Re: but the original Pizza, still the most popular today, is the Pizza Margherita

what about pizza rustica? pizza is a term for pie, and pizza rustica is old dish. now served at easter, its most likely a pre-christian spring dish--made with grain, and fresh green herbs (baked in a yeasted 'pie' crust--

pizza rustica, is of course 'country cooking'.

'modern' pizza might be more like the pizza marghertia, but this is hardly the 'origianl pizza'
