While we're on the subject of pizza

I hadn't made homemade pizza in a while. One edge got a little too done, but overall it was pretty good.

Premade dough from the supermarket, second proof for about 4 hours. Minimalist sauce: San Marzano tomatoes, EVOO, oregano, garlic, a little hot sauce. Three cheese blend, pepperoni, shrooms, fresh basil from my garden. A few minutes on the pizza steel and Bob's your uncle.

    Finally, some good fucking food. People post the worst looking shit here, but it seems like it's a photography problem more than anything.

    Had to look up EVOO since I never heard that abbreviation and the results were all for a fast casual restaurant. "Y'all put a whole restaurant on this pizza? :O"

    Then I saw the shopping links for Extra Virgin Olive Oil and put 2 and 2 together. 🤣

    I'm gonna make one tomorrow I've been toying with the idea of... maybe you all can give me some feedback.

    For the sauce, instead of a traditional pizza sauce I want to use a thin spread of muhammara. Then, I want to put peppers, mushrooms, and onions, along with a healthy dose of feta cheese.

    Interested in feed back if anyone has any!

    That looks like a tasty idea; my only add (and you might already be doing this) is to pre-cook your mushrooms, just to get them dried out. I do this with both fresh and canned mushrooms if they are going on a pizza.

    Pizza steel, awesome.

    Fresh oregano, check. Also maybe try rocket / arugala sometime. It pairs especially well with certain cheeses, like goat.

    I love pepperoni and mushrooms, but not so sure about both of them together. But I’d put mushroom with bacon, so how was it?
