Pizza

You do realise that Pizzas break the 3 rules of food don't you?
Never eat anything bigger than your head
Never eat anything with tomatoes in it
Never eat anything that looks like it's been eaten before
Just saying....Chunky Cyclists need your love too! :-)

Can you believe that show ran for 4 seasons without the guy having a coronary?! Whilst most of the food looks undoubtedly tasty, any appreciation is lost in the size of the dishes, and the amount of cheese/chilli sauce/saturated fat they try to drown it in!Rick Chasey wrote:Man vs. Food.0 -

Apparently (my GF is a big big fan...) he doesn't eat for the whole day before, he spends a lot of time in the gym, and eats sushi the rest of the time.
Every time the cheese comes out is a laugh-out-loud moment - especially since what's presented is nothing like the name they give it - cheddar, feta, 'blue' (with the exception of 'liquid').0 -
Mine:
Thin base
a good tomato sauce
lots of cheese - either mozarella or cheddar, and maybe a sprinkling of parmesan
allowable veg: onions, olives, mushroom, peppers (only a little of each)
pineapple can p1ss off
lots of meat: chorizo over peperroni, anchovies sometimes, no animals that live in the water (squid gets chewy, mussels go dry, and fish does not work), slices of meatballs is yumm,
bit more cheese on top
ive been meaning to try mozarella directly on the base before the tomato sauce...sounds amazing!
re: man vs food - it is scary, the amount of meat in particular he eats...but also the cheese is a tragedy! they need to come to europe!!!!0 -

You need to watch Man vs. Food.
I watch it, but I consider American food the equivalent of Iceland ownbranded treats...
Pizza, burger, kebabs, hot dogs. They're tricky thing. You don't want to go too 'Europe' with pears and blue cheese, it's not necessary. At the same time you don't want to go chavtastic or American because then you're eating grease.Food Chain number = 4

Almost identical to the classic I grew up making whenever we could. Addition of oregano however and the base was more of a slow cooked onion and chopped tomatoes that had been drained.Le Cannon [98 Cannondale M400] [FCN: 8]

Onion on a pizza? No.
The tomato provides enough sweet stuff. Don't need any more.
I can't believe no-one's mentioned how good tabasco is as an accompaniment.0 -
I like to dunk the crust in a nice smokey BBQ sauce.
Onions are no good on a Pizza.
What about Spinich or Rocket? acceptable or not?"If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always got."

Spoken like someone who has neither been to the states or eaten any proper food there, but buys into the assumption that all American restaurants work to the "quantity over quality" stereotype.
You also appear to think a decent burger comes in a wholemeal bun.
You, sir, are wrong on counts (not to mention blinkered).0 -
Always best when homemade.
So, base made with "00" flour and rolled super thin.
Sauce: well seasoned and reduced passata w/garlic.
Topping: buffalo mozzarella, really good salami and a scattering of those little hot, sweet peppers.
Cooked quickly on highest temp poss.
And nothing else.

If you had a wood fired oven in the garden, then I would invite myself over. In general, I agree though.What do you mean you think 64cm is a big frame?0 -

When I was a teenager I was making ice-cream with my mate (sounds perfectly fine...) and while our backs were turned, his brother put some after-death chili sauce in it before we froze it.
Suffice to say, we were both crying after we had bite.0 -
Heehee!
The WORST pain I have ever been in was when someone put some of those dried chilli flakes into a rollup cigarette as a joke when I was at university. Absolute agony and the seeming inability to breathe for five minutes. Wore off very quickly though with no ill effects afterwards - could be the perfect nonlethal weapon? Throw loads of chili spiked fags at rioters, let them spark up the free snout and then shovel them up as they lie writhing on the ground? Far easier to deploy than water cannon.....FCN 5 belt driven fixie for city bits

Err, pepper spray?

Yerrrrss, but a) I was joking and b) look at the sheer wastage of capiscum that helmeted dingleberry is making. The overspray from that one squirt alone is enough for fifty good bowls of chili! My solution is perfectly targeted with little or no wastage.
You could even back it up with laxative spiked cans of Carling for the non-smoking rioters (although you would have to hose out the paddy wagons fairly thoroughly...)FCN 5 belt driven fixie for city bits
