peanut sauce pizza

That actually sounds good to me.
Surely I'm not alone in this.

I dont know what it is about deep fried sandwiches, but they just dont seem appealing to me. Perhaps an unfried version

On a pizza I've seen them over cooked, which is bad, but undercooked is even worse (too slimy). It was a topping that just didn't compute for me. I'd do lobster before scallops on a pizza

If I was going to do it, id want like a woodfired set up. Id cook the pizza and do the scallops in a pan. Drop them on after the pizza comes out. Point being, there is a way to do it, but most places just toss the pie into a super hot oven without any consideration.

I am very curious about this. Does it also have cheese or is does it use something else to go with the banana flavor? Actually I wonder how a peanut sauce pizza with bacon and banana would taste

It includes the cheese.

Well peanut butter milkshakes/smoothies are common - so the peanut butter and banana combo is not new.

What is deep fried? Is it like toasted? or is the whole thing immersed in fried oil - like deep fried chips?

I believe the French loaf is hollowed out, the ingredients stuff in, and then dropped into a vat of oil. Like a Monte Cristo.

Deep-frying is frying such that the food is covered over the top with oil, and either floats or is supported by something like a basket, so the oil is what's conveying the heat to the food. Pan-frying has oil some way up the sides of the food, but the food is resting on the pan, so there's more of a hard sear happening there.

You can, in principle, deep-fry potato chips in a skillet. Something like a loaf of bread probably needs something more like a commercial deep-fryer.

Yeah I didn't read the entire article. I agree with you - I mean I'm sure it tastes ok, but I'd prefer it on a toasted sandwich.

I've done them more like a grilled cheese (just mashing up the peanut butter and bananas and spreading them on the bread first). Probably a bit healthier than the Elvis method

If someone in the American South doesn't have a deep fryer big enough to hold a turkey, are they really a Southerner?

That and pot fillers.
