Pizza Toppings
A Selection of the Most Varied Combinations

The classic and simplest pizza topping consists of peeled, seeded tomatoes, braised with garlic in olive oil to a thick puree, and seasoned with a pinch of oregano. Topped with mozzarella cheese, you have the simplest of all pizzas, but the light yeast dough naturally goes with many kinds of toppings.
An interesting version: cooked artichoke hearts, onion rings, and black olives are arranged over the tomato puree with Gorgonzola melted on top.
Another interesting version is made with creme fraiche, scallions, German sausage, and marjoram, and does not need tomatoes.
Shrimp, tomatoes, chopped garlic, and Fontina cheese are baked on yeast dough.
A lavish topping consisting of tomatoes, eggplant, zucchini, bell peppers, ham, anchovies, and Fontina cheese is as appropriate as
the combination consisting of red and yellow bell peppers, Italian salami, onions, olives, thyme, and Fontina cheese.
