I made homemade pizza on Sunday, which really means homemade crust with sauce, cheese, and toppings I bought. It isn't worthy enough of its own #breadwatch post, but I have two more yeast packets I'll need to use up. I'll either try pizza again or maybe something else? I'm open to suggestions. I'm working tomorrow and next Monday, then I'm off from 12/15 through 1/3. It's probably the longest continuous stretch of time off from work since I started. I wish I was traveling somewhere, and if it was just me to worry about I might. But I don't want to ask someone to check on my cats during a pandemic. I don't want to ask them to increase their risk, and I realize it increases my risk, too. I'm going to try to cover more of the Ice Age Trail, probably trail running some but maybe hiking, too. The closest segments I haven't done are at least 90 minutes away, so I can't do that every day because the driving would be super annoying. I'll try to finish a couple books I have around. I'm halfway through Cloud Atlas, and I know I have White Fang here. I have a broken tube amp that's been partially repaired for years. This might be enough time to finally try to see if my fix worked. I'm open to suggestions for hobbies to try.
If you have a cast iron pan, I’ve been greatly enjoying America’s Test Kitchen’s cast iron pizza recipe throughout the pandemic. Comes out great every time.
I don't have a cast iron pan, but that recipe looks great. My dough came out too sticky, so I may follow their recipe and just cook it in the oven on a pan like I did.
Fave pizza recipe right here. Whole pizza from scratch to stomach in under an hour. You follow any recipe yourself or go on the fly? Oooh, and what did you use for sauce? I’ve never once had a good experience with tomato sauce, no matter how thick or thin the spread. Tell you what, though: try pesto base. suuuuper thin and the cheese sticks well enough to the crust when done.
I did follow a recipe. I'd have to dig it up, but it was basically water/sugar/yeast, let it proof, then add it to flour and oil. I added a bit more flour because mine was really sticky, but it was still pretty sticky. Then let rise for 1.5 hours. The sauce was just marinara sauce from a jar. The recipe I followed suggested it instead of pizza specific sauce. I think it turned out ok. My sauce thickness was a little variable, but everything held together well. I'll try your link. Not needing to wait for it to rise is a big plus.
