IS THIS A PIZZA???

[Rollo Tamasi]

We buy 50 lbs bags of King Arthur organic bread flour.
That's where it all starts.

My, my, here I am on the opposite side of the world from you and my bride made those last week.

She used Del Monte's spaghetti sauce with browned hamburger, onions and 'shrooms, ...not bad, ...actually, ...better than most of the local pizza...

Thanks for the double tortilla tip, ...that will definitely help with the crust problem.

However, they're just a quick stand in, ...in between when we make a Pizza Hut copy cat pizza.

Hi Karl,
Welcome to the forum.
Hey,,,,you could put together whatever ingredients you want to.
BUT
The question is: IS THIS A PIZZA?!

What say you?

 

[JohnDB]

How about white pizza?

Does pizza have to use Mozzarella?

When does pizza become "flat bread"?

Do you have to have bread for it to be pizza?


I've loved pizza at my first bite....but I love all sorts of bread and cheese to begin with.

After that it's just a bit of toppings. Great way to use leftovers.

 

[GodsGrace]

How about white pizza?

It's good.
French pizza.
You know it?

Does pizza have to use Mozzarella?

No.

When does pizza become "flat bread"?

When there's nothing on it.
Here it would be called schiacciata. skiacheeata.

Do you have to have bread for it to be pizza?

YES!

Just remember, pizza is a pie.
A pizza pie.
It's origins are Italian.
Since then, many different pies have been created, some of them people call pizza.
Whatever you like, I say.

 

[Karl]

wondering

Is it pizza?

I would say it is, ...just not what we are familiar with or are accustomed to eating.

And yes all of the pizza here is French, ...they have some with the crust so hard we had to literally break it with our knives, ...needless to say we didn't eat very much.

The pizza there is French?
Are you a neighbor of mine?

Italian crust up here by us is also too hard.
Let me see if I could find an image....
Americans have never seen this....


Can't find anything representative. this is the best I could do.
Notice that there hardly IS ANY crust at all.
I know you just met me....but you'll just have to trust me.

What do you mean "whatever you like"?
It's called pizza for a reason...you know?

It needs a crust
MAYBE it needs sauce.
MAYBE cheese.

For instance:
French pizza does not have sauce
and it does not have cheese, except for some Parmigiano.

Words change
gay means sodomite
it use to mean happy
now pizza means pineapples and whatever...

Yes I can find that Greek food has things like that and also odd places here

Yes sir.
This is correct.
But putting pineapple on pizza, or french fries, does not mean it's right.
Just like gay meaning something else is not right.
Gay should mean happy.
I don't even remember how to use the word anymore...
it sounds dumb.

Plus, I don't live there and really don't know what's going on.
I should be quiet and not speak.

Looks good,

We made them again tonight and used the double tortilla with the cheese as glue, ...much better.

My wife "only" eats pizza with pineapple and ham as the toppings, ...it's called a Hawaiian, ...however, ...the Hawaiians never prepare there pizza with pineapple. LOL

No, ...I'm not your neighbor, like I said, I'm on the opposite side of the world from you, ...there is 12 hours time difference between you and me,

...I'm that guy "stranded" on an island in the middle of the South Pacific.

If you can get pizza...
you're not stranded!
Tom Hanks was stranded....!!
LOL

So,,, maybe N.Z.?

Maybe Eastern Australia?
We have members here from both places.
The Aussie is from Brisbane.

Actually, I wouldn't mind being stranded on a nice island right now....
Just for a few days....

Yeah, Hanks was close by!

...and like him, ...I was "isolated" for 10 years!

Remember the plastic side from the chemical toilet that floated up on the beach, ...for me that was the most painful part of the movie, it was made in Bakersfield, CA, ...that's where I was born and lived for 31 years.

A few days........ LOL

How about 29 years, ...the Lord has sent me to Tahiti...

I think I read, please sis, ...correct me if I'm wrong, ...your in Italy?

If so, ...any where close to Milan?

If you teach me how to add photos I'll post one of the pizza we make here, ...if you're interested.

Lord bless

 

[Karl]

Tazmania?

I hesitate to say where, ...because everyone thinks how fortunate I am, ...they think I live in Paradise, ...when actually it's one of "the" most darkest places on the planet,

...Tahiti brother.

Lord bless

That plastic part just reminded me how far he was from civilization.
When he lost Winston it was sad...."no one" left.
So much we take for granted.
Things happen that take us away from what we thought our life would be like.
You can't go home.
And more.

I live in the northern middle of Italy....the region of Tuscany.
Milano is about 3 hours away...a little more.
They've been in a mess with covid. It started there and spread like
wildfire because they didn't know about it and no precautions were taken.

I love pictures and the others will appreciate it too.
