The 16-inch pizza has a rich history dating back to the early 20th century in Naples, Italy. This iconic dish was traditionally prepared by skilled pizzaiolos who carefully crafted the dough and topped it with fresh ingredients such as San Marzano tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, and basil. Over time, the popularity of the 16-inch pizza spread globally, becoming a staple in pizzerias and restaurants worldwide. Today, the best versions of this dish can be found in renowned pizzerias in Naples, New York City, and Chicago. The key to a perfect 16-inch pizza lies in the quality of the ingredients and the skillful baking process in a wood-fired oven.
