Okay, Pizza Deflorata next time.

Ok! Up with the recipe book now,

I call it Pizza „Tonno“ con cipolla, noce, uva passa, dillo e finocchio.

Or is that too long? Oh, and honey is in it, too.

Hot Sicilian - (pepperoni,peppers,chillies,jalapenos) on thin crust.The 'ring of fire' the next morning though is a stinger!

I have a new favourite, I think - Pizza Scampi with dill and - lemon grass.

Yes, indeed that: lemon grass. No oregano, no basil, thyme, or rosemary. No garlic.

I had two attempts at this one, first time the ammounts of spice I had not right. It is a very differently tastinging pizza, lacking the typical Italian pizza flavour, being very mild, but exotic, fruity, fresh, and a very interesting arome. The scampi need to rest in a marinade (?) of dill (1-2 coffee spoons)and (dried) powdered lemon grass (3 coffee spoons) for 3-4 hours. Add some splashes of citron juice, and for the last 20-30 minutes a very small ammount of olive oil. Use a mortar&pestle, that lemon gras really is tougher than chewing gum. Some black pepper, some salt, but not much. No other spices than these. Cheese is a mixture of fresh Mozarella, dried Mozarelly, Parmesan (yeah, I know the chorus now... ), and Edam.

I need to try more spices different from the usual bunch of suspects (oregano, thyme, rosemary, basil) and the like. With a well-done dough, it is nice, mand spices with milder aromes allow the taste of the dough to become more obvious to the tongue.

Damn it Sky, no recipee posting after 18:00 (central european time), some of us are trying to loose weight

[Skybird]

What else to be tried?! I tried
-Spinaci
-Thuna
-Tre Stagioni (thirds of Salami, Champignons, Bell Pepper)
-Margherita
-Scampi

Onion, maybe ? But I am no fan of Flamish onion cake, so I am not really fascinated. Other vegetables? Don't want other vegetables on my pizza than green and red bell pepper. Chicken? Well, pizza is no barbecue, you could as well put pasta onto a pizza, couldn'T you... Potatoes...? What - a French fried pizza...?

Am I through, or what?
Okay, then lets start a thread about diets.

Kebab pizza's are popular here.

What else is there here, dry salami (I believe yenks cal it peperoni) and sour cream (aded after it's taken out of the oven)

A ''spring'' variety, with spring onions, rukola, pepers, sweet corn

What would happen if you'd pour whiskey on a pizza and then put it in the oven

Nothing spectacular, but you have a good chance to ruin the dough, due to the liquid. The oven is 290+ degrees hot over here, the alcohol would evaporate immediately, the water would soften up the dough and make it greasy, then evaporate too, and what is left is an arome of whisky that I know from having tried right this on (sweet) waffles: and it does not taste good. A malt is meant to be taken pure.

Malt on pizza - it even sounds terrible. And for an Italian, it probably would border an offense.

It's late, I'm having bad ideas again
I have bad ideas all the time but most of the time I can dismiss them myself

[Biggles]

Local pizzaplace has a nice little number.

Chèvre
Chicken
Red Onion
Honey

Highly recommend you guys try it if you can cook it up yourself!
