A pizza characterized by a high fat content, often originating from the cheese, toppings (such as pepperoni or sausage), or the dough itself. This characteristic is visually evident through the presence of oil on the surface and can influence both the flavor and texture of the product.
The appeal of this kind of pizza lies in the richness it provides to the overall taste profile. The fat content contributes to a savory and often more satisfying eating experience. Historically, certain regional styles of pizza, particularly those influenced by Italian-American traditions, have often embraced a more generous application of oils and fats.
