Toppings?
I want to make a pizza from scratch soon, but I'm not certain what to put on it...

On his: Ham and mushroom
On mine: Olives, anchovies and asparagus.

What I learned: you can make pizza dough with any old flower, but it's probably worth getting some nice wholemeal flour rather than making do with whatever you have in the cupboard. With anchovies. Less is definitely more. If you're going to put asparagus on pizza, cut it up in to manageable lengths first.

Olives are a straight no.

don't make it with any old flour
use OO flour or it'll be shite. And don't use wholemeal. And get a pizza stone.

Spicy sausage, black olives, mushrooms, jalapenos.

from experience I like
pepperoni, chorizo and then 2 or more from sliced jalapenos, mushroom, green pepper, onion.

Don't forget, mozzarella THEN toppings THEN a sprinkle of parmesan.

Barbecued chorizo is excellent.
Word to the wise.

Nonononono, you want bits of the toppings to crisp up, so you layer it like
this, only with all the ingredients. I like Sundried Toms, ham, a sprinkle of chopped chili and garlic and motzerlla.

I'm thinking of making the tomato base with chilli already in
Then going for pepperoni, chorizo, pastrami, ham, german sausage, things like that.

Then, just to stop people from nicking any, I might put some pineapple on it. *hides from DG*

I totally dig pineapple in pizza, espsesh with a few jelipons so you get hot and sweet tastes.

That's if I'm going for what is essenchally a savory doughnut, ala Pizza Hut

( G/PP 💩💩💩💩💩&#128, Mon 25 Jul 2011, 10:18, Reply)

Do you think I should make the tomato base a spicy, garlicy type one?

( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Mon 25 Jul 2011, 10:20, Reply)

Just remember not to then use the same spices/garlic on the top
or it can get quite intense.

I'm thinking of spending the most time on the sauce, get it strong and spicy
Then just layering meat around it, and having cheese over the top.

You have never been more wrong
bread/base, then tomato sauce, then mozarella cheese, then toppings, then a bit of grated/shaved parmesan and/or grana padano on top but not much.
