    But it lacks the classic ingredients to technically be considered a pizza.

    What are the required ingredients? Can they be sure the ingredients are not hidden underneath the ones on top?

        I get pizza without tomatoes all the time. Chicken bacon ranch pizza contains zero tomatoes. I need to talk to this uninformed pizza gatekeeper.

          This brings up a good point. BBQ chicken pizza, donair pizza, and pesto pizza all don’t have tomatoes.

      Required? I’d go with water, flour, yeast, salt, olive oil.

      After that it becomes difficult as a pizza bianca with nothing else but olive oil would be strange, you generally get at least garlic and some cheese, but that’s the minimal set of ingredients shared by every pizza.

      OTOH, cheese might actually be a requirement, can’t think of a cheese-free pizza right now. Oh this is going to piss of the vegans.

      Things may or may not get more complicated, depending on what you consider Pizza, if you include Flammkuchen which doesn’t require yeast or olive oil, and also comes cheese-free by default, instead using some sort of sour cream (and onions and ham). If you ever manage to get your hand on Federweißer, that is a killer combination.

      may have been eaten with fruits such as pomegranates or dates, or dressed with spices and a type of pesto sauce

      I don’t know which ingredients are required but I don’t think they had tomatoes at that time. Wasn’t they discovered in the new world?
