No, it’s a type of egg. Get with the program.
Look at it this way: the dough is the only part of the pizza that can only be used in pizza. You can use the sauce to make pasta, use the cheese to make grilled cheese sandwiches, and so on. Pizza dough can only be used to make pizza; it is pizza. Plain pizza dough? Pizza. Pizza dough with peanut butter and jelly? PB&J pizza. Pizza dough with a poached egg and hollandaise sauce? Eggs Benedict pizza.
Here in the UK you have to specify the ketchup. In my food cupboard I have tomato ketchup, mushroom ketchup and mustard ketchup (yes, honestly!), so always try to make it clear.
I’ve been playing around with eggplant again (I go eggplant crazy every summer).
I sliced eggplant rounds, dipped them in egg, then panko crumbed them. I baked the rounds in a hot oven, then used them for various things including pizzas.
Onto a round I spread some sauce, then mozzarella, and baked. Pizza without pizza dough. I’ve also made cauliflower crust pizzas.
Those sounds delicious, but I would not call them pizza.
My kitchen, my terms, but you have a point. I also layered the rounds in a casserole dish with cooked ground pork, tomato sauce, and parmigiana, baked, and called it eggplant parmigiana.
I guess for people who don’t wash their kitchens it would be a problem.
The most decisive thing that individuals can make is dinner reservations.
I’ve seen it used to make baozi (Chinese steamed buns).
Eeewww. I “clean as I go” when cooking, and keep our kitchen spotless.
I’m not that diligent, but I clean up after washing a chicken, or do anything with raw meat. I don’t know what people do to contaminate their kitchens with raw chicken. Do they splash water all over the place, onto clean dishes and countertops, then not clean up afterward?
IIRC the concern includes aerosolized micro droplets.
Do you know who else uses random capitalization?
Hehe, f*cking autocorrect.

We were in Rhode Island and ordered a bunch of pizzas, different combos of toppings. I wanted one “plain” as we call it in NJ - that is, no toppings.
It came with no cheese, just crust with sauce.
Those little weasels don’t even know what an island is.
That’s called a Party Pizza here, or sometimes Pizza Strips. They’re often made up ahead of time, generally from a square or rectangular pie, cut into strips around 3"x6", and don’t require refrigeration. You can find them in bakeries and grocery stores.
Usually when you order a ‘plain pizza’ here you’ll be asked if you mean a ‘cheese pizza’. My advice is to get chain brand pizza in Rhode Island unless you already know what you’ll get from a particular pizza joint.

And/or choose the restaurant for dinner tonight. Even though everyone else has said “Oh I don’t care. You choose.”
A local pizza parlor sells a dessert made from small ~3/4” balls of deep fried pizza dough sprinkled with powdered sugar and served with warm raspberry sauce. They are soft and surprisingly delicious.

everyone here is referring to the dough as “crust”, as if it were something disposable
Is that what ‘crust’ means to you?
Because that just seems like a weird thing to say.
