We'd been out most of the day and had just come back from taking the pooch
for a run/play and sharing a bottle of red whilst watching the sunset...... and then visiting a friend on the way back home for a couple more glasses of red.... so dinner was going to be a slap-dash affair. Looked in the fridge, pulled a few ingredients out, some (Musgovian?) Barossa Camembert cheese, pepperoni salami, mushrooms, onions, olives, capsicum........ was just going to do a snack platter but the SO wanted something *hot*....... so I pulled the jalapenos out as well, made some pizza dough and we had pizza and calzones. http://s199.photobucket.com/albums/a...7/Pizza%20and% 20calzones/ http://tinyurl.com/29636g (Haven't figgered out how to have the pics going from 1-20, so they're arse about at the moment.) She got her *hot* pizza both ways........ straight out of the oven and with a tad too many jalepenos on it :-) -- Peter Lucas Brisbane Australia "People sleep safely in their beds because rough men stand ready in the night to do violence to those who would do them harm" -- George Orwell |

Not many people use terracotta tiles for their floors nowadays :-( But the 'areated' pizza pan does a great job of crisping the underside. I used to use a stainless tray before, and always had to take the pizza off about 3/4 of the way through cooking and place it onto the oven racks so that it would brown the bottom and not stay soft. Now I just use my stainless trays for heating nibblies etc. -- Peter Lucas Brisbane Australia "People sleep safely in their beds because rough men stand ready in the night to do violence to those who would do them harm" -- George Orwell |

I had a piece of sheet metal cut to fit the rack to catch the "fallout" cornmeal, but you could use foil or a sideless cookie sheet instead. Seams are not a problem. The dough doesn't go into them and the bottom of the pizza is perfectly smooth when you take it out. No clue about multiple tiles to the pizza eater. -- See return address to reply by email |

Sounds like you have a convection oven... the fancy (expensive) kind that doesn't give you a choice between regular bake and convect. ![]() I looked at those when I needed to replace my old GE oven (that came with the house), but ended up with a Jenn-Aire. I didn't think to measure the interior at the time, but the JA turned out to have a slightly smaller interior even though we had to enlarge the wall opening.... better insulation, I guess. >But then again, the damn stove sucks *and* blows, so it won't be having >a very long life.......
