CIRCULAR!

pizza.
that's all.
what else do you even need?
i mean it.
pizza is F*ing great.
when times are troublesome, pizza soothes.
when events are hectic, pizza calms.
when people let you down, pizza lifts you back up again.
pizza is my friend when i'm friendless,
and it always loves me back just as hard as i love it.
how many people can you say fit that description?
right?
so, pizza is the TRUTH, and truth tellers can never stop.
check the teleport:

ROUND!?!?!
yeah, dudes.
i didn't forget about round pizza.
i've been elbows deep in that siciliano grandma jaun for a bit,
but i'll never abandon the circle.
how could i?
the human experience is composed of echoing emanations ovelapping
in concentric smoke and ghost rings of spirit and memory, neighbors-
that's circles begetting circles, summoning circles from summoning circles,
and spinning right 'round with centrifugal revolutions of radiating roundness.
i'm sayin': round pizza is still expert, and i'm into it.
i decided to go straightforward, at least, for me, and take it easy on the toppings.
easy, but not lame, because i'm not about to be a lil baby bihhh,
and just have a plain chee' slice like i'm an amateur.
ha.
crushed tomatoes, baby spinach,
daiya mozzarella chee', minced for a major meltability upgrade,
caramelized sweet onion, baby grape tomatoes,
and fried garlic sprankles because rules is rules
and that's the signature move here at the Folk Life & Liberty Fortress test kitchen.
word.
also, there's a little added exxxtra activation over the surface,
in the form of Garlic Powder Onion Powder and nutritional yeast.
what? yes.
GPOP and nootch to take it to eleven-eleven like armistice day.
the dough?
tight and TILTY- quick-fast and in-a-hurry, i whipped up a small batch of from-scratch
turbo-elite high-risin' high-gluten goodness.
mmhmmm.
here's the single small pizza recipe:
-
*
DOUGHBOI!
-
bloom 1 tsp bread machine yeast in 2/3 cup warm water w/ 1 T agave,
let activate for ten minutes.
-
in your stand-up comedian *ahem* mixer,
with the dough hook attached,
combine:
3/4 cup bread flour;
3/4 cup a.p. flour;
1 tsp salt;
1 pkg fast-action yeast;
4 T olive oil.
add the wet to the dry, and knead on medium-low for ten minutes.
let it rise while your oven is preheating to 480℉,
and stretch it out nicey-nice when you're ready to assemble.
how long do you bake one of these for?
well, i don't know.
probably until it looks done, obvi.
the bottom needs to be brown. that's important.
if you've got a baking stone, i hope it just permanently lives in your oven,
because wtf else is it's purpose?
right on.
-
pizza is my number one comfort food.
no joke.
no question.
no doubt about it.
i'll pick pizza over everything.
the round one is dope.
the square one is dope.
the deep dish?
ehhhh.
SIKE.
it's dope!
pizza is what i need when what i want out of life is a little lacking.
and it always delivers, even though i don't eff with delivery.
that's real.
