How is Neapolitan pizza made?

Neapolitan pizza is made using a specific type of dough made from wheat flour, water, salt, and yeast. It is shaped into a round, thin disk and then topped with San Marzano tomatoes, fresh mozzarella cheese, and basil. The pizza is then cooked in a wood-fired oven for approximately 90 seconds, until the crust is crispy and the cheese is melted and bubbly. The high heat and short cooking time are key to the Neapolitan style, which emphasizes the delicate balance of flavors and textures in the pizza.
