What do you put on your pizza?

[Fr. Jerk]

Everything on the menu, with extras, ya dig?

 

Except pineapple. Gross. 

[TwoFlocksofFury]

Literally anything that's available except green pepper. If we get Marco's, it's just pepperoni because their jarred toppings are just terrible.

My current favorite combo is white pizza with garlic, spinach, tomato and feta.

I used to work years ago in downtown Toronto, and we'd always stop into this Sicilian Pizzaria at lunch.

They had some fairly obscure authentic pizzas on their menu and we decided to try every one throughout the months.......some were good, most were really bad.

The place was a high rated, top of the line pizza joint.

 

Side story, when I worked in a casino, I'd get my lunch from the snack bar.  Early on I printed out their menu from the website, and each day I'd try something different, to find my favorites, likes, and avoid, items.  Eventually though, the taco salad, and turkey burger which were two of my favorites, were not big sellers and they took them off the menu.

Red pizza   -  pepperoni, mushrooms, artichokes, green bell peppers plus occasionally Italian sausage and/or red onions.

White pizza - Italian sausage, mushrooms, artichokes, roasted garlic, green bell peppers, red onions

Sauce, heavy enough that it almost becomes a fork and knife endeavor.

Cheese, applied liberally. With a trench shovel.

Pepperoni, in amounts that most folks would consider obsessive and frightening.

Maybe the very occasional bit of ham, thin-sliced tomater or light scattering of banana peppers.

Anything else is a foul manifestation of evils borne of the bowels of hell.

I bet that's exactly how your toilet would describe your next day deposit of the remnants!

Hopefully it's lost it's stringiness or that could get awkward.

My standard go to is either Pepperoni or Pepperoni and Banana Peppers but I'm not against doing mushrooms occasionally

 

I will also do some specialty pizza's from time to time(Steak N Cheese, Chicken Finger etc.)

 

We change it up a lot, but we’ve landed on pepperoni, mushrooms and banana peppers as our go to. Left to my own devices I’d swap out the banana peppers for roasted fresh jalapeños, but that’s a bit much for the wife. Straight up pep or shroom is always good too. Charcuterie meats are fantastic on pizza and some specialty pizzas are great too.

My wife made a homemade pizza one time with cauliflower crust..........i say one time cause my son and i threw it out, she was crying saying she'll never make anything for us again, throwing things, etc.

 

It was a whole scene, man.

I can’t believe you weren’t more tactful. lolz

I went to a new-ish restaurant yesterday. One of the two partners is from Italy and has a fine dining Italian place in town we love. The new place is more casual (and closer to me) and I’m thinking of going back today for the prosciutto and arugula pizza. I’m just intrigued.

I love a great Neapolitan white pie, with prosciutto and arugula!

The prosciutto and arugula pizza was amazing! I’m already planning on trying to get my wife up there next weekend. It reminds me of the pizza we made in a cooking class in Rome a couple years ago. The instructor explained that this was different from the pizza in Naples where they toss dough. Ours was just rolled, and amazing! I have a pic of my wife with this big old pie in front of her, annd another pic of her taking the last bite! So light and airy it didn’t fill us up!

 

The bartender today was telling me if I like the prosciutto and arugula pizza I need to try the white pizza. It’s got ricotta, truffles and mushrooms. It’s on my list now. I’ve been there 5 times in the last 2 weeks since I learned it was open. The owner is from Italy and the menu has so many things that need to be tasted!

For the record, I think that is the best leftover pizza I have ever had. The prosciutto was the star hot. (The fat was quicker to the tongue?)  The arugula was almost a nuisance when served hot as much of it fell all over. But the arugula gives you a fresh bite and is the leading taste when it’s cooled. It’s almost like two different dishes. 

 

I’ll be back there, and try a bunch of toppings. Prosciutto is my new favorite.
