Napoletana or Neapolitan refers to anything done in the fashion of Naples, a port city in southern Italy. Pizza has been made there for centuries, however the tomato-topped pies we enjoy came into fashion in the late 1800s when a pizzaiolo (pizza maker) honored Queen Margherita with a patriotic pizza featuring the colors of the Italian flag: red (tomato), white (mozzarella) and green (basil). The tradition of Neapolitan pizza is preserved today by the Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana, or VPN. This organization certifies that pizzerias all over the world uphold the traditions of Neapolitan pizza making. Dante is VPN member 325.
