I'm still waiting the rest of the world to find out that there are so many types of pizza with no cheese
That's just bread. Pizza is bread topped with sauce and cheese, end of discussion.
Not according to the Italians. You'd be astonished at how unimportant they consider cheese as a topping. It's the bread and the sauce that matter. Everything else is a garnish.
Like sandwich, pizza has come to mean a lot of different things. New York style pizza and Chicago style pizza are absolutely not the same thing, but they're both still pizza.
I share the opinion that pizza is bread with sauce and cheese.
However, I am open to change my mind because there is always room for more pizza in my life. What's everyone's favorite non-cheese pizzas?
Where does pizza fall in sandwich theory?
It's a casserole.
Only the Chicago deep dish pizza.
Open face sandwich
Pizza is a flat taco.
No friend, you're thinking of tostada
I've had pizza with spaghetti squash instead of cheese. It was surprisingly good, and much more filling than normal pizza.
If your pizza is same as bread then you're eating terrible pizza, I'm sorry
Pizza is a type of flatbread! Look it up in your encyclopaedia of choice.
If your bread isn't good enough to be pizza dough, then you're eating terrible bread. I'm sorry.
It's a type of flat bread. It's not sandwich bread.
Pizza and bread have different preparations, cooking, and sometimes they are even made with different ingredients. Certainly you wouldn't say pasta is bread too only because it's made with flour and water, for example
pizza is just bread, you don't need cheese, end of discussion. there's marinara for example
I’d rather have pizza with no cheese than pizza with no red sauce but again, it’s like saying I’d rather have no green cones than no red cones in my eyes. Having both adds and extra dimension.
Yes, please. Expose yourselves. It is a fate most gruesome that awaits the cheese deniers
I explained more in detail in another comment here, but to be short I can list some like pizza farcita, focaccia, marinara etc
Blessed are the cheesemakers.
Explain yourself!
In Italy cheese is absolutely not required, even if Margherita is the most common base so most pizzas have cheese. Even so, there are many types of pizza with no cheese, and many others with no tomato.
It's also very common to see pizza farcita, which you can imagine as a pizza sandwich. For example a very common one is "pizza e mortazza" in Rome, which is a pure puzza with no topping but filled with mortadella (a type of ham). But various kinds of fillings are possible
Another example would be focaccia, most of them don't have any cheese at all.
There is even sweet pizza with no cheese, for example pizza with Nutella
Lol, no there aren't. Do you mean vegan cheese?
marinara is one of the best pizza I've tried. can't come up with other examples. but not everyone thinks cheese is somehow necessary
Yes. Well not everyone can be right about everything. Cheese is one of exactly 3 critical ingredients for what we call Pizza.
thanks america, but you bread is like bun. I don't take you guys seriously with food
What is this, Theseus' pizza? How many of the traditional ingredients can you replace and still consider it a pizza?
What defines something as pizza is the base, not the toppings. Of course there are some common and more classic toppings, but those include also no cheese pizzas
The base is bread. The pizza is defined as the base + cheese + tomato sauce + various toppings.
Source: the dictionary.
The base is not bread. Even your definition doesn't call it bread. It's pizza. And a random American dictionary is hardly a source.
Also, pizza is older than tomato in Europe...
Here's an Italian dictionary, if talking with an Italian wasn't enough
