Feb 2024

Over the years I've gotten pretty good at making pizza. After we moved to Hawaii I lost my double ovens and had to improvise. We got a large pizza stone and put it in our gas barbecue outside. It gets hot and works like a charm.
I bought large perforated stainless steel pizza pans and build our pizzas on those.
Unbleached flour, tomato sauce with some burgundy and fresh herbs and garlic. Some chili peppers and everything else are picked by whoever wants what. 10 min for a 16" pie.
