Had a pizza in Spain yesterday - pear, walnut and gorgonzola

Was absolutely stunning

I used to work at a pizzeria that had fig, pistachio, and arugula dressed with truffle honey. It was very popular.

Okay now THAT is weird. How did they prepare the pear? Big slices or little?

That has always been a pretty classic combo on cheeseboards. Probably that is why they came up with the idea to put it on pizza. My favorite pizzeria has it on the regular menu too. They make thin slices of halved pears for it, so the pear is not raw after baking.

That’s…actually a good point. Maybe not as weird as I thought.

I love that sweet and salty. Sea salt caramel. Prosciutto fig pizza. Chocolate pretzels.

I’ve had similar pizzas in the US. “Sweet pizzas”, so to speak, were all the rage in the mid 2010s. More often, they were branded as flatbreads.

I’ve made pizza topped with a brandy peach sauce (peaches sautéed in brandy, nutmeg, butter), bourbon blueberry syrup, and taleggio. Even better is peaches, arugula, and brie.

My favorite kind of pizza is a bacon lettuce tomato, with a mess of mayo to top it off. Chefs kiss*

I’ve had a similar one too! Very good. Non citrus fruit + funky cheese, + nuts is always a great combo.

This feels like a more widely available of habanero mango combination

Peanut butter on hamburgers. Really nice contrast especially if you also include pickles

This is the one I came here to post. Tried it at a brew pub I liked, I figured they wouldn’t steer me wrong.

It’s a bit messy once the burger starts really melting the peanut butter, but it reminded me of satay w/ peanut sauce.

No pickles for me though, I can’t seem to get with the taste of cucumber in any form I’ve tried.

Not unusual but not common is fish sauce on your fried or scrambled eggs.

I have also seen someone added fish sauce into their chili. Not a lot, just a splash for the whole pot. It works.

I use it instead of Worcestershire sauce in my gravies.

Do not use Worcestershire sauce as embalming fluid!

There’s fish in Worcestershire sauce, iirc…

I hadn’t known that, until reading the fine print…

I do this. All the umami.

fish sauce and a little cornstarch (optional) in your scrambled egg mix and then dump it into screaming oil for 30 seconds and you get a basic thai omelette. Sooooooo good with sriracha.

I love adding fish sauce to my stir fry with eggs, this sounds like it would work similarly

I rather go for soy sauce and a bit of starch in the beaten egg to make really thin umami omelette type things.

A can of condensed tomato soup, 1 can of milk, pad of butter, 1/2 cup(or more) instant rice. Lets soup come to near boil, turn off heat, add rice., cover and let steep for about 8 minutes.

I sometimes will toss in tomato soup instead of water when using a rice cooker when I’m sick and just want carbs and salt and liquid. It’s adequate.

Yes, empty the can of condensed soup into a pot, then fill the empty can with milk instead of water then empty than into the pot.
