White Pizza with Spinach and Garlic
| March 16, 2011 | Posted by Cheeks under Breadmaking, Junk food, Main Course, Vegetarian |
Oh, old friend, how I’ve missed you so. First “discovered” during a dinner at Piece, our favorite brewery and pizzaria in this fair city, the amazing combination of garlic oil, spinach and sauteed mushrooms on crisp, airy dough has become a mythological goddess to us, guiding me through the hallowed woods of pizza making and,…
Sicilian Pizza, AKA the BEST Pizza Ever

I’ve never heard of Sicilian Pizza. Being from MI and now living in Chicago, I’m thoroghly aware that regional pizza styles even between these two close localities vary wildly. Growing up, pizza was a round, thin, soft-in-the-middle, crisp-and-chewy-on-the-edges, cut-into-eight-triangles circle of dough, then sauce, then cheese, then toppings.

Isn’t she pretty? God, there is just something about pizza. Call it a flatbread, call it a pie, call it deep-dish, call it cracker-crust, call it ‘za (or please don’t because that’s just really lame)—it’s so alluring. I don’t know that it’s possible for me to dislike pizza, any pizza, even really bad pizza. It’s…
Pizza….my obsession
| June 14, 2010 | Posted by Cheeks under Breadmaking, Freezer food, Main Course, Make-ahead |
I am on a quest to find the best pizza dough. Which coincides with my quest to learn how to actually bake, knead, etc bread. Hopefully my efforts to learn how to properly do the latter will lead me down a road to the former. Or something like that…. My current favorite doughs come in…
