Chicago Thin Crust Pizza

Apart from the crispy, almost cracker-thin crust, this Chicago-style pizza features a heavily herbed, zesty tomato sauce and generous amounts of shredded mozzarella. As for the other toppings, pepperoni is widely available but often comes second to crumbled Italian sausage, and then there's also bacon, prosciutto, and a variety of vegetables. The number one choice among locals, Chicago thin crust is typically cut into squares—the so-called box cut, tavern-style, or party cut—and unlike its New York counterpart, it doesn't fold up. In fact, the Chicagoans would say you should "fold your laundry, not your pizza".
