Pizza

[UnderOpenSky]

Back to the Iceland pizza. My phone ran out of battery and I got busy so no pics

I went into the purchase as a doubting Thomas. The claim 'better than takeaway' is still false advertising but I have to admit the pizza is not half bad. The sort of 'takeaway' you would get from a second rate franchise and not complain.

It was a little heavy on dough and light on cheese but actually not bad. The 'pan style base' was not greasy but not the usual dry crap you get from frozen.

For £2 it is a bloody good pizza. For £4 it would be acceptable. Any more than that I would feel a bit ripped off. Probably not enough to go back and demand a refund though.

The warm dipping sauce actually was pretty good. I do like a bit of sauce (Encona or such) for the drier crust area but never considered a warm sauce. I will in the future though.

While this pizza is £2 I recommend giving it a go. It won't change your life but it was perfectly good pizza. Given the vendor and my general experience of frozen pizza I thought it was good.

I bought pizza's from iceland yesterday and missed them.

i definitely need to make pizza soon (for the first time). Any foolproof recipes for the base, welcome X

I use that just replacing the milk with more water.

many thanks

many thanks

But I recommend that you use twice as much dough for each pizza as the crust can be too thin to keep itself together.

Chigago Town £2 off voucher here - http://www.chicagotown.com/specialops

Tesco are doing the Chicago Town Takeaway Chicken & Bacon Melt half price down so these are £1.99 or £2.00 each at the moment. Not certain it will work but there is hope...

I heard that Pizza Hut's next big thing will be a pizza with an entire roast dinner, including gravy, baked into the crust.

i dunno if i already posted this on this thread somewhere but: in Mexico whenever people get pizza they will always put salsas on it, hot sauce like tabasco of course, but also "salsa inglesa" (english sauce)... and do you know what salsa inglesa is? It is worcester sauce. they can't get enough of it on pizzas over there

heinz worcestershire sauce though, i believe - not the proper stuff.

Worcestershire sauce goes with everything.

Back in the game with a 3 day ferment sour dough!

Margherita - real test of a dough

'Turkish' Pizza with spicy lamb sausage, feta + mozzarella, aubergine, olives, sumac, parsley and cacik - was really good combo

Pretty good structure, may try a 5 day ferment next time, should get bigger bubbles and more charring

That looks amazing.

Do you have any instructions for the dough you can post up.

I think if you search the thread for DieselBar's posts it's in here somewhere? It's sourdough so you'd need to get on the starter thing first.

Here, saved you looking:
