I pre-cooked and drained some loose sausage... doing that mize-en-platz thing.... which I don't think I spelled right... but its a French term.... therefore beneath my dignity to spell check.....
Aside from the sausage.... there were sliced mushrooms... basil, oregeno, thyme, multi shredded Italiano cheese....a scanty spray of emergency and not real good pepperoni.... tomato and eggplant sauce I customised into pizza sauce with garlic and sundry herbs...
The traditional, olive oil, olive, garlic, parmasean and anchovie stuff I put on everything...
I don't use a lot of sausage or pepperoni..... I use them mostly as a seasoning rather than an ingredient... I have no idea when my thinking changed in that regard... It still tastes good to me..and I use 3/4 less than I did.... so bonus...
Ha.. Im pretty happy with "just" olives, mushrooms an cheese..and its not a fat-bomb..
I mopped out the pepperoni grease and ate what looked disturbingly like a one eyed smiley face that was in the middle of a stroke... But I wasnt being all that attentive to symmetry.... it was a tough day.. and I was kinda hungry..
The pepperoni goes on top so the grease doesnt soak the base an I can sorta dial it back a bit... maybe I'll just not use it anymore.... or hold out for the high end stuff..this was sort of a dire straights situation....
I made Rayta for dinner yesterday.....
I'd forgotten how much I liked spicy yogurt and cumber .... now the fluffy one wants to make chutneys... which is another big favorite for me... when the temp hits 125+... trust me you need all the appetite stimulants you can get..
Other than that...today suckkkkkked...
I got a call from Bill.... he has some copper chargers I wanted to buy..which make dandy rounds to beat into sauce pans.... or a still...
Its an Irish thing....
i want one pleeeeeassseee
