Homemade pizza... how do you roll?
Tried out Serious Eats' "Foolproof Pan Pizza" this evening... went pseudo-gourmet with this one, got some premium aged mozzarella, real parmigiano reggiano, sun-dried tomatoes, roasted garlic, and thinly slice prosciutto.
Best pizza I've made to date. Out. Standing. So when you do homemade pizza, what do you do? Basic? Go all out? Pre-made crusts? |

Since you asked...
I use a pizza stone that I get really hot in the oven before throwing the pizza on top. That means I have to make the pizza on a separate pan and slide it over to the stone. I put cornmeal on the bottom of the pan so it is easier to slide. On top of that, my dough is really elastic, so it is always trying to contract. Moving the pizza to the stone is always a moment of high drama. I get some weird looking pizzas, but they taste mighty fine. |

Here's a pic of one of mine:
I think that was pumpkin puree, chorizo, goat cheese, fresh shaved parm, jalapenos, and toasted pecans.

Don't throw away that excess sourdough starter when you feed the jar... use it for pizza dough (sourdough pancakes, too). Fluffs up when you par-bake it, so I just toss it directly on a hot pizza stone in the oven. Build it up on parchment paper first for easy transfer to the heated stone.

Nope. It's ****ing awesome. Put a little chipotle and/or cayenne in it.

Sorry, man. That'll probably continue awhile... my new years resolution is to make something at least twice a week that I've never made before. Last night I made Filipino chicken adobo.

And I should add:
I'm not using some shitty canned pumpkin puree. I'm using good, cooking pumpkins/winter squash (like a Blue Hokkaido or a Queensland Blue) that I roast myself. Then I make a puree from them. It's an entirely different beast than the canned crap. I'll use the puree to fill green enchiladas and for a variety of dishes that week after making it on a Sunday.
