and can only include three ingredients (I'll give you tomato-based sauce and cheese if desired as a bonus). What are they?

Dough would be right up there.

[Proper Gander]

Let’s assume the dough is there.

Classic passata, mozzarella and fresh basil

I’ll take the cheese and tomato sauce ‘less offered as a base and go with prosciutto, rocket and fetta

That’s 5 though

 

[Proper Gander]

Also what place does fetta cheese have on a pizza?

Australians … sigh

It's delicious.

 

[Proper Gander]

Ahah!

We’ve reached a point where Less gets to make the internet rules. Fair enough, probably true.

 

[Proper Gander]

It's delicious.

It’s out of place and fetta itself has said (and I have this on good authority) that it prefers being delicious in its more traditional homes

I'm having none of that.

I'm having none of that.

Even when I told you that I had it from the cheese’s mouth?

Consider the term 'the big cheese'. Which cheese do you think it was originally referring to?

It’s a good question. I’ll approach it without googling.

I’m sensing you are suggesting the answer is fetta.

I was thinking Parmesan as those wheels can be massive.

 

[Proper Gander]

Still without googling, I can’t believe that the origin of the phrase is feta.

Parmesan wheels possible but I’m not convinced a specific cheese is the origin of the phrase.


I hope Less is onboard with the latest derail

 

[Proper Gander]

So is someone going to tell me the real origin of the big cheese as a saying, or do we keep going with the fascinating pizza topping thread?

 

[Proper Gander]

And yes, Less, I see you. I know your game here…

Anybody taking mushroom?

Funghi pizza on a white base with truffle oil

 

[Headless]

Anybody taking olives?

 

[Bluelegs]

Anybody taking olives?

No.

Funghi pizza on a white base with truffle oil

Sigh.

If you have a white base pizza Roman style the best you’re going to get is traditional with potato and rosemary.

And I still know what you’re up to less
