Alternative/unusual pizza toppings

[warp9]

Me and some friends have an occasional pizza challenge night, where you turn up at a hosts house and create an amazing/unusual pizza that is then judged by all. Everyone participates.

I've won previously with poached pear and Gorgonzola pizza. (Although not openly admitted, it's a highly competitive event)

This year I'm thinking more Mexican - pulled pork, guacamole, mango salsa and pepper jack cheese.

However, this doesn't feel edgy enough. So what award winning flavour combo's have the PH posse got up their sleeves, that I can snatch this years title with?!

Crab, dill and caviar is my go to.

Go traditional French, and make a Pissaladière

Or nduja. Putting nduja on anything makes it taste amazing.

Valentine Warner did a Pizza Express pizza a few years ago that I can still remember.

Puttanesca - brown anchovies, capers and green and black olives, fresh chillies, lemon oil, lemon zest, garlic oil and fresh oregano.

No cheese.

Was fantastic.

Creme Fraiche in place of tomato base, smoked bacon/pancetta scattered all over with red onion slices.
Cook then add either slices of reblochon or a salty/strong blue cheese.

Server scattered with basil.

Marmite.

Pizza bianca (no tomato) -

With some scorched leeks, taleggio cheese, sliced mushroom and truffle oil.

A bit different.

Boom!

I second this. It would work very nicely with shaved fennel too.

Basically a tartiflette pizza, which is what I was going to suggest.

We have a Turkish fig tree that produces loads of fruit twice a year. This is a cracking recipe and dead simple.

Gordon Ramsay made a sweet pizza on the tv road trip currently on ITV.

Now I can't remember what ingredients he used but the pizza chef in the alleged oldest pizzeria in Naples approved.

pizza oven...iirc.

Salted ricotta and nutella, rolled like a burrito and then shaped like a ring, is also very good (trademark Pizza Pilgrims)
