                                According to UNESCO, the traditional craft of Neapolitan pizza making was added to the list of intangible cultural heritage in 2017, celebrating a style of pizza with a notably soft and chewy crust. A soft pizza crust is typically achieved through high dough hydration, specific fermentation techniques, and high-temperature cooking methods. For those who prefer a less crunchy, more tender bite, several pizza varieties fit the bill, from classic Italian methods to American-style pan bakes.
