Pizza

Does that mean you'll get it at a lower price, or is it only them benefitting?

Larger orders and longer lead times probably means they're getting their costs down, would be nice of them to pass some of that on

I got the cheapest early bird pricing anyways (was the 8th person to order out of the ~2500 they now have) so doubt i'd get any money back but i suppose the cheaper they become to make the less likely the company will run out of money to actually produce them (as happens with some crowdfunded products).

Oooo where from?

the recipes states 28oz can, not two of them, Shirley..?

Ah, well spotted. Since it's in american it didn't even register with me what size can was called for so I assumed it wanted one of the standard 400g gram cans. I used two of those bad boys and indeed 2 x 400g = 28 ounces. But still don't drain them.

ok boss - me and the teenagers love the Chicago deep dish pizza pie :)

we refer to this recipe generally > http://sallysbakingaddiction.com/2014/12/31/how-to-make-chicago-style-deep-dish-pizza/

Doesn't seem to be wildly different although crumbled italian sausage > pepperoni. Sauteed onion, mushroom and various peppers also works well. The one I did you blind bake the crust for a short spell then fill it, she seems to skip that.

They're quite common over here in Sweden so picked it up on our eBay equivalent for £25ish. Happy to source one and post over at cost if you're keen?

Also - pizza turned out great, the lack of edges worked a treat

.

indeed crumbled Italian sausage is better

Kids and I just cranked out half a dozen frying pan pizzas using a cast iron pan. These mofos rock!

Pizza stone can gtfo, I am converted.

There's no going back, it just works.

I've got a copy of the good housekeeping cook book from 1967 that has a great recipe for frying pan pizzas.

I can't abide this pizza snobbery about pizza pies. It's just a different kind of pizza, they all have their place.

Speaking of frying pans, I tried Pizza Pilgrims method last night, with an overnight proved dough. Very good indeed, crisp bottom and chewy inside. Worthy of more experimentation, probably to get the crust thinner.

Fancied a change from Neapolitan-style pizza so whacked out a couple of Sicilian pan pizzas with goat's cheese, garlic mushrooms, artichokes, peppers and pecorino. Really great if you can't be bothered to plan your dough days in advance!

Only one can of San Marzanos left now :(

first go at the pan/grill method

very nice, i'm a convert

Looks good but not enough charred bits?

true, could have done with a little longer under the grill but was very hungry!

Defo needs more charred bits. Ollys looks top spec.
New pizza place on Hackney road, Bufi, best pizza I've had in London maybe, better than anything else in the area for sure. Run by the nicest guy in the world, always end up chatting for ages. He ate when I was eating in there last and a homeless person came in and he chatted with them and then gave his pizza to them. I nearly shed a bloody tear.
I need to get back on home made pizza, about to talk to a pal about doing a pop up too, in Hackney wick. Start of an empire?

Hipster Pizza places and their burger counterparts will die a death soon enough.

Not that I'm endorsing the massive corporate chains, but the time will come when there's too much choice.

At Santa Maria in Chelsea

Dessert looks amazing and tastes better, it's a calzone filled with a chocolate, hazelnut and olive oil spread.
