Due to the pizza's thick design, it is usually filled 'upside down.' The vegetables, cheeses, and meats are placed on the bottom along the crust, enabling them to cook completely.
The general rule for all thin crust pizzas is to keep everything sparse, including the crust thickness and layer of tomato sauce. Authentic New York-style pizza has one or two toppings, including cheese. However, many New Yorkers would argue this type of pizza cannot be replicated outside the city, as the water's acidity and hardness accounts for the crust's texture and flavor.
