Pizza is food from the Gods in my opinion. It is the perfect mix of all major food groups. I get Grains, Dairy, Veggies and Meat all in one wonderful package.
I have been a fan of pizza my entire life. A great take out pizza is something to cherish, but even more is a great homemade pizza. Luckily, my parents are amazing cooks and growing up I have th fondest memories of my father's "from scratch" pizzas. They were delicious beyond description and now, as I live in Asia, I appreciate them even more.
I have lived in Asia for almost 10 years now. I lived in Korea for more than 5 years and there, pizza is everywhere. Pizza is common, it is cheap and to be honest, doesn't taste very good. Most places that sell pizza basically serve ketchup, a few slices of pepperoni and very little cheese on a slab of cardboard.
In Japan, pizza is really expensive and doesn't taste very good. ALSO, the sizes are really small.
Solution.....make your own from scracth. That's what I do. here is a quick vid of a pizza I made last weekend. An actual recipe/tutorial video will come soon.
Cool to know you are into Pizza too Kevin. In the first week of November I'll be finishing off my outside garden woodfire pizza oven. (been meaning to finish it for 2 years now)and before Xmas I'll be firing it up for all to enjoy. You are on the top of my list of people to invite now!
ReplyDeleteLooks pretty dang good. I'm not sure where in Japan you are, but if you ever swing by Hiroshima, there is an amazing pizza place there. It's expensive, but worth it. I believe the chef studied in Italy.
ReplyDeletePizza is good everywhere, of course if its made good.
