And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
I once had a pizza in the Pisa piazza while admiring the leaning tower. There is no bad or wrong way to make pizza. There is only better and greater pizza. It is sad that in the wake of Pizzagate, they have sullied the name of the almighty pizza.
Reminds me of how we made pizza at home when I was younger and how my wife makes it every once in a while. The dough is thrown on a rectangular cookie sheet or a flat metal sheet, and then the toppings are thrown on before popping it in the oven. You then serve it on a wooden plank.
Don't forget the anchovies! Geeze! And from the Pizza Palace in Knoxville, Best in the country (at least according to Diners and Dives) and still flinging dough in the air since 1948! Don't think it's possible to fling a square. Bubbarust
In HS I worked at a pizza joint for a summer. They taught me how to roll and toss dough correctly, and the recipe for the dough. We had a brick oven and used classic wooden paddles to put the pies in the oven, move them around, and pull them out. I have an oven stone and a paddle at home and can still mix, roll, and toss a decent crust. I prefer simple: standard herbed red sauce, mozzarella and Romano cheese, pepperoni, onions, bell peppers, and sometimes sausage.
Shaped wrong, cut wrong, and has fungus on it. Strike three, it's outta here.

ReplyDeletePepperoni, shrooms and black olives are wonderful. However, it needs sausage and more pepperoni. YUM!

ReplyDeleteI would not have guessed that a picture of a pizza would have garnered 12 replies...even given the Thursday handicapping system.
ReplyDeletePizza is always a winner! Things are even better if the pizza has Italian sausage and jalapenos on it!
