's the most retarded shit I've read today, and I came back scouting resetera for two hours.
Congratulation.

Those leaves are basil. It's not a margherita pizza without them. It sounds like you're familiar with Sicilian pizza, but not Neapolitan pizza.
I guess not. I'd put the basil in the sauce, or use it like a bay leaf.
And yaeh, lotta Sicilians in that town. Or used to be. Probably all arab and paki now.
