The Pizza Topping That You Should Try If You're A Scorpio
Astrology is not for everyone, we get it. Yet, there are countless Americans — the American Federation of Astrologers counts 70 million, according to Scientific American — who still plan their daily activities based on what their zodiac sign says. Looking up your horoscope is a method to find a connection between the humdrum of your day-to-day affairs and the magical nature of astrology, writes astrology enthusiast Nina Kahn for Bustle.
The origin of astrology could be traced back to Babylon; the ancient culture created its own version of horoscopes over 2,000 years ago, reported Live Science. Later — 2100 years ago to be exact — astrology reached Mediterranean lands and gained traction in Egypt.
On the one hand, we have people for whom reading their horoscopes is innocent fun, and on the other hand, there is also possibly a link between people's personality traits and the inclination to be trusting of astrology, per The Conversation. Before we get into pizza toppings a Scorpio would enjoy, let's break down the sign's traits.
What are Scorpios like?
Scorpios are known for their ability to see into your soul, their comfortableness with awkward silence, and their ability to make you question whether or not they're taking something seriously or cracking a joke, according to Co-Star Astrology. Famous Scorpios include Leonardo DiCaprio, Charles Manson, Frank Ocean, and Sylvia Plath.
Often the most misunderstood sign, Scorpios are thought to be a fire sign, mainly because of their passion and power, per Allure. You'd be surprised to learn that Scorpio is a water sign, and much like other water signs — Cancer and Pisces — they're calculating and unpredictable. These traits of a Scorpio fall under the darker side of the zodiac sign.
For a Scorpio, having a pizza is a sensorial experience and they'd probably push away a simple pizza, according to Amerikanki. Their complex and hard-to-read personality are best accompanied by a pizza recipe that has uncommon toppings like "sun-dried tomato, or bacon and eggs, or even avocado" (via Amerikanki). While we might know the perfect pet for a Scorpio, what pizza recipe might they enjoy?
Try this pizza topping if you're a Scorpio
Would you throw caramelized onions, apples, and goat cheese on pizza? Well, if you did, it's probably pretty likely a Scorpio would relish every bite. This recipe for Caramelised Onions, Apples, and Goat Cheese Pizza by Jessica In The Kitchen is a must-try.
You'll need 1 pizza crust, 1 thinly sliced onion, 1 cored and sliced apple, 4 ounces of softened goat cheese, 3 sprigs of thyme, 2 tablespoons of honey, and 4 tablespoons of butter. Then it's time to put your chef hat on and begin cooking.
According to Jessica In The Kitchen, you begin by preheating the oven to 375 degrees. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a pan over medium heat. Throw in the onions and mix well. Make sure they don't burn by mixing every 5 minutes and cook for 15 minutes until they're soft. On the side, in another pan over medium-high heat, heat the remaining butter. Throw in the apple slices and cook for about 10 minutes, then remove from heat. Layer the goat cheese over the pizza crust. Next, the apples go on top, followed by the onions. Bake for 10 minutes, until the goat cheese is slightly melted. Sprinkle thyme on top, followed by a drizzling of honey. You're ready to serve.
