Who puts anchovies on their pizza?

[Hayabusa Rider]

For my tastes anchovies have too strong a flavor and are best used sparingly.

I make my own pizzas and what I'll do is take just one or two and mince them finely and put them in the sauce so it's not overwhelming.

Tried it once and only once. Too salty and really fishy tasting.

Hellz no. Bacon, yes.
Anchovies in a sauce? Sure!

Oh, I love anchovies, but I'm convinced that bacon is THE ultimate pizza topping.

 

[ImpulsE69]

I prefer brine shrimp

 

[preslove]

I like them in pasta sauce, but only have had them on a pizza once, in Rome. It was ok, but I don't order pizza enough anymore to do it here.

This.

Once a week I will purchase a dozen or so large cheese pizzas with Anchovies and have them sent to the local Salvation Army Soup Kitchen for the transients to enjoy!!


Yes!! I enjoy anchovies on all my pizza`s!!

Pineapple is not a pizza topping.

I like anchovies and will eat them out of the can or in an antipasto. I just dont like them on pizza. The oil that the anchovies are packed in permeates the entire pizza. You end up with the entire pizza tasting like anchovies and it becomes overload.

I was an anchovie hater for a long time until I actually tried some thanks to my wife. Anchovies are now a must for pasta dishes. Don't add any salt to anything, just use anchovies.

I love em in nicoise salad

Only tried it once and loved it. Mom came home from evening shift, went to pick us up a pizza, some guy ordered one with anchovies and never picked it up, so she got that for a discount.

I don't get pizza on my own usually for some reason, and when I do, it's usually just pepperoni.

No.

Fruit is not a pizza topping.

 

[brandonb]

I've only had it once about 10 years ago.

I just remember it tasting like tuna or sardines (not bad, flavor was good) but too salty for my tastes. I wouldn't mind having it again, but I'd rather have my usual:

Sliced Sausage, Diced Tomato, Beef, Heavy Cheese and Heavy Sauce.

As Craig234 said. Pineapple is actually really good on Pizza too. It's either Tomato or Pineapple on the options above.

Anchovies and Jalapeno peppers pizza for me please.

 

[ghost03]

Anchovies and Jalapeno peppers pizza for me please.

Oh, I'm going to try that next for sure.

Thanks for all the replies everyone! Keep 'em coming!

The problem with anchovies, due to the high salt content, is that you will be thirsty for hours. If you eat a pizza so adorned, you could easily be up all night drinking water because you will be that thirsty.

 

[AznAnarchy99]

Not really a big fan of anchovies but I had them in South Italy an it was amazing. Not on pizza though.

 

[crabbyman]

I do not like seafood at all. Add in the fact hot anchovies small like dirty cooter..bleck!

I used to deliver pizza and there was an old woman who would always order the same thing....extra anchovy pizza and a 2L of Pepsi.

The drivers all tried to find a way to pass the buck. It did not help she waited to get her exact change back and slam the door in your face.

What made it worse was the lingering stinky fish smell that did not leave your car for ...years.
