Pizza Update

Pizza!! Update

So, due to Urban’s impatience, I’m updating the pizza post. I made the pizza’s last night and they turned out pretty well. The dough was much improved but still not exactly where I want it to be. It was nice and thin, had a good flavor, and the right amount of chew, but it not have the crunch or airiness that I was looking for. I’ll ask the crazies on pizzamaking.com where I went wrong. On to the pies…

For both pies I used a raw sauce that I made with a can of 6 in 1 crushed tomatoes, olive oil, salt, pinch of sugar, and oregano. It was good, but not great, still needs some tweaking. For the first time I used Boards Head Whole Milk Mozzarella, which was the only whole milk mozz that I was able to find at Biggs or Kroger. The whole milk ups the grease and ooey gooey factors. The cheese was good, but I think I like the flavor of fresh mozz a little more, I’m thinking half and half next time.

My pizza had Boars Head pep that came as whole a whole stick. It was way better than any pre sliced pep that I’ve ever had, and it was only $2.99. I also had some hot Italian sausage that I browned up a little bit first and some jalepenos. The wife had sausage, roasted red peppers, sliced mushrooms, and pineapple.

All in all the tasted great and I ate way too much, but my crust still needs a little work. Haven't figured out the best way to do pictures yet, I'll post a few in a separate post.
