One of my ultimate comfort food has got to be pizza. The truth is, I haven’t met anyone who doesn’t love pizza. And what I enjoy most about it, especially with a brother who prepares a kick-ass thin-crust pizza (recipe here soon!), is you can be all sorts of creative with what you put on top. So when Yellow Cab Pizza delivered a big box of their new creation – Mrs. Hudson’s Pizza – I couldn’t wait to take my first big bite. π
Mrs. Hudson’s Pizza is Yellow Cab’s first ever sauce-less pizza. YES, you read that right Γ’β¬β sauce-less. It doesn’t have the usual pizza sauce we all love, but all the premium ingredients it’s topped with totally makes up for it.
Yellow Cab Pizza is proud to announce this limited-edition pizza that is Italian-inspired, with toppings of prosciutto or Parma ham, which are thinly sliced dry-cured uncooked ham. The name Mrs. Hudson is not of any Italian influence, but itΓ’β¬β’s with reference to the historic Hudson River in New York City and Sherlock Holmes‘ landlady Mrs. Hudson. So, it’s a mashup of Italy and New York. π
Aside from prosciutto, this pizza is also topped with creamy, herbed boursin cheese, caramelized onions, tomatoes, tarragon and other cheeses, which all come together to give you that salty-sweet flavor.
Upon my first bite, I wasn’t surprised to taste the sweetness of the pizza after I read the description that it had caramelized onions on top. It wasn’t anything overwhelming as I enjoyed the combination of all the ingredients. I’m sure many of you, my fellow Filipinos, would be pleased by this. π
Since it’s described as sauce-less, first thing you’d think is it’ll be dry and not as flavorful. Well, even after hours of refrigeration and then heating it up in the oven, the crust and the toppings were still as tasty.
The whole box didn’t even last for two days here. π Okay, Ken wasn’t a big fan of the sweetness, but he still liked the new flavors Yellow Cab has came up with. I’m still more of a savory, meaty pizza lover. However, there’s no denying this pizza will appeal to the Pinoy palate. Which is why the whole family enjoyed every bit of this pizza. We’re sure this will be a big hit with kids too. π
As I said earlier, Yellow Cab’s Mrs. Hudson’s Pizza is a limited offering. You can have a taste only until June 30, 2013, so hurry! π
