One I’ve tried is cucumber with tomato sauce. It didn’t taste so bad.
Pineapple, pepperoni, and jalapeño turns out pretty good on a pizza.
The best 3topping in existence, hands down.
My theory on why people don’t like pineapple on pizza is that most of them pair it with sweet ham, so they lose the full effect of the spicy/sweet/salty combo. Pineapple on pizza is amazing, hawaiian pizza is an abberant form that should be removed off menus everywhere and replaced with the true god-king: The PPJ.
That’s peak Pizza for me! Especially with both pepperoni and sucuk (turkish garlic salami that’s basically available in every Pizza delivery place in Germany).
Hehe I tried to put pineapple on a zapiekanka (polish kind of pizza --> https://cuisineworld.org/recipes/zapiekanka-polish-open-faced-sandwich/) the polish guys around wanted to kill me :-D
IMO that’s pretty normal, maybe even classic!
Also, how are black olives so bad and other olives so good? I’ve never understood it. Kalamata olives would be so much tastier.
My father decided saurkraut on pizza would be nice. Thank goodness I’m coeliac or I’d have been obliged to try some…
Swedish people have made it a science to have wierd pizza toppings. One example is the banan pizza 🙃
Banana pizza is child’s play! In Skellefteå they have reached peak WTFery in the pizza game, let me present the “Calskrove”: https://www.tasteatlas.com/calskrove
It’s a Calzone, with a baked in “skrovmål” (double patty burger + fries). Enjoy!
As an extra special treat, I get a pizza Hawaii (yes, with pineapple) with extra sauce hollandaise, feta cheese and banana. I realise this is hardly “pizza” anymore but I have no other word for it.
Another special treat is Nutella, salami, strawberry jam and gouda, in that exact order, on bread (as what Anglophones apparently call an “open-faced sandwich”). It’s a fucking mess.
Not mine and I wouldn’t recommend it, but in Barcelona once I had a pizza with octopuss and potato.
To this day it remains the only pizza I did not want to finish.
Once I tried Hawaiian pizza with cherries on top. That’s my pizza I did not want to finish. But I probably wouldn’t want to even try the octopus and potato one either.
I’ve had (sweet) potato work on a pizza before, the pieces need to be pretty thin to cook properly. The octopus was overcooked on that one and the potato were large chunks and undercooked.
Jesus fucking Christ, I’m Italian and when I was in Korea we tried a couple of pizzas (it’s always fun to see how foreign countries make it) and they were all so damn sweet. Turns out they put sweet potatoes everywhere.
Potatoes and octopus doesn’t sound bad tho! I’m not sure I’ve ever seen it but I sure would try it (if they’re well cooked that is)
