The Home Made Pizza Thread

Potato and brie, cream seasoned with garlic, rosemary and s&p. Crust is nice and thin, crispy. Win!

Lovely, what type of flour did you use? I read interesting information recently about how overworking can damage elements of the dough that contribute to browning. I'm still trying to get my crusts to take that much color. Are you vegetarian btw or just not a big meat eater? I can't remember one of your pies having meat.

Combination of AP, bread and White WW, someday I need to put recipes that work in writing as I go with the flow and results vary, this was nice though.
Definitely an omnivore, love my meat, on pizza a lot of the times I find it will make it greasy. No pepperoni please! Cheap mozzarella will do the same thing.
The potato, cream combo works great as a change up from tomato based pies, may go tomato tomorrow as I still have dough.

Oh, I do work the dough hard, I have a KItchen aid and I let it go for a while. Baked at 550F, I have two stones in the oven and let it peheat for quite a while, when the oven tells you it's up to temp only means the air is, it takes time for the stone and walls to reach temp, thermal mass.

You all inspired me to attempt one myself. Definitely tasty, likely due to me wanting my first attempt to be a success, but nonetheless, yummy.

Looking good!

Looks good my friend. A word of advice that may be useless to you but I'll shoot it out there anyway - I definitely prefer to cook vegetable toppings before they go on, especially things like peppers and mushrooms. The mushrooms let off a ton of water that can sog out your pie, and the peppers are usually still crunchy by the time the rest of the pie is done. Having said that, I wouldn't kick that pizza out of bed

I made 4 dozen pizza rolls for my sisters Christmas party today.

Haven't posted in a while.

Baked 7 pies and a calzone yesterday. Here is a pic of one of the pies.

[cheezydemon3]

You baked 7 pies and 2 calzones, and we get 2 pics of the same pie?

I only uploaded one pic, and it was just 1 calzone. I was too busy eating to snap more pics. The pies went fast.
Next time I'll take better pics.

Here is a pic from some dough that I used too much yeast on and had very little elasticity.



Yum

 

[cheezydemon3]

I was just kidding with you, but if this...is one pic of a calzone, I need my brain checked.

Trying to go whole wheat this year. Wish me luck.

Read some stuff that pretty much said that eating only whole grains when eating pasta or bread, and brown rice whenever eating....well.....rice..goes a long way towards being healthy.

 

[ChefRex]

Two pies tonight, sausage, sun dried toms, home made sauce, well received!

 

[FermentNEthinG]

Looking like homemade pizza's tonight to purge some things in the fridge.

Homemade mozzarella/pepperoni/sausage and bacon on the first.

Homemade mozzarella/sausage/green peppers/onions/mushrooms for the second.

 

[bottlebomber]

^^ those look great. This thread makes me fat. Getting some more bread going for tomorrow, going to go 30% whole wheat.

Just a thought here, but has anyone thought to try a rye crust for pizza?
Regards, GF.

My spent grain flour is from a rye IPA and its awesome.

 

[unionrdr]

We're gunna roast a pork loin later & I'm thinking of spent grain biscuits to go with it.

That's what I was thinking ala Man VS Food episode.

 

[cheezydemon3]

Made a 60% wheat calzone last night. Turned out great, but even after really good rise and kneading, I had to repair it with extra bits of dough. It went over fine, but holes started to appear mostly where bell pepper edges stuck out. It was gobbled up though!

I made it with a dry salami, a peppered salami, onions, bell peppers, whole garlic cloves, fresh diced tomato, mozzerella, picante provolone, and greek seasoning.

Delicious! My GF dipped it in ranch and that was tasty too.
