I can only imagine the reactions I may be getting just by writing that title. My own husband asked me what was for dinner and when I replied with fig, pancetta and gorgonzola cheese pizza there was just silence on the other end of the phone. I had to assure him that I was making a back up pizza just in case this one didn't come out as planned. I told him to just give it the benefit of the doubt.
The good sport that he is, of course tried the pizza and actually enjoyed it. The funny thing about this pizza is he doesn't really like gorgonzola cheese and I'm not a fan of figs. It's a bit of a head scratcher I know, why make a pizza where each of us individually doesn't like a third of the ingredients, a pizza where combined we disliked two thirds of the toppings? Because my friends it's a challenge and in the fashion of Barney Stinson from How I Met Your Mother...I say "Challenge Accepted!"
