Pizza

[Badgers]

Yesterday I purchased my first ever Dr. Oetker pizza.
Went for the Pizza Ristorante Speciale which I plan to eat this evening.

Dr. Oetker has been delayed until this evening.

I'd get something nice for afters, to make up for it.

You not a fan of the Dr?
Gonna have it with salad I think.

They take ages longer to cook than it says on the instructions. Once you've eaten one half raw in the middle it's hard to want another.

I always think there's something sinister about "doctor" pizzas.

Oetker, oetker, can't you feel I'm burning burning.

(This is so contrived - what with the doctor reference via a lost decade and a lost band - I really ought to go to bed. Or get up.)

I had a feeling from your laissez-faire posting style you may have been jolly last night sir

Erm.

As a vegetarian who likes to holiday in Germany, I've paid my dues to the good Dr over the years, and if I never see one again, it'll be too soon.

Not had pizza for a while now. I think a turkey and ham homemade might be done later.

Got lazy and went for the Dr. Oetker frozen pizza and must say I am impressed. If not the best frozen pizza I have had it is right up there.

i agree, they're pretty decent imo

This one was (reduced I think) £1. 99 and reckon one would just about do me for dinner

what flavour was it? as someone's mentioned already, the mushroom ones are exceedingly good.

That used to be my favourite frozen pizza. Norwegians are the ultimate frozen pizza connoiseurs, so I should know.

What makes your lot stand out?

We consume more of the stuff per capita than any other country apparently. I am aware this could also make us the least culinarily inclined nation on the planet.

We had pizza in Oslo at Peppes with 2 beers... came to around £40!!!! Still, we had the remainders on the train next morn & they tasted just fine, unlike other leftover pizzas...

 

[TruXta]

I fucking hope they weren't frozen?! Peppe's is decent if very pricey. There are much better pizza places that are probably cheaper, but you'd have to dig a bit around.

I did not know this stat. It surprises me. So you think I would be welcome among the flock?

Leftover pizza is Darwins own food???

Tbh, we were starving and just gravitated there (1st night and all)... they didn't feel like frozen ones & was the first pizza had in years

Reminds me I've yet to try the reheating tip I talked about recently. You get around to that yet? In the pan etc.

Not tried yet. The opportunity has not arisen. I will feedback though.

Nah, they wouldn't be. It's the oldest pizza chain in Norway, founded by two Americans. So they've got to have been doing something right all these years.

Franco Manca was excellent at lunch. Had chorizo with extra mushrooms

 

[killer b]

just ate this: christmas ham, mushrooms fried in garlic, olives, two cheeses. i've got pizzas nailed now, i think. could do with a really hot oven, but for a standard domestic oven, i reckon it'd be hard to make 'em much better.

 

[Badgers]

That looks and sounds ace kb. My new years resolution is to make my own and try to last the year without a takeaway or delivery. Our oven is not the best but the few first attempts have been good
