Basil. Feta. Kalamata olives.
Italian sausage. No, I know everyone likes it, but that’s still not capturing its full glory: it is the best topping, but most people are like ‘yeah it’s alright but it’s no pepperoni’. No, it’s better than pepperoni, and therefore underrated.
Artichokes are so good on pizza
Not a topping but mustard as a dipping sauce for my pizza crust. I’m not a crust person. But dipping dry crunchy crust into mustard almost feels like eating a pretzel.
Tastes great with pepperoni too.
Anchovies. Salty oily goodness
I used to get it on my pizza at work knowing none of my coworkers would steal it.
None of the pizza places near me even have it as a topping 😭
Olives, Feta
Added some spinach, diced tomatoes, maybe some onions, Greek pizza baby! Amazing pizza.
Rucola, also known as arugula or rocket.
Chopped hazelnuts. I add them if I ever have home cooked pizza
Cashew, chicken, cranberry and Camembert is a good combo.
Kale
sliced reconstituted in wine dried figs with sautéed onion.
Pineapple. Deal with it.
Pepperoni pineapple all day. It’s the best. Fight me.
No, my friend. For it is true.
I do pineapple and bacon instead of the pineapple and ham combo and I think it is far superior.
And for even more exciting flair, I think Korean fried chicken sauce is good on pizza too, with the earthy and spicy gochujang, garlic, and sesame. I’ll add it to any pizza, plain, pepperoni, or pineapple bacon.
I can’t 😭
I’ve been working my way through the pizzas at Pizza Artesanal.
The roasted potato and roasted pumpkin cream were two toppings that really stood out as surprisingly delicious.
Potato.
I mean, have you ever seen potato on a pizza? I haven’t.
Boston Pizza:
Yes, back around 24 years ago I was picking my sister up from her university and went into the student union building. The pizza place inside had a pizza with potatoes, broccoli and some kind of meat. I believe it was called the Sunday dinner pizza.
Mashed potatoes on pizza is incredible and I’m being 100% serious
Oregano. For some reason, my local pizza place takes extra money for putting oregano on the pizza. No problem, I have my own supply of oregano for my pizza.
Power move
Feta.
mmm the best pizza in my town is from a Greek restaurant, and my favorite is with gyro and feta. lawd have mercy…
