Onions are a great, and much unappreciated, pizza condiment.
“Onions are a great, and much unappreciated, pizza condiment.”
Raw onions cooked on top of a pizza? No thanks. Now caramelized onions might be a different story. Unfortunately whenever I ordered onions on pizza, raw onions were put on and were harsh.
Same thing as mushrooms. First of all, using canned mushrooms is a sin. Raw sliced shrooms aren’t much better. Sauteed mushrooms, on the other hand...
I agree about onions being great on pizzas. But I always like pepperoni topping the veggies. Even a generous amount of parsley is good on pizza if pepperoni is on top to flavor it. I tear the pepperoni slices up to make them go further and to blend in better with the other toppings. Since the outer edge of the crust gets done fastest, I add more moisture via sauce, cheese, veggies, and pepperoni to the outer edge to the extent some runs off onto the seasoned pan and still cooks up nice.
Much like the thread about kiwifruit on pizza, some people are not willing to try different toppings. I happen to like onions also, but no chain seems to carry one of my preferred toppings, Zucchini.
