See and ponder what my skills have wrought, I, your blogger, writer of posts gazed upon by hundreds ... have made a pizza.*
Behold, my home-made pizza:
I love pizza, I love cooking, it should not have come a surprise that I love making pizza.
It was my first ever attempt, didn't use a recipe or anything! Simple wheat flour, water and paprika for the dough, baked in a pan with olive oil. I used chopped and canned tomatoes (no fresh ones available) mixed with a little more flour for the tomato base, and added sliced salami and ham for toppings, as well as some basel and vulgar thyme for seazoning.
After baking the bottom, I placed the entire pan under the oven grill to get a crunchy top, came out like this:
Tasted good, I used a little bit too much flour in the tomato bit, guess I'll use less next time, or use sauce binder.
Next up: bullseye pattern pizzas.
On another note, my grasspop ticked came through today, I will NOT be around at the end of next month!
*Yes, this is in fact a parody of Catuls ode to a dead bird which is itself a snear at the ancient Roman poetry to praise the gods.
A classic education, I has it.
