Wabis thread on pickled herring made me think of anchovies on pizza (never had either). Living in a small town I think we're lucky to have a pizza hut, although we don't eat pizza often I've always been curious about anchovies. Our pizza hut doesn't offer them as a topping. You guys like them?

I can eat them, salty, oily taste. Years back, I was curious, The old Lavern, and Shirly show they talked about them.

I think most anchovies go for fish meal as a hog feed.

Super salty and fishy tasting. If I am going to eat an anchovy pizza I add pineapple. The sweetness helps cut the saltiness of the anchovies.

I like to put them on after the pizza is cooked .Otherwise they disappear and all you taste is the salt

Before our Pizza Hut went under, they seemed to have somehow lost the recipe for pizza and no one noticed that there should be cheese included.

Ex liked them. I don’t mind them but never remember to add them.

Good to know. Next time wife makes pizzas I'm gonna try saddlesores method. Maybe add some when the pizza is getting close to done. So super salty? Probably go easy with them.?

It greatly enhances the pizza if you set the anchovies outside while baking the pizza, then leave them there when it is served.

I like anchovies on Pizza. Dont know anywhere that does it anymore.

I'm not sure where to buy the little fish.

Last nights pizza had none.

Nalivka's in Havre, MT will put on your anchovies for you.




Never had it on a pizza but i keep some around for making pizza and pasta sauce. Anchovy paste as well.

Square pizza is best.


You can fit two pans in the oven at the same time. Round pans, only one at a time.

Walmart or most any grocery store has anchovies. To cut down on the oil and salt I rinse them in cold running water before adding them to the pizza. I used to get them at Pizza Hut, asked for them on the side as no one else in the family liked them.

A shortage of anchovies ran the bean market way up in 73, or so. The catch off the coast of Peru just dried up for a few months.

I'm intrigued. Have to talk to the wife about this...

Anchovies and onions, well done is a favorite.

Nobody, I mean nobody around here eats them

I always go my pizza "with everything".


Driving truck, got an everything pizza in LA.
It had these nasty, hairy, salty, fishy, things on it.
The taste ran through the pizza, taking them off did nothing.

Happened in Upstate New York, different pieces, same nasty taste.

Did it once more, finally learned.

Now I order "Everything, no fish".
Places in this area look at you funny,
some say, "We don't even have anchovies", others are completely
lost.


Anchovies?


HELL NO!

Eugene's in Glasgow has them also. Voted best pizza in the state several times.

No anchovies for rme. YMMV
