White pizza?

Saw this on TV a few nights ago. Food Channel had a show about about foods from carnivals/amusement parks etc. There was a restaurant at Coney Island that made a white pizza in a coal oven. Some of the ingredients were sliced mozzarella, garlic, basil leaves and olive oil. Did anyone else see it? I cant remember what other items went on this pizza, but I would love to try it!

I used to love a white pizza at a local pizzeria. They put a thin layer of ricotta and topped it w/ mozzarella and garlic and broccoli! Delish!!

My Nana used to always make homemade pizza's. Red for everyone except me. I would always get the write pizza. On the home made dough was olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder then she would cut up tiny pieces of anchoives and push them into the dough. She would also cut up fresh garlic and press that into the dough too.


Those were the days!

Wonder if this would work

A popular white pizza around here is "Garlic Chicken" pizza-instead of red sauce it is spread with garlic butter then topped with different kinds of white cheese, chopped spicy chicken, tomatoes and mushrooms.
