Pizza literally translated means "pie," but today it can refer to any of a wide variety of flat crusts with toppings. The "classic" American
pizza usually is made with a thin, crisp crust or thick breadlike crust topped
with seasoned tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese and ingredients, such as Italian
sausage, pepperoni, onions, mushrooms, green pepper and olives. Other convenient
choices for pizza crusts are bagels, pita bread, English muffins and tortillas.
Today's trendy toppings include goat cheese, duck sausage, artichokes and
sun-dried tomatoes. Dessert pizzas are made with cookie dough crusts and topped
with cream cheese or ice cream and fruit or candy toppings.
