    Only done frozen since the stay at home order.  Fiending for a hot, fresh pie.
    We’ve ordered twice in the 5 weeks or so since we’ve been staying home (started before the IL mandate). The first one was delivered at our doorstep with zero contact because we tipped and paid in advance. Second one I drove up, popped open my trunk and they placed it in. Zero contact. Then we transfer the pie and throw out the box immediately. Just mentioning in case guy had concerns over the virus and/or close contact.

    Urging the wife to go with pizza tonight. She wants ham leftovers. We have had ham for dinner, breakfast and now lunch (with eggs and then a sandwich for lunch). Ready for pizza. Wish me luck in convincing her.
    No. 

    You get what you get, and you don’t get upset.

    Compromise. Pizza with ham as the topping.

    That looks so good. I bought a pizza stone last year with the intention of making my own pizzas. It's still in the box. But, now may be as good a time as any to give it a try.

    It was really good, tiny bit well done ( the way I like it)

    choose ham over pepperoni, didn’t want to take a Pepcid 

    munching on a zeppoli now

    forgot to post, last week had my sister drop off a Sicilian from Spumoni Gardens in Brooklyn... was a great surprise. They took a 40minute ride to Brooklyn to get out of the house

    Made a stuffed Sicilian the other night.




  • Whoa.
    You should make a cookbook.  Find an angle and a professional camera....your food looks as good as any food I see and far better than most.  (Taste I am guessing is on par but to sell a book it wouldn't need to be 😉)

    Love stuffed veggie slices

    looks incredible
  • The five year old wanted pizza, told me this AM so no time to really proof it but his turned out good and I initially wanted to go Sicilian with mine but when I didn't have enough dough to fit the proper pan I pivoted and tried to copy a Buddy's Detroit pie.
    I didn't get the crust nailed (wanted it crispy on the top half) but the sauce I made & the Cabot seriously sharp & mozzarella was absolutely money as far as taste.
    Will have plenty of leftovers 😋

    I've solved the scissor debate. This woman uses scissors. If you don't have time to watch 35 minutes of the best cooking video ever made, go to minute 32:30. I don't think one can mock anybody who uses a scissor after this.

    I've been using scissors for a while now. So much better.

    On another note, I tried a slice of something folks here on the north shore of Massachusetts call a "beach pizza" this past Friday. Our usual frozen choice (Cape Cod Cafe, more of a south shore bar pizza) was out of stock at the grocery store. The NH Beach Pizza had minimal packaging, similar to Cape Cod Cafe, so I opted for one of those so that it would fit in our freezer.



    I told my buddy, one of the only friends I have in the Bay State and a north shore lifer, and he replied, "Mmmm, tomato cookies!" That's not too far off. The sauce is incredibly sweet, and there's just a sprinkling of cheese and a slice of provolone thrown on top of that. The first bite was initially offputting to this New Yorker, but another bite or two, and I can definitely see the draw to this style of pizza.



    It's not going to replace our usual frozen selections, but I could see myself buying one from time to time. I don't think I'll ever go to the beach pizza hot spots in Salisbury Beach and coastal New Hampshire, so the frozen slices will have to do.

    I still say pizza shears are funny.  Doesn't mean I'm right.  ;)
    Those tomato cookies look good.

    Ordered two pizzas tonight and had them gently cook and I cooked for about ten minutes when I took them out of the Covid boxes and threw away the boxes.
    Also had one in the freezer from Tony's in SF.

    Delicious and covid free!

    Watched the video all of the way through.  That is genius pizza making.
    My Italian grandma uses scissors for almost everything but I never saw her make pizza like this ....but she was a pasta pro.

    ^ Looking good!  "Took them out of the covid boxes."  Ha!  I do the same.  What a crazy world we live in.
  • PoncierPoncier Posts: 16,933
    Yep. Every time we've gotten pizza since mid March (usually every other Sunday), I pick them up, wife has round pizza pans washed and ready, transfers all pizza to those then I take boxes out of the house for disposal, return and wash hands then start to eat.
