Pizza Notes
🕑 Added 2019-12-15 20:10:22 +0000 UTC- The cheese I use is the vacuum-sealed log of mozz you find in grocery stores. It's fancy enough to be considered "fresh", but old enough to not be full of lots of water. I shred it into 1-2 cm pieces and I really like the cheese coverage as opposed to even shreds
- This is the longest dinner table conversation we ever shot. We talked for probably an hour and tried our best to eat as much pizza as possible. Remember, this was three pies and a cheese bread. Your boy was feeling sick all night. I went on a 24-hour fast the next day. It was extreme.
- Rao's pizza sauce is bomb. The cheaper stuff is okay, but it gets tacky and thick in the oven. Maybe too much sugar? I used to do it traditionally, with nothing but crushed tomatoes, but I find it too watery. It's less intense flavor, and it makes the pizza harder to work with due to all the moisture. Then again, I'm one of those freaks who loves pizza sauce to an insane degree, so this could all just be an elaborate sauce delivery method to me.
- The dough can be made in batches of 8, which works out really well in my household. We can have one guest over and tear through 4 pies, and the other 4 can be kept frozen. That way, I only need a few hours of foresight to thaw a single ball on demand, instead of going for another big 3-day fermented batch
- Bone marrow pizza should really be more popular. It only makes sense.
- Neapolitan purists will disagree, but oiling the crust is 10X better than not oiling the crust.
- We named our dog Crouton, and then a few months later he became Grandpa
- Honestly Patreon kind of sucks, feature-wise. I tried posting some bonus video content to "Patreon Lens" but I have no idea if anyone saw it and it expires in 24 hours. Also, I'm trying to post unedited clips of our dinner conversation, but the Vimeo integration costs extra. insanity. Anyway, none of this is exciting to read but know I'm fighting the good fight to push good content regularly, and it might just take some wangjangling.
- When the camera cut out, Bree added pineapple to the margherita pie

Went through a big neosoul kick in college coupled with a crippling vinyl addiction. Don't know where my copy of it went but glad to see someone else had one.
Yeah that's the one. I got it as a birthday present a long time ago and I'm surprised by the fact that anyone can recognize it

Very cool! In your dishwashing video, is that his heart shaped pressing of "Just Ain't Gonna Work Out" that is framed above the sink? Thanks for indulging the questions!
I am! Also his old instrumental album doesn't get flagged for copyright so I used it since the beginning

Are you a big Mayer Hawthorne fan?
Ight. SO... First you make bone marrow in the oven since it’s basically a giant broiler anyway. Then you top a pizza with bits of marrow, cook it, and garnish it with what is basically a deconstructed chimichurri: Shallot rings quick pickled in red wine vinegar A mix of chopped cilantro and parsley Real thin slices of Fresno Chile A drizzle of raw olive oil at the end And maybe some maldon too if the marrow wasn’t salty enough to carry the new supporting roles
Tell me more about your Bonemarow Pizza please.
Unpopular opinion, I guess, but pineapple on pizza is da bomb dot com. K bye.
