Notes on Pizza Toppings

Not a recipe, per se, rather a list of good pizza toppings and experience reports.

Basil: Makes a great topping, but very likely to burn. Place shredded or whole leaves on top of pizza immediately after removing from oven.
Mushrooms: Precook by sauteing on the stove with kosher salt, olive oil and, optionally, rosemary. Sprinkle pizza with with truffle oil for extra mushroom flavor.
Artichokes: Canned artichoke hearts are fine. No precooking necessary.
