Taste the USA: Iconic Regional Dishes from New York, North Carolina, and North Dakota
The Classic New York-Style Pizza
Pizza stands as an iconic food in New York, yet it differs notably from Chicago’s deep-dish variety. The New York-style pizza features a thick outer crust and a thin, flexible center. Chefs traditionally bake it on stone hearths, imparting a unique charred flavor and texture. A quintessential New York eating habit? Folding the slice in half before taking a bite, a practical and beloved way to enjoy this urban staple.
