Topping Your Pizza

[chubbyalaskagriz]

Most have a preferred habit. Some spread sauce, pile on the goodies- then scatter cheese last.

Others do it in the opposite order.

I brush sauce very lightly onto a half-baked crust (versus spooning a larger amount of sauce) then scatter the cheese- then place the remaining ingredients atop the cheese.

I think I started doing it this way when cooking for staff meals in restaurant kitchens years ago- so the employees could tell apart the types of pizza- so that all the "goodies weren't all hidden from view under the gooey cheese.

What's your preference?

Sauce - cheese - toppings

In fact I have just received instructions from on high, that tonight we will have pizza woo hoo

[chubbyalaskagriz]

I'm thinkin' tonight may be pizza-nite at my place too, rick. I've got some leftover sloppy joe meat and believe it or not, this w/ cheddar cheese and chopped raw red onion makes a damn fine pizza!

I've always wanted to make a BBQ pizza with shredded left over brisket, some bbq sauce and either montery jack or quesadila cheese.

Of course the brisket never lasts that long around here

My favorite Pizza is a white cheese with spinach, it is too yummy!!!

Rick that BBQ pizza sounds different, I would give it a try!

I ain't got a thing against tomato sauce- but somtimes I like a white pizza made just w/ garlic butter or even alfredo suace in place of traditional tomato sauce. Also love pesto on pizza of course!

I'll top a pizza with anything - any sometimes no cheese or pepperoni - one of my favorites is a nice soft-crust pizza tipped with a diced tomato/onion/pepper sauce with varely a sprinkle of grated cheese.

sometimes I stuff my crust - sometimes I put a cover on top of my pizza with lots of goodies stuffed inside

May not be correct but I start with the sauce, then Italian seasoning, then the toppings and finally the cheese. You will be able to see the topping under my cheese since I can only use very little. (Its a sodium issue).

I season my sauce with herbs and I don't sprinkle any additionalon the pizza - no need to.

I love your recipe. I had an unfortunate dream that I can make a better pizza that the restaurant, I happen to be a cheese lover, well i was in for a rude awakening I piled lots of cheese using your recipe I mean lots and baked this incredible pie eager and excited for my first taste only to find that there was so much cheese in my first bite that I began to choke, I certainly agree with you a little of everything is just right for the taste
