A lot of people seem to think I'm the kind of chef who uses loads and loads of ingredients, combining and layering without thinking twice. We were having a discussion about what to cook for dinner this evening. It's ['donderdag veggiedag'](http://www.evavzw.be/donderdag-veggiedag), an initiative from the Belgian EVA VZW to eat a vegetarian meal each thursday, and since I'm a vegetarian, it's generally accepted that I should know a lot of good recipes.

Peter Reinhart's sacret [Quest for the Best pizza](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/68648.American_Pie?ac=1&from_search=true) let him to believe you should use a very limited amount of core ingredients on your pizza, let's say 4. You can include the sauce as one of those ingredients, or not - that's up to you. But don't exceed that number or you risk the chance of tasting "pizza" in general and not "smoked bell pepper" and "mozzarella". I used to throw as much stuff on the pizza base as I could - one wouldn't want to be hungry afterwards, right? The crust couldn't even get baked well because of all the moisture.

I think you can extrapolate any general programming principle to cooking principles if you're a bit creative.
