π The "Lost" Royal Pizza: Why You Must Try the Cosacca ππ·πΊ
Everyone comes to Naples for the Pizza Margherita , the queen of pizzas created in 1889. But did you know she has an older, perhaps more sophisticated sister?
Let me introduce you to the Pizza Cosacca.
π A Bite of History (1844) Long before Queen Margherita visited Naples, King Ferdinand II of Bourbon hosted a very special guest: Tsar Nicholas I of Russia. To honor the Russian Emperor, the brilliant pizza makers of Naples created a special pizza using ingredients that were available to the common people but fit for a king.
π§ The "Snow" of Naples Unlike the Margherita, the Cosacca does not have mozzarella. Instead, it features:
A base of sweet, intense San Marzano tomato sauce π
Fresh basil πΏ
A generous dusting of grated Pecorino Romano (or sometimes Parmigiano), meant to resemble the snow of Russia ❄️
A swirl of extra virgin olive oil
π₯ Why You Will Love It Because there is no melted mozzarella to weigh it down, the Cosacca is incredibly light and digestible. The magic happens when the salty, sharp grated cheese melts slightly into the hot, sweet tomato sauce, creating a creamy, savory "mamma mia" flavor that is purely addictive.
π‘ Sal’s Insider Advice: If you want to look like a true local and not just a tourist, order a Cosacca at least once during your trip. It is the perfect balance of history and flavor.
