I think it's actually the anchovies. Instead of taking the fillets out individually they just dumped the tins upside down and called it a day.

It’a not “anchovies and potatoes”, just a lovely translation. In Sweden ansjovis is the commercial name for canned sprat of some sort. This product, which is nothing like anchovies, along with potatoes and cream and some other stuff, are ingredients for the Christmas dish Janssons frestelse, and I’m pretty sure that’s what those turd looking things are supposed to be.

Definitely does not belong on a pizza though.

This was a real emotional rollercoaster, my interest going uphill when I found out it wasn't anchovies, only to come flying back down again upon finding out canned sprat are just different small fish.

Sprats aren't even necessarily different fish, it's ended up being a culinary term for that size, whatever the genus

This was news to me, as a Finn. I always assumed our anjovis was the same as the anchovy, but apparently you're right and it's a completely different family of fish.

Jansson's temptation is still loving vile, but apparently it could be even worse?

I got anchovies on a pizza one time. And sorta out of a mix of spite and curiousity. My ex was paying and said she didn't care what was on it. Futurama tricked me into thinking anchovies might be a viable food/topping. I had a slice when it was fresh and didn't like it, so I had a second and put some hotsauce and mustard on to try to bring it around but it was still way fishier than I would want. by the next day the fishiness had congealed into the cheese and even picking them off didn't do anything to help. I still question whether it was the fish being cooked that caused it or if they were like thrown on from some tub that had collected liquified fish juice that wet things before the cheese melted. If anyone has had good anchovies please tell me because I really could do some sardine pizza and am confused why a worse tasting fish would be used.

Anchovies just have an aura that permeates everything. I like their flavor on pizza a little bit, but I won't order them again because they're just too overpowering. I feel like you could just toss a single slice onto the pizza and it would be enough to give the whole thing about the right amount of flavor.

Some anchovy paste in the sauce is good, whole anchovies on the pizza is awful.

Anchovy is good but here's the secret: soak the anchovy in a little water for a few minutes to leech out some salt and then cut them up into smaller pieces

Pizza fries are a fork and knife food, like any loaded fries. And now I want some either pizza fries or poutine or some such concoction

Anchovies are good and any place worth getting them at will RINSE the fish before topping. That is the only secret.

Some cans of anchovies will have actual salt crystals on the fish they're so salty. Rinsing also helps with capers

Wtf; i'd never in a hundred years expect goons to form a rabidly anti anchovy contingent.

Anchovies are the highest tier pizzas topping, and there can't be too many anchovies

I've never had anchovies on a pizza.

But I have had sea food. Tuna too (is not good).


Edit: holy poo poo, I hadn't realized the shrimp is uncooked and it still has the poop line there

I searched for a "marinera" pizza, there's supposed to be shrimp on this:

When you guys are describing anchovies on a pizza, what exactly are you putting on? It sounds like a whole fish rather than a sliver of an anchovy fillet.

I've had anchovies maybe twice or so in my life. The first time I was very young and the only time I heard of them was from the ninja turtles. We were at a decent Italian place and someone ordered a pizza with them. I was scared but tried it and really liked it. But they were the tiny cut up ones on a thin crust tavern style (square cut) pizza so it was a nice small dose at a time.

I made a HUGE mistake of ordering a deep dish pizza from a local place a few years ago with anchovies. I don't know what I was thinking because that doesn't sound like it'd work anyway. But it was like 2 decades since I had them so I figured, eh gently caress it. I was hoping they'd have some tiny ones cut up and thrown about inside of it. Well the pizza had like eight 6" long anchovies baked right under the top layer of cheese. And they tasted horribly fishy at that. I had to throw the whole thing out. Like a 2-3 loving pound pizza. I was very sad. :(

Everyone here is almost certainly talking about the salt-cured fillets. I've never seen anchovies sold as whole fish. I'm sure you can get them at markets selling fresh fish, but that's not what people typically use on pizza or really anything else.

The one time I ordered it from a chain it was smaller filets. I've seen pizzas with whole ones but I don't know how common that is if you're just ordering from a random restaurant.

That first one sounds like I'd be cool with it. I got mine from a chain place that threw handfuls on and everything tasted fishy as gently caress. I tried every thing I could put on it to keep trying to choke down those slices and it couldn't be covered with any amout of condiment. I think the small dose of them would have been better and from what I've been reading the rinsing them off seems like a necessary thing. Maybe I'll try again at a place with good reviews for pizza the next time I go to the coast.
