In 1889, Italian Queen Margherita was once traveling across her kingdom and noticed that peasants were munching on that large piece of bread. She became curious and tasted it. She liked it so much that every time she visited them, she ate the bread. Because it was considered to be peasants’ food, the Queen dining on it was not usual and this created anxiety and dismay in Court Circle. Queen Margherita eventually called Chef Rafaelle Esposito and ordered to make some pizzas for her. The chef baked a pizza using fresh basil, Mozzarella Cheese and tomatoes. The colors were carefully selected because they represented the colors of Italian Flag – red, white and green. This especially baked pizza became Queen’s favorite pizza and by word of mouth it was spread that pizza is Queen’s favorite food. This made her very popular among her subjects. The Queen started a tradition known as Pizza Margherita. This tradition still continues in Naples and has also become popular worldwide.
