I'm a fan of the "quattro formaggi" (four cheese) pizza. Fresh mozzarella, provolone, gorgonzola, and parmesan.
What kind of toppings do you like on your pizza?
-
Pepperoni 5 lyfe. Also, any type of chicken is pretty good, too.
-
anchovies

Heck yeah, pepperoni rules. I like pepperoni on "white pizza" with hot sauce.
A spot by me makes a "chicken ranch" pie - chicken, bacon, onions, ranch dressing, and mozzarella cheese.
Love both!

sausage with mushroom lathered with tapatio

Pancetta and arugula with arrabbiata sauce and fresh mozzarella, asiago and parmesan. Capacola, salami, peppadew and pfefferoni with fire roasted tomato basil sauce mozzarella and pecorino romano. Then my take on the Hawaiian with smoked ham, fire roasted pineapple, carmelized red onion, sriracha sauce and white cheddar. Sometimes I just go with the basics too like sausage and mushrooms or peperoni, banana peppers and green olives.

You badmamajama. That sounds awesome.
-
prosciutto, fig, and arugula.. yum!
anchovies are good too
-
just cheese tomato sauce bazil. mozzarella di bufala + parmigiano as cheeses.
san marzano tomatoes. olive oil. stuff. good pizza.
so classic. neapolitan style.
oor being from sweden; we have 'kebab pizza' which is döner kebab meat on pizza with garlic sauce+red sauce and salad. also fantastic. but it's more of a NYC style base.
check it out: http://melindaenglundh.myshowroom.se/files/2011/03/P3268748.JPG

anchovies
+10
Extra sauce - very important
Extra cheese - any and all types
Pepperoni, of course
Olives, black and green
Green peppers
Onions
Nothing sweet, ever!
-
I have two favorites:
1) Meat Lovers'
2) Grilled Chicken, Portabellas, and as much variety of cheese as you can muster.

jeez you people put a lot of crap on your pizzas....

Feta & bacon

I like aubergine on pizza. I like properly cooked aubergine most times, but it is really great on pizza.
And yes, pizza should have a thin (but not too thin) crust and be cooked in a wood-burning oven, Italian style.

Kebab pizza could also be döner kebab meat without cold ingredients, or made with shish kebab.
The most unusual pizza topping I have ever seen must be a "Pizza IFK" (for a sports team) from a restaurant in Gothenburg: Pork tenderloin, banana slices, garam masala (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garam_masala), faux béarnaise sauce (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C3%A9arnaise_sauce) and ... peanuts.

Do you even fold your pizza?! :p
-
sausage and jalapeno, or pepperoni with bbq sauce
-
I always get Extra Extra Extra Cheese + Extra tomato sauce.
Because I like the cheese way more than the pizza. .
-
Pineapple chunks and green bell pepper. Especially in a deep dish pizza it is delicious.
-
Barbecue chicken and bacon
-
All the weird ones.
Pineapple, chorizo, artichokes, anchovies, any cheese, black olives.
I went through a phase of having garlic butter on my pizzas too. So juicy. So good...
-
I'll eat anything except olives and anchovies.
I'm very partial to Italian Sausage that has an ass ton of Fennel seed.
-
why would you want toppings on your pizza
that ruins a perfectly good pizza
pepperoni is OK, because it's a classic, but if you're one of those people who just gets sausage we're gonna have problems

There is a pizza place down the street from me that makes a pizza with tons of pepperoni. It's called the Ninja Turtle, and it's tasty.
that's actually pretty funny
-
Anything spicy, if I can. Anchovies a must (which stops most people from wanting to eat my precious pizza).
Something with BBQ sauce for variety every now and again.
-

variety is the spice of life, mi amigo. ;)

I just made 'fake pizza' - http://www.seriouseats.com/2014/10/cast-iron-skillet-tortilla-pizza-bar-pie-food-lab.html
but ground beef that I spiced with ground up spanish chili + hungarian paprika pepper + oregano + garlic + diced pickled onion + coriander+cumin.
try it, go wild with da toppings, this **** is good and so easy.
-
Pepperoni for the win - That remains on my go to list. From time to time I will mix it up with some bell peppers and sausage.
And I prefer regular hand tossed crust ^__^

Even easier.. butter pan.. White bread, fry both sides, tomato sauce, then cheese.

There's this: Maddox's "Pepperoni is for *******s and idiots"
I love that ****. Pepperoni and extra cheese is my go to pizza.

That line was pretty great and I have moments where I wish that line was relevant in my life.
My initial reaction watching the video was a defensive "**** you!" but it turned out pretty damn funny.
He's got some pretty funny stuff for anyone who hasn't seen his other videos.

all y'all chumps because the best pizza involves roasted garlic cloves. it's like the conductor of an orchestra. or the wind beneath my wings

I'm a bit boring but I love red/green bell peppers, red onions, mushrooms, and sausages.

Pork is not so popular here so im always craving bacon :p :p :p

ahh yes, I guess that is true :p I was just thinking the most common one that I know of.
swedish pizzas really are bizarre. too many options. makes you wonder how fresh most ingredients really are!
-
Bacon, Kebab, Minced Meat, Ham, Shrimp, Egg, Buffalos milk cheese and smetana is heavy duty hangover reliever for me.
-

ikr, special times when pizza is "free" e.g. friends fridge, left overs in meeting rooms, work fridge eatcetera any toppings on it seems to taste twice as good

Rocket and prosciutto

where does the toppings stop and the pizza begin

You would hate Rocky Mountain style then. It's basically all topping.

pfefferoni
Didn't know this word even exists in English..
As for a topping: Mozzarella with prosciutto and basil.

Margherita!

mozzarella ?
that's the main ingredient.. I've always felt prosciutto was a waste if you heat it up and cook it with other things, cuz they drown out the flavor and/or weaken/muddle it.
haven't had basil on pizza.. will try nx time.

The prosciutto should not be cooked the same time as the pizza, it will become dry and will taste like cardboard. Add it around 5 min onto it just to mix the flavors, samo goes for the basil.
Edit: As for the mozzarella, if you use the shredded kind like most of the people you are doing something wrong ;)

Agree with everything here. Many toppings are supposed to be put on 2-3 minutes before it's done, or after it comes out of the oven. Burnt arugula, prosciutto, basil, calamari, chanterelles, or whatever is not something anyone wants on their pie. Use your judgment based on the delicacy of the ingredient.

Hope that's cooked calamari you're talking about :))

I've had some interesting stuff on pizzas... like in Hungary I had one that was with gulyas beef, salo, fresh paprika and quail eggs. I've had 'German' pizza with bratwurst, sauerkraut and butterkasse on a rye crust. In my town we have a Chinese pizza place where you can get stuff like kung pow chicken, or crab rangoons. Gyros pizza can be pretty good, but it's more or less just a giant gyro so no big deal. Mexican pizzas can be good, and I've had them with many different ways but I think I liked with carnitas and roasted anahiems with mixed Mexican cheeses best. I'm pretty open to different toppings... but sometimes am not too sure about things like asparagus and lobster.
If I'm using delicate ingredients, I will bake the crust alone then assemble the toppings to pop under the broiler for a minute or two, just long enough to heat it up. Fresh herbs like basil are best put on right before serving and not cooked. Though sometimes if I can't be bothered I will put the toppings under the cheese as most of the time it prevents things from drying out or getting overcooked like.
-
BBQ pulled pork pizza was good, as was BBQ chicken.
Spinach Alfredo was good.
Buffalo Chicken Pizza is good so long as there's no ranch dressing on it. You want ranch? Sprinkle Ranch Seasoning (https://www.hiddenvalley.com/assets/products/_resampled/paddedimage373400-dressingmix-original.png) on top or bake it into the dough.
-
Sausage and broccoli rabe.
Mushroom, sausage, and garlic.
Anchovies, thinly sliced garlic, basil, and olives-- no cheese.
-
Just cheese

Cheese and tomato sauce.. without the crust...
that must be something.. there's probably a name for it.

Spud'nik pizza! With red potato, chives, bacon, red onion, and a creamy alfredo base. Downright delicious :thumb:

Strangest thing I ever had on a pizza was on a pizza Hawaii, which had, besides the obvious pineapple, maraschino cherries and brown sugar on it. I would like to say that I didn't like it, but the sweetness together with the acidity of the tomato sauce, combined with the molten cheese and saltiness of the ham made a okay combination. Nothing for food snobs probably, but it was a good experience. I even tried to make it myself, but it always was to sweet (good for the munchies though).
Personally I prefer a marinara, margherita, napoletana (anchovies and capers) or quatro formaggi.
-
pepperoni, mushrooms, light sauce. donezo
-
Just plain sausage is good too.
That. Italian and pork sausage go great together.
Now I want some pizza
-
Ham, pepper salami, mushrooms and copious amounts of gorgonzola.
When ordering at a restaurant I will put everything that I like on it. So yes, a +10 topping pizza is great.
The most hilarious one was when I was young and a friend of mine joined us on a day out in Germany. He had never had pizza before so he ordered a pizza and fries.
What he got was a pizza with fries on top. XD

I like mushroom.. but I feel like they cut them way too thin for pizzas.. so you barely get any of that mushroom feel..

True, but trust me when I say thicker or bigger mushrooms are not any better. They will just slide/shoot off the pizza or give you a steaming hot beard on your face.

chili padi is important to all the pizza that I eat. And yes, we get them from Pizza Hut and other Western franchises here. I always put far more than the standard supplied amount because they use dried chili padi which is weak-ass.
