Fresh tomatoes whether it’s grape, cherry, beefsteak, or roma add a nice juicy bite every once in a while
Pineapple. Of all the people that hate it, I’m not convinced the majority have tried it (exceptions for those who hate pineapple on its own)
Edit: also it’s best under white pizza
The first time I smoked weed we ordered a pineapple pizza and I… proceeded to pick all the caramelized pineapple off… bit by bit. Oh cringe. But it was so good.
Def agree but the experience may vary greatly from “best you ever had” to “dfq this is trash” depending on the freshness of the pineapple and the skill/determination of the cook. Like pineapple pizza is hard to get right but if you get it right it’s extremely good
Feta. Sure, pizza tends to be already covered in cheese, but this is different cheese, and that is a good thing. I think it goes well with some of my other faves, such as green olives, pineapple, banana peppers.
Salami. It’s like pepperoni, but different.
Alfredo sauce instead of tomato sauce, together with a few toppings like chicken and red onion, is heavenly, and doesn’t seem to cause heartburn.
I agree regarding the Feta (and then Tsatsiki on top, it’s heaven). Otherwise: Margherita is simply the best.
The underrated combos is where the gains are.
Anchovies with olives and capers.
We all know pineapple and Canadian bacon (can also be Spam).
Pepperoni and jalapeños.
Blue cheese, fig, and caramelized onion.
Pesto as the sauce under the cheese and fresh or sun dried tomatoes on top.
Pepperoni and jalapenos is my favorite but it is also the kryptonite to my usually indestructible digestive system. I get green peppers instead which is still very good but not the same.
Anchovies with olives and capers.
Salt, salt and salt? I’m on board, but I wonder how many other people would be.
Capers are pickled, so they bring the acid, along with the tomato sauce. The rest is major umami punch, but you go veeeery sparingly.
Jalapenos are too important to me to not consider them generally underrated.
Mushrooms
One time I made a pizza with cremini, wood ear fungus, chanterelles, morels, shiitake, oyster, and enoki mushrooms. I called it “fungal infection” and it was delicious.
Pineapple and pepperoni, Prosciutto, Salami, Hot sauce/hot honey, Buffalo sauce/bbq sauce instead of pizza sauce
One of my favorites is bbq sauce, brisket, cheese and, hear me out, diced pickles
shallots!
My toppings of choice are olives, mushrooms, and pineapple.
Try it before you judge me: pineapple, anchovies, a tad Tabasco. It’s absolutely brilliant.
We can be friends.
My absolute favorite pizza is: white pizza (no red sauce), mozz of course, shrimp, bacon, spinach, and some fresh garlic, preferably sliced and roasted. All on a thin New Haven style crust. If you’re ever in New Haven and go to BAR, it will be an incredible pizza.
Spicy beef
Chives, fresh or dry. It started as a joke when a buddy and I made the pizza from System of a Down’s Chik N’ Stu song and I’ve never gone back.
Fresh, they bring this green crispness that contrasts really well with the other ingredients. Dry chives burn a little in the baking process but in all the right ways, giving the whole pizza a deep smoky taste that feels amazing.
FETA CHEESE!
With sun dried tomatoes, pesto, chunked garlic and cashews.
I love you
Love you too kind internet stranger!
I love cranberry and camembert pizza
I love pineapple, the sweetness goes great with other savory toppings.
Pineapple, sausage, and Jalepeno is my go to because I usually have those in the freezer
Ooo, Salty Sausage or Savory Sausage?
