Neo-Neapolitan Pizza: A Modern Interpretation from Tradition to the Future Neo-Neapolitan pizza is an "artisan pizza" style that combines the high-hydration dough structure of traditional Neapolitan pizza (Verace Pizza Napoletana) with modern fermentation techniques and creative, seasonal ingredients. Unlike the traditional version, it utilizes long-term cold fermentation and is often served with contemporary, sometimes local, or exotic gourmet toppings.
