Pizza is my favorite food and I love to think of different ingredients to put on a pizza. Sure I love the classic cheese pizza, but pizza is like a blank canvas waiting to be filled. Some of my creations have been delicious, and some have not been so tasty (brownies and jalapenos on a cheese pizza). I have a couple of ideas I am going to try out and thought I would share them. Any ideas other people have would be great, because there are so many different kinds of pizza to be created and tried.
I am going to try making some chinese inspired pizzas. I mean orange chicken, sweet and sour chicken, beef with broccoli, and so many other chinese dishes seem like they would make a great pizza.
For the orange chicken pizza, I think I am going to use some zest from blood oranges and put them in the dough. I am lucky enough to have a couple of blood orange trees. For the orange chicken topping, I will find a good orange chicken recipe and use the sauce from the chicken as the pizza sauce. I am not sure what kind of cheese will go good with orange chicken, so any suggestions would be great. I might try some parm reggiano, and if that does not go well just keep trying different cheeses till I find one that works. As a garnish for the baked pizza I think some scallions sauted in some butter and orange flavored liqeur might be good, or maybe I will just stick with raw chopped scallions.
After I get a good recipe for orange chicken pizza, I will move on to other chinese pizzas.
I hope people have lots of great pizza ideas to share.
