How does cassava pizza originate?
The first pizza is said to have emerged in the city of Naples (Italy) sometime in the 17th century. Today it is one of the most famous foods in the world but the story does not stop there. Thanks to the constant cultural exchange with the so-called New World, a new type of cuisine is produced that is added to mestizo cuisine, this modality is known as fusion cuisine. Many Italian immigrants came to America, a product of the war, especially to the south of America (Paraguay, Uruguay and Argentina) where pizza finds a new ingredient that enriches it: cassava.
