Pizza:
For the dough, I’ve found that Peter Reinhart’s delayed-fermentation technique delivers the best taste and consistency. For the toppings, I like to keep it simple: a Margherita Pizza with Tomato and Fresh Basil, a classic Pepperoni Pizza, or a Vegetable medley, consisting of whatever fresh vegetables are in our backyard.
Homemade Ice Cream:
We’ve had a fresh vanilla bean hanging out in our cupboard for a couple months…
For the pizza dough, I used Peter Reinhart’s recipe, which is located in The Breadbaker’s Apprentice, and can also be found here.
This blog is to serve as a database for various recipes I have used in the past, and those I will be using in the future…A food diary of sorts.
Bon Apetit-
