Alert in the pizza world: what if you've been eating pizza wrong all this time? It's not about flavors—every taste has its place—but technique. Pizza authority Daniel Young, Englishman, trained by Italian master chef Enzo Coccia and author of the acclaimed guide Where to Eat Pizza (yet to be translated into French), shares this essential insight.
Young gained his expertise under Coccia, learning the secrets of true Neapolitan pizza. 'It's a bit silly to claim strict rules for eating pizza,' he told the Manchester Evening News, 'but know them before you break them.' Genuine Neapolitan-style pizza features a thin, soft dough that's tricky to handle without mess. The solution? Fold your slice instead of gripping the edge. This origami-like fold keeps toppings and sauce intact, letting you enjoy it by hand effortlessly. Plus, it's authentic—just say, 'I fold my pizza Naples-style.' Classic.
