The Official Chat Thread - Part 3

I love making homemade pizza, though I confess Ive been using a frozen dough lately, I dont often have the patience to plan ahead. But I always tweak and have some tricks for the dough I use to get it just right.
My homemade doughs are hit or miss sometimes, not sure why, but the two-day wait would probly help alot. I used to try to keep a starter dough, but I have to start a new one, lol. Did you get your recipe off the net? And what do you for toppings?

I made my sauce yesterday but I've never made this kind before so I don't know how it will taste. The recipe for my dough I found on the net and it contains barley malt syrup which gives it a unique flavor. Once I get all this perfected I'll post in the recipes area! The style of pizza is called Quad Cities and you'll find it throughout the Chicagoland area. Chicago isn't just for deep dish and stuffed pizzas! This style of pizza has a layer of very finely crumbled sausage and then the cheese goes on top! So good.

Sounds great and I love deep dish so am hoping the crust can be adapted to that

It does sound good.
Maybe we get pics too? Hmm? Yum.

I think my yeast was no good because the crust is still too dense. But the flavor is awesome! I'll work on getting the recipe out sometime.

Did you try activating it first with sugar?

I make homemade bread using a bread-maker. In times past, I often got a rather dense bread until I started using an activated yeast. Now I add a couple of desert spoons of sugar to water, heat and stir to dissolve, then cool (can't add yeast until room temp). Once I see bubbles, I continue the recipe as outlined. The bread works out fluffier this way.

I used a fast acting yeast and it wasn't good enough. I found some Pizza Yeast that I'll try next time!

I have a bread maker as well but then we eat too much bread when I make it

Bah!

Photobucket now wants $40/month or $400/year just to link photos/videos so that they display on 3rd party websites! What a rip! All the images/gifs/video/sound I had under my account there and linked here are now gone. New array of hosting services that I can link to my name I shall find....

I bought a pair of pedal pushers today and thought to myself, does anyone call them that anymore?

 

[psalms 91]

lol probably not

Would they be bicycles or slaves to push the peddles for you?

:rotfl: My grandma used to call capris that...before the word capris became more known. I'm not sure if there is a difference though?

I think my physical therapist must have been in a bad mood today. He pushed me kinda hard and I'm sore now
