Pizza

[danny la rouge]

Wondering what danny la rouge will make of this. Yesterday we went to Safari's in Haywards Heath. A small independent with a wood fired oven. The staff were great, it had a wood fired pizza oven and sold my favourite wine by the glass, Bolney Bacchus. Top marks.

Profiterole.

Thank you.

My granny used to pronounce broderie anglaise “broggly ose”. I would otherwise not know the correct pronunciation, nor indeed of its existence, probably.

Of course. Neapolitan margarita.

The epitome of healthy eating.

Mediterranean diet, innit? With a dressed potato salad.

Batter is considered a condiment up there, isn't it. And gravy a health drink.

I'm sure it's lovely but my cat has chronic pancreatitis which sometimes makes him nauseous, and I am not sure I could eat what is on the left due to the reminder of when I have to clean up after him.

Sorry for laughing. Pancreatitis is no laughing matter! I’ve had it. It was extremely painful.

But yeah, I have to reassure you chips, cheese and curry sauce is much tastier than it looks…

The batter ensures the pizza is beautifully steamed and not at all greasy.

Sorry, no. I just ate it with gusto.

Sorry, no. I just ate it with gusto.

[Elpenor]

Sorry, no. I just ate it with gusto.

You had one of those posh meals from a kit as well? A veritable feast!

Yes please. I would wolf that down right now

I saw this on FB, claiming to be a pizza. It is flatbread. There is no sauce. It may well be very good in its way, but how can it be said to be pizza?

 

[Elpenor]

Needs sweetcorn and pineapple

And capers.

how can it be said to be pizza?

Pizza and pitta come from the same linguistic and culinary root. So pizza is a form of flatbread.

 

[ouirdeaux]

Queen and quean (prostitute) come from an IE root meaning 'female' -- also seen in gynaecology -- but this doesn't get us very far.
