Some of the World's Most Bizarre Pizza Toppings

Pizza has been around for hundreds of years, if not longer, and through that period of time has changed many different style and tastes. While it started out as a flat bread topped with oil and herbs, it has now originated into a international phenomonon that many love, and even eat on a weekly basis. At Li'l Rizzo's, we offer many specialty pizzas, with toppings that are desigend to go together, but we also offer a customizable option. You can select from the items on our list to create a pizza that is perfect for you. Today we're going to learn about pizza toppings that are popular in many different countries around the world!


England

They take breakfast very seriously in England, and when you go over there, you might just find a breakfast pizza! Topped with tomatoes, potatoes, mushrooms, sausage, bacon, baked beans, cheese, and don't forget an egg sunny-side-up! Such fun way to start the day!

Denmark

While a pizza at a specific restaurant may look normal at first, you'd never guess the type of meat they serve on top! While it may look like slabs of steak on this pizza pie, it's actually horse meat. Not sure if that's going to be tasty or not, but I think we'll stick to our sausage and pepperoni.

Costa Rica

Are you looking for a tropical theme for you pizza? In Cosa Rica coconut is consistently the most preferred topping on their pizza, followed by shrimp. Chicken and coconut would probably make a very delicious pairing, what do you think?

Russia

If you don't have a weak nose or stomach, you could try Russia's pizza toppings. It's called Mockba and is complete with sardines, tuna, mackeral, onion, salmon, and red herring. You probably wouldn't be able to get by without brushing your teeth after this meal!

India

Need a little spice in your life? Try a tandoori chicken or mutton pizza with pickled ginger and paneer (like cottage cheese). Make a pizza crust out of naan, put on your favorite Bollywood movie, and enjoy.

Brazil

While we've never tried putting peas on our pizza, in Brazil it's quite a favorite. If you add carrots, quail eggs, beets and raisins to that thin crust - you'll have a meal fit for a king!

Sweden

Pizza Africana is a popular topping combination in Sweden, and while we would never have thought of it, it could be pretty tasty. Imagine peanuts, bananas, chicken, pineapple and loads of curry powder. This is also known as banana curry pizza.

United States

Well, this may not be a thing in the United States, but it sure is here - gummy bears! On our kid's menu, you'll find a Gummy Bear Pizza. This six-inch cheese pizza comes with a side of gummy bears. Put those gummy bears on top of the pizza and watch them melt across! This could be one of the coolest toppings yet.

The Origins of Appetizers

Image
An appetizer is a small dish of food or a drink taken before a meal or the main course of a meal to stimulate one's appetite. Who decided we needed food before more food? Keep reading to learn about the origins of appetizers! Then take a look at what delicious pre-meal snacks we have to offer here at Li'l Rizzo's . Appetizer History Virtually all cultures have indulged in pre-meal morsels designed to whet the appetite. The ancient Greeks and Romans sampled bits of fish, seasoned vegetables, cheese and olives prior to their meals. Italians often ate thin rolls of grilled veal to stimulate the appetite for the meal to come. Wealthy Frenchmen picked at hors d’oeuvres throughout fancy meals from the late 17th through the mid-19th centuries. These snacks ranged from oysters and stuffed eggs to slices of beef tongue or braised quails. Americans began emulating that french dining model, by placing these bites of food on the table to be served throughout the meal as a pala

Brew, barley soda, liquid bread, and suds. There are so many different terms and phrases for the ice cold beverage we all love. The one that confuses us the most though, is draught and draft...how do we know which one to use, or how to pronounce it? Li'l Rizzo's has the best bar at the Lake of the Ozarks , so we're curious what the difference is between draught and draft. Draught Definition : A serving of drink (usually alcoholic) drawn from a keg. This could potentially save you from a very embarrassing night at the bar! Though it looks like it is pronounced like caught or bought, it's not. It's actually pronounce as "draft" according to Dictionary.com . A draught beer (AKA: spelt draft) is served from a cask or keg instead of a bottle or can. You can get draught beer in a "can form", and it's served in a pressurised container featuring a widget. A widget is a small plastic ball that you'll find in the can of your favorite draug

Pasta comes in many different shapes and sizes. In fact, there are approximately 350 different types of pasta around the world. These noodles can be organized into several different groups including long pasta (spaghetti, fettucine), tubes (penne), stuffed (tortellini, ravioli) and more! The meu at Li'l Rizzo's has a variety of different types of pasta. Why All These Shapes and Sizes?  Chefs use different shapes and sizes of pasta for different purposes because certain shapes hold different sauces better than others. Thin pasta, such as angel hair works better with thin oil-based sauce, while thicker sauces work better with thicker, heavier pastas.
