Default Ping: Kent re - pizza peel


What a difference! So glad I was finally able to give one a test run
before buying because I was skeptical that it would be much better
than using my cookie sheet. It's funny that there's a $20 difference
between the long and short handles, but luckily I wanted the short
handle - so yippy for me. I wanted the 18" but it only came with a
long handle, which is a good thing because the 16" fits vertically on
one of the under-counter tray shelves so I don't have to hang it.

Anyway, I made pizza last night and invited my son & family over. GS
was sous chef. We started off with pesto pizza, then had sausage,
peppers and onion (on a red sauce) and finished off with a prosciutto
and egg pizza. Yes, egg! I told my son that if he wanted me to try
it, he had to make it - so he did. It wasn't as bad as I thought it
would be, in fact it tasted like a ham and egg breakfast. Not bad if
you're having people over for brunch, but I wouldn't serve it for
dinner.

I also experimented with using just a touch of olive oil in the dough
this time and it was definitely different. Not sure if I like it or
not though. I have leftover dough, so I can make more pizza this
weekend and decide.

Sorry I don't have a picture to post. My computer did something weird
and swallowed them. I put my single picture of the egg pizza going
into the oven (I forgot to take an "after" shot) onto my desktop and
reduced it in size, so I had two of the same picture. I couldn't find
them on my desktop when I looked at it, but they were there when I
looked at the desktop via My Computer. So, I made a folder for them
on the desktop this morning and placed them in it. The whole darned
folder has disappeared. It's nowhere to be found. Using the search
function, I searched the entire computer and recycle. Very odd... I
hope it doesn't happen again.
