In English, pepperoni refers to a spicy Italian-American variety of dry Salami made of Pork and Beef . Pepperoni is a descendant of the spicy salamis of Italy , such as ''salsiccia Napoletana piccante,'' a spicy dry pork Sausage from Naples . Pepperoni is frequently used as a Pizza topping in American-style pizzerias. It is the most popular pizza topping in North America , present on at least 30% of all pizzas. ''Pepperoni'' is a corruption of ''peperoni'', the Italian Plural of ''peperone'', referring to the fruit of the Capsicum . Ordering "peperoni" pizza in Italy is often an unwelcome surprise for North American Tourists since throughout Continental Europe , peperoni is the common word for a small, spicy and often pickled pepper, sometimes known as ' Pepperoncini ' in the US. To order the American version of pepperoni in Italy, one would request ''salame piccante'' or spicy salami. Unlike in Europe, the English word is used as a Singular Uncountable Noun . |
