Caramelized fennel and onion pizza
Pizza
Italian cuisine
Hello, you ugly pizza you. You delicious, oozing, herbaceous, licorice-scented, rich, salty, creamy, and butt ugly pizza. But seriously, it's not the pizza's fault. Just because its combination of savory ingredients happen to all fall within the same color spectrum is not its fault. This isn't a pizza margherita, with its contrasting bold hues and photogenic display. The golden crust. The golden caramelized onion. The pale yellow fennel. They don't do anything for this pizza's looks. But they do wonderful things for its flavor and aroma. This pizza was inspired by a similar creation we had at one of our favorite local restaurants, City House (if you're ever in Nashville, it is a must try!) Alas, it is no longer on the menu, so I took it upon myself to recreate it at home. And while I still haven't managed to duplicate the almost pastry-like quality of their crust, we still agreed that this pizza is one we'll definitely be making again. Ugly shmugly. Beauty is in the eye of my stomach,
