Best [pizza] Recipes

Everyone has a favorite pizza topping, but great pizza truly comes down to only three things: fresh dough, ripe tomatoes, and a stand-out cheese. For this recipe we are zoning in on the cheese and swapping out the mozzerella standby for decadent burrata. Burrata is a Puglian cheese that is often said to be in the same family as mozzarella — but if that's the case then burrata is the better-looking adopted cousin. It's textural differences and creamy rich interior make it a singular cheese. When added to pizza, its lightness and flavor gives an extra dimension to an already beloved dish.See all recipes with mozzarella.Click here to see Bake Me a Pizza as Fast as You Can.

There's really no such thing as Irish pizza, of course — not in any traditional sense, at least. The historic Kitchen Bar in Belfast does serve what they've dubbed "Paddy Pizza", ham or chicken and sliced tomatoes on a soda bread crust with Irish Cheddar melted on top, however, and in the late 1980s, Bernadette O'Shea introduced Sligo to real Mediterranean-style pizza at her Truffles restaurant, and later developed a pizza topped with black pudding (Irish blood sausage) and leeks. The pizza created by this recipe, which is my invention, might be said to be the illegitimate spawn of those two preparations. For 7 Cheesy Ways to Enjoy Irish Cheddar.
