What kind of sauce for a Reuben pizza?
I've got corned beef, sauerkraut, and processed swiss cheese slices. I
have rye flour to add to the crust. The swiss cheese slices will probably be shredded and mixed with mozzarella. Do I use a red sauce, or some kind of white sauce? Should I add caraway seeds? Maybe I should use the swiss cheese with some ricotta instead of a sauce and use just mozzarella over the top? What do y'all think? Bob |

It's mayo based. Here's a good version. Just use whatever catsup you like. No need to use the Heinz Chili Sauce stuff.

I think using the rye is a great idea. I would use the kraut in a fashion so it doesn't get burned up. Spray the pizza round with PAM, then apply the Kraut. It might be a good idea to leave the meat under the cheese as well. I like the idea of Swiss cheese. I'd leave out Mozzarella. When I do something like this, I bake on a pizza stone, preheated 45 min. on the hottest setting your oven will go. It should take only 5-6 minutes to bake the pizza. That way the other ingredients won't be burned up and dry. That's just the kind of crazy thing I would try. A sort of "Reuben Pizza". Let us know how it turned out. Kent |

About 30% rye flour and 70% bread flour in the crust, with caraway seeds and olive oil. A little more oil on top of the crust, then sauerkraut with a little ketchup mixed in as a nod to the Russian dressing. Corned beef, some diced tomatoes and red onions (not too much tomatoes or onions), swiss cheese slices, and a little shredded mozzarella to cover. Bob |

I have instant ramen, but I use it with lots of vegetables for making lo mein. I don't think it would work with pizza, but if that's what you like go for it. Best regards, Bob |

What kind of sauce for a Reuben pizza?
A few years back, I found a recipe for a "Muffaletta Calzone" on Emeril's
website...that came out great, although making olive salad took a long time (I hand-minced everything). While I was doing that calzone, I had the makings for Reubens as well, so I winged a Reuben Calzone. That came out great too, although I found that too much Russian dressing was a little too rich for my palate. So...my vote (as others have suggested) is for Russian dressing. But I'd use a thin layer...and, unless you want to use a knife and fork with the pizza, it might be best to shred the corned beef, or cut into bite-sized pieces. |

I used the sauerkraut (lightly seasoned with ketchup and oil) instead of a sauce, then topped with thinly sliced corned beef, then swiss cheese, then mozzarella. It wasn't very good, but it had potential. I think my approach was too literal. Instead of "Reuben Pizza", I should have been thinking "Corned beef and Sauerkraut Pizza" and used a traditional pizza crust and sauce. The swiss cheese was a nice touch. The rye flour and the caraway seeds were not. Best regards, Bob |

I have to say that I don't in the least fancy corned beef pizza, but thne I don't fancy tandoori chicken pizza either and you can buy those. Christine |

Somewhere at home I have a potato starch pizza crust recipe that came from Mary Ann Esposito's Ciao Italia show. The basics call for about a cup of cubed potatoes cooked until falling apart, mashed and used (with the liquid) in the crust recipe. It is really good, if you like the potato starch style (we're not talking thin and crispy). Guy |

Anyone have a good Russian dressing recipe? ******************************************* Here is one from the Joy of Cooking cookbook. 1 cup mayonnaise 1 T horseradish 1/4 c chili sauce or catsup 1 t grated onion (2 T imported caviar) (1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce) I suppose one could use the worcestershire sauce in it, but caviar, Ugh! Mix well. I've never seen the sauce served with the sandwich that had caviar in it. Jeanette |
