Is this a thing in your country? “Bread pizza”

[-]

ione_bear@reddit

We call them oven sandwiches, but yeah, it's a thing and I absolutely love it.

[-]

Hot sandwiches in hungary.
Some make it with butter, I prefer making it with pizza sauce (also there are canned premade spreads for it in shops)
Pizza sauce + onion + salami + pepper + a lot of cheese is the best.

[-]

KaptanArkaKapi1@reddit

sure we do

[-]

umutiam@reddit

Yeah i do it Ramadan pide pizza its amazing.

[-]

Punkmo16@reddit

Processing img 3tlsuli8ex0h1...

made by me. It was pretty good but adding eggs made it more like pide than pizza. I later made one without egg and even more cheese. It was superior.

[-]

umutiam@reddit

Looks great man but i don't cut the pide in half i just spread tomato sauce on it, cheese and whatever i have

[-]

Punkmo16@reddit

Yeah, I had some logistic issues

[-]

rablador@reddit (OP)

I love the pide with the eggs man, that’s the stuff 🤤

[-]

Moldorancea@reddit

Yep, we do it at home as an option not to throw away the bread that is several days old.

[-]

Young_Owl99@reddit

For that we cover them with egg york and fry them. And weirdly call it “ekmek balığı” meaning bread fish.

[-]

fulltime-sagittarius@reddit

Never heard of anyone using flour with that batter. It is generally beaten egg and maybe milk.

[-]

AyiBogan54@reddit

my mom would call them yumurtali ekmek (bread with eggs) but in anglo countries i guesse they just call it french toast.

[-]

fulltime-sagittarius@reddit

That’s true! But also french toast is generally sweet and has cinnamon in the batter, served with jam or syrup. Meanwhile we eat ours more salty and savory like with cheese and olives hehe.

[-]

cameliap@reddit

Same, beaten eggs and maybe milk. Пържени филийки - fried bread slices.

[-]

dwartbg9@reddit

This ain't Turkish or Balkan though. This is called - "French Toast" and exists all around the world

[-]

Professional-Fee-488@reddit

You cover the bread with flour? Isn't that kind of redundant? I mean we do almost the same thing with old bread, but we just dip it in scrambled eggs, the dryer the bread the more it will soak up the eggs making prženice better. I'm curious if adding flour over eggs changes the taste.

[-]

Moldorancea@reddit

After you dip the bread in eggs and it is fried, do you add salt or sugar on top? In Romania, the Transylvanians add salt, while in Moldova (eastern Romania) people use to add sugar to transform it in a type of poor man's sweet.

[-]

Professional-Fee-488@reddit

Some people add jam, but the classic way, and favorite among most Serbs I'd say, is just to eat it with homemade white cheese.

[-]

rablador@reddit (OP)

In hungarian it’s “bundás kenyér”, translated word for word it would mean furry bread (but ofc bundás also means battered, furry is just funnier)

[-]

Lugia_the_guardian@reddit

Its not really athe bread pizza, bread pizza is the parasztlángos in hungary.

[-]

rablador@reddit (OP)

I was replying to the Turkish guy who was talking about egg bread

[-]

Lugia_the_guardian@reddit

sorry, my bad

[-]

rablador@reddit (OP)

Nothing to be sorry about 👍

[-]

Fragrant-Field-2017@reddit

Where in this recipe is the "fish" part??

[-]

Dull_Cucumber_3908@reddit

It's not a thing in Greece. I'm doing it in the US as a comfort food.

[-]

dwartbg9@reddit

Not really a thing in Bulgaria, wasn't even a thing in the poor 90s.
We may have something like this, but it's called a sandwich and it's not with pizza ingredients, let alone tomato paste and whatnot.

We have our own "local" Bulgarian pizza, like I guess all of you guys have too. But as I said, dough has never been so expensive or hard to get, so if somebody wanted a pizza he'd do it with dough, not bread. Here's a homemade pizza like many families do in Bulgaria (pickles aren't that common, just found this photo.) Usually it's with tomato sauce, kashkaval and sausages. Maybe some olives too. Easy to make, and you just put in the oven.
Back in the 90s, when Pizza Hut and whatnot were expensive for most families, this is how they made Pizza at home (or in school canteens etc..)

[-]

rablador@reddit (OP)

Ofc dough is cheaper. This was mostly done to be low effort / not waste bread.

[-]

cameliap@reddit

Same in my family.

I had my own experiments with bread later on. But I didn't think of them as "pizza", they were like, let's have something extremely quick but still warm and tasty to eat, shall we, and I'd use one of those tiny grills everybody had, so 2-4 slices of bread at a time. I have to say, yellow cheese with pickles was my favorite! Yellow cheese with tomato slices a close second. In both cases sprinkled with savory. And of course, put the yellow cheese on top of the other ingredient, just like in your photo! Much better this way.

Federal_Presence_555@reddit

What's that shape lol

[-]

Chance_Parsnip_948@reddit

It’s a handle to hold while you eat the rest of the bread lol jk

[-]

rablador@reddit (OP)

Penizza

[-]

evoscheibe@reddit

There are verisons of it. Most common one is the one made with poğaça or погача. They simply put all the pizza ingredients on the unbaked poğaça and put it in the oven. Its sold in pretty much every breakfast place and its delicious af.

[-]

mutsuz_fuhrer@reddit

not common but I do it sometimes

[-]

Immediate_Engine3066@reddit

Its called Mother pizza ingreadens "stale" bread, ketchup for pizza sauce 😃, ingredients for my mom 😃= finely chopped tomato and green pepper then pickle then olive , sucuk(turkish sausage) , salami , sweet corn top of that string cheese

[-]

Svez1@reddit

No, not really.

[-]

GeoSerb16@reddit

Ja to čestom jedem kao večeru

[-]

Unable-Stay-6478@reddit

Isto

[-]

Unable-Stay-6478@reddit

Yeah, we do exactly the same in Serbia

[-]

National-Frame8712@reddit

We do, usually when household have some amount of stale bread and to repurpose them into more pleasany/edible form.

[-]

Lionheart1224@reddit

When I worked at Jimmy John's, I used to take home day old bread, slap some jarred sauce, pepperoni, and cheese on it, then broil it for a few minutes into the oven. Ta da, cheap pizza bread dinner. So yeah, I dunno how common a thing it is here, but it is a thing.

Those were the days...

[-]

Majorman_86@reddit

That was what my parents used to call: "we have pizza at home".

[-]

rablador@reddit (OP)

Exactly haha

[-]

madeWithAi@reddit

Romanian, this is top tier pizza

[-]

Sea-Temporary-6995@reddit

yeah we do it in Bulgaria as well... but we just call it a sandwich even if the topping is literally identical to pizza lol

[-]

abandonedtulpa@reddit

So... a sandwich?

[-]

Young_Owl99@reddit

No a pizza but instead of dough slice of bread is used.

[-]

abandonedtulpa@reddit

So, an open faced sandwich? Considering that a sandwich can literally have anything in it and the only common ingredient is bread, I fail to see how this isn’t a sandwich.

[-]

Young_Owl99@reddit

I don’t accept “open faced sandwich” as sandwich.

[-]

abandonedtulpa@reddit

Yeah, and I don’t consider anything made without dough to be pizza. Also, that probably explains why Turkey has the highest obesity rate in Europe if you don’t consider anything with less than two slices of bread a sandwich.

[-]

iluvatar_gr@reddit

And the pointless insult of the day award goes to:

[-]

abandonedtulpa@reddit

Insult? Brother, be glad I even said Europe in the first place. Anyone else would've just pointed out the obesity rate. I literally made Turkey part of Europe in my comment, if anything you should be thanking me for fighting the good fight. Smh, Turks are so ungrateful. /s

Either way, is it really an insult if it’s true? And why would you get offended if you’re not obese yourself?

[-]

iluvatar_gr@reddit

And the "pointless combative clarification no one gaf about" award goes to:

[-]

abandonedtulpa@reddit

;(

[-]

NatureRiver@reddit

Bread is made from dough you silly.

[-]

abandonedtulpa@reddit

Bread is made from dough, but it isn’t dough, which is why they’re considered different things and have different words for them. You know what I meant, don’t play smart. If they were the same thing, a pizza made with dough and one made with bread would taste the same, but they don’t.

[-]

NatureRiver@reddit

It’s a different type of dough, but it’s still a dough, and there are more than two, doughnuts would be another one. But your initial statement that you don’t consider anything without dough a pizza is flawed because of it, I was just poking fun but you decided to try and be smart about it.

[-]

OldCamera4837@reddit

[-]

abandonedtulpa@reddit

Literally me

[-]

abandonedtulpa@reddit

I think you’re taking the wording way too literally. Obviously different foods use different types of dough, my point was that pizza has an actual dough base, not sliced bread. Nobody is looking at a doughnut and confusing it for pizza just because both use dough.

[-]

Young_Owl99@reddit

Why the topic came to our obesity rates ? Lol

[-]

abandonedtulpa@reddit

That part was more of a joke than anything. Like, only a fatass would say that a sandwich with less than two slices of bread isn’t actually a sandwich

[-]

rablador@reddit (OP)

This. Maybe a bruschetta but not a sandwich. Or a “bread with [topping]” type beat.

[-]

ChecksOutIndeed@reddit

No, a pizza.

[-]

iluvatar_gr@reddit

It doesnt look like a squished d***ck but yes it is a thing

[-]

cressida0x0@reddit

Isn't that a polish zapiekanka without ketchup?

[-]

Vitanist112@reddit

Yah

[-]

rogomatic@reddit

Potatoes and feta are not "pizza adjacent ingredients", they're a travesty :p

[-]

fulltime-sagittarius@reddit

Absolutely!

[-]

OkoMushrooom@reddit

It’s not a thing but years ago I saw this idea on insta and it became a quick dinner, dip some slices of bread in egg and top with cheese, tomatoes, olives, basil or oregano and its an enjoyable dinner.
