Favorite pizza topping?

[itsstillmatt]

Related, obviously, to the NYC vs. Chicago thread, what do you prefer on your pizza? My three favorite, the first two of which I will be having tonight, are broccoli rabb, margherita and white with arugula and proscuitto.

Yours?

im more of a neanderthal.

pepperoni

sausage

extra cheez

 

[robin]

Real mozzarella.

 

[gdl203]

Just tomato
Real mozzarella - not too much! - and fresh basil
Prosciutto (cotto or crudo)
I also love a simple tomato, anchovies and olives pizza
Bianca (no cheese)
Tasty mushroom and herbs
Fennel & onion

Three favorite toppings?

Proscuitto
Carmelized onions
Mushroom
Fresh basil
Pesto

Sorry, couldn't do three

 

[chronoaug]

creme fresh
lobster
caviar
black truffles
saffron
gold flakes



Now that i have elitist points, fresh homemade ingredients are generally best. Depends on where i'm going and what kinda pizza i'm getting. Fresh mozz is always great. I've been to a place that has some incredible pepperoni and homemade meatballs that are really fantastic on the pizza. If i can find good prosciutto it's money on pizza.

I've never really had a pesto pizza i've enjoyed that much. I've had solid white pizza but good pesto pizza has always eluded me

I hope you never combine your lobster with gold flakes. That is so overkill, it's gauche.

And Sho'Nuff, the foie would just render down to a puddle of oil in a pizza oven. Pleb.

I thought i saw a place when watching a pizza special on travel channel about a restaurant (in nyc maybe) that served a pizza just like that (without gold probably) here's a fun link http://tripatlas.com/articles/169/

That's why you use a gold lobster.

The whole concept of pizza is that you dress it before you cook it. What you just described, ain't "pizza." Pleb.
