I really like Thai, drain, blot dry (it’s never actually dry) dust with rice flour, fry, serve with a Tamarind based sauce. Crispy outside, smooth inside, the Tamarind sauce is acidic and sweet, sometimes a little hot.
I tried one of these at a new Korean street food place in town. The jizz is like fucking frosting. Who the hell wants sugar on an egg sandwich? It was disgusting.
Did you part-cook the pizza? I’ve made a few pizzas in my home oven and one thing that really helped was part-cooking the dough without topings for a few minutes, adding the toppings and putting the pizza back on the stone in the oven. It helped a lot with color and making sure the dough was cooked fully. Yours looks great though, I bet it was tasty!
I didn’t have any problems with that this time, but I also don’t think I did the dough right. It didn’t rise as much as I was expecting so it turned out more like a thin crust, which was still really good. But if I get the dough right next time maybe I’ll try parbaking it. Thanks for the idea and comment!
Pizza ovens can get up to 1000F, which is where pizza should be baked. If you’re doing this in your oven, you gotta get that thing up as high as possible. I use a nerdchef cast iron “stone” in my oven, and the thing says to preheat at 500F for 45 minutes. Your dough may have been fine but maybe your stone or oven wasn’t ready to “light a fire under its ass”. Good luck!
Thanks, dipshit! I used to a stone with a layer of parchment paper because I already messed up the other side and didn’t feel like buying a new stone. Kept it nice and tidy. But yeah, I preheated for 45 minutes at 500, too.
It turned out great! Just a packet of yeast, 1.25 cups of flour, .75 cups of water, and some salt. Kneaded for 8 minutes, left to rise for an hour, and that’s it!
The oven was still cooling down when I used the range to cook dinner. I think just the changes in temperature caused it to crack. Of course, it was out of production but there was new old stock glass for like $400. New oven was ~$600 so I just bit the bullet, I hated all the appliances the house came with, anyways.
I’ve made paneer before for Indian dishes but never thought to make mozzarella. I’ll look into it! It seemed like some pretty great mozzarella from what little I know, but I might as well try my hand at making my own.
My last Domino’s order was an hour late, the boxes were soaked through with grease, and the receipt was on top of the cheese of one of the pizzas. Domino’s never even responded to my calls or emails to try to make it better, so they are on a Never Again list. I’ll still be talking about that order when my preserved brain is on its deathbed in 2359.
I’ve had good Domino’s before, though, I think I just live near a shit store. If you live next to a good one then I’ll happily take the compliment!
Several years ago they realized their pizza was garbage, and they flipped and started properly seasoning things. It was pretty good, then they realized that was expensive and started cutting back and it’s returned to its old, bland, ways.
But for a brief, shining moment, Domino’s was eatable.
