Pizza dates back to Ancient Rome and it is said that bread was topped with sauce, tomatoes, cheese, and different fruits and then baked. However, the form of pizza we know today developed in 19th century Naples, Italy.

The flavor of pizza can be affected by many factors, but some important tips to keep in mind are:

1. Quality of the dough: The dough is the foundation of the flavor of pizza. The right proportion of flour used, the right cooking time, and temperature are very important.

3. Quality of ingredients: The ingredients of pizza are a very important part of its flavor. Choosing the best quality ingredients will enhance the flavor of pizza.
4. Temperature of the oven: To fully cook the pizza, the temperature of the oven must be adjusted correctly. The oven must be hot enough to fully cook the pizza.
