  • You add the arugula and the salad after the base is cooked. Some places cook it with sauce only and add shredded uncooked mozzarella, some cook it with minimal cheese on the pie and add the shaved cheese on the salad. Dealer’s choice.

    Edit: bf is insisting the no cooked cheese is best, with a light vinaigrette. I think it’s worth playing around with it. But a lil dressing is nice.




  • Arugula adds a sharp flavor that really pairs with cheese well. Might be controversial, but I’m a big fan of the salad pizzas. The best tend to be the house salads of romaine, red onion, tomato, and olives up ended atop a good thin crust pizza with plenty of sauce.

    Edit: Oh!! If making an arugula salad pizza, I find it works best when paired with something incredibly salty, like anchovy, used very sparingly, some thinly sliced pecorino romano, and a drizzle of good balsamic (that thick shit, not the watery cheapo one). Throw some halved sweet cherry tomatoes on there and some thin sliced onions? Oh! One of my favorite meals after a night of drinking.





  • There’s a product called Ener-G Egg Replacer and I use it to great success for eggs in dough. It won’t make a dough “eggy” like is needed for challah or egg bagels, but it’ll work as a binder in other baking recipes, as far as I can tell, perfectly. I’ve never had anyone ask “did you do something different here?” when tasting my baked goods, even if they’ve had my egged versions previously.

    I used to use it just for making food for my vegan pals but now I’ve just been using it whenever eggs are called for.
