What kind of person leaves the crust? Pizza ain’t pizza without the crust.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Probably people eating crappy or stale pizza, a good fresh pizza has delicious crust, but let it sit and it turns tough, dry and chewy

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yes the only time I would leave the crust is if the pizza is old and stale, and it needs to be really stale, basically as long as it's not harder than my teeth I'll still eat the crust.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Somewhat stale pizza can also be quickly improved by throwing a slice into an air fryer for a couple minutes, even crisping up the crust a bit

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Yeah that's nice but I also enjoy cold pizza out of the fridge tbh. Just that issue with the crust after 24/48h

Kids tend to leave the crust because it doesn't have all the texture and flavor of the cheesy, saucy main part. My kids will happily eat crusts if offered after they've left the table, but it doesn't occur to them to eat it when there's more pizza to eat!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

I leave it for last, and if I feel full I just don't eat it. Unless I'm eating it at home, then it becomes bearkfast for the next day

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

I don't know, I really like thin crust pizza with toppings all the way to the edge, square cut. There is no crust.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The crust is for the garlic cream.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I have to try making this instead of garlic butter next time. Is it just garlic, salt, and heavy whipping cream? Or maybe Mexican cream?

Tomato sauce!

Mozzarella!

Absolutely no problem, I love the crust!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Me too unless its that greasy "greek style" garbage that was probably frozen for months.

I'm going to be the heathen, the crust on a good pizza is the best part.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What is to you a good pizza? If you like the crust better, we might have a different concept of what a good pizza is.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

On a good pizza, the crust is basically fresh bread. Fresh bread is delicious.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Come to Europe one day, buy bread and enjoy that and buy pizza and enjoy that.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That sounds way more expensive than getting fresh pizza with a good flavorful crust recipe.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Sure but you'll change your mind about which part is best :))

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

It's a bonus breadstick for dipping in that garlic sauce and dousing the bonus pepper. What's not to love?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

The best part?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Depends, do you eat the crust first?

I was wondering why the arrow head had something that looks like an aura surrounding it. Turns out the head is just a pizza cutter.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 month ago

Crusts are breadsticks

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Crust is important to counter the greasiness of the center. When I eat pizza, I alternate between the center and the crust so that the average mouth feel on any two consecutive bites remains roughly the same.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

I just add toppings that counter it. Like pickled jalapeño.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Do the old fold and drip.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

I gave my co-worker some of my homemade pizza for lunch and she didn't eat the crust. I felt invalidated as a human being. That shit was flawless - pillowy chew with great mouth feel and just the right amount of brown. Someone needs to stop these psychopaths.

You use the crust to build huts. Obviously.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm going to start a fight now by revealing that I dip the crusts in milk sometimes.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Half condensed milk, half sugar, add vinegar until it thickens stirring well, add some garlic to taste.

Great dipping souce. Halifax donair sauce also fantastic with garlic fingers

I think the crust is good but not as good as the rest of the pizza. Of course, I will still eat the crust along with the non-crust part.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Jokes aside, this is both great tribute and super-disrespectful.

Was that the intended aim?

This is basically Bugsnax
