Home Made Pizza

Home made pizza dough recipe:

You need bread flour, yeast, eggs (optional), olive oil, water, salt, spices, pizza pan, bowl, cup, spoon, hand towel, mozzarella cheese, vegetables (optional), whatever else you want on your pizza, sugar and or honey.

sauce, crushed tomatoes (optional) (for addition to sauce)

The very first thing you do is take some yeast a few tablespoons full more then you think you need add it to warm water.. not hot water because yeast is alive you can kill it with hot water but warm water activates it. Mix it together gently with a spoon and set aside. Put the yeast in a cup to stir it together of course. I also usually add a bit of sugar to it.

Take the flour about 3 or 4 scoops handful into a big round bowl

Make a little indent in it and start to put in your eggs and spices. Salt + oregano etc but they don't really show up that well you want to put all of your spices on top of the pizza or in the sauce rather then the crust.

Add honey and or sugar to help feed the yeast. It will make your dough grow.

After you do all your dry spices use WARM water and mix it together also add in the cup full of yeast quickly. Mix with hands. Don't over work it, but mix it all together kneading it. Use either more flour if wet. Use more water if too dry. Mix together until it looks and feels like a giant piece of bubblegum.

Coat in olive oil... not too much.

Take a hand towel and put it in warm to hot water. Place the towel over the dough + bowl.

Leave it alone..

wait for at LEAST a half hour but that's only if your rushing. Ideally you need to let it rise at least an hour and a half.

When its done it should have doubled in size.  Preheat the oven to 500 degrees.

Take the dough and make the pizza on a pizza pan, spread out the pizza dough.  Add sauce spices and cheese + whatever your heart desires. I like adding honey to it myself.

Bake for 14-15 minuets.

Enjoy your pizza.



If you make a bit more you can make cheese bread sticks folded over. Also if you want stuffed crust add mozzarella cheese to the crust and fold it over.

Pandor's Peacefully Spicy Noodles

This recipe is vegetarian. This recipe is easily made vegan.

Be creative in what you make this is a flavorful variation of the Shoyu Ramen. Use fresh ingredients that are around you. Listen to your intuition, use your knowledge of what goes together. This recipe is slightly spicy, and very tasty.

Ingredients:

Base (add first):

Water

Soy Sauce

Bullion

Sweet Onions

Ginger

Garlic

Add just before boiling:

Noodles

Carrots (Julienne)

Green Peppers (Julienne)

1 Egg (add last when heated stir well)

Spices:

(Touch of) Wasabi

Sea Salt

Pepper

Chives

Follow the ingredients list. Add in water, and then add enough soy sauce to make it change color. Be careful, and if you are not sure about the soy sauce taste as you add it in. Add bullion you can make this without it but it adds more flavor. Add in onions, garlic, and ginger then turn on the heat on high.

Just before boiling add in noodles, and then the add the julienned carrots and green peppers. Make them long and thin easy to pick up with chopsticks but not too big. You get a nice balance of fresh and cooked when you add it in near the end. When the noodles are soft enough, add in the egg and stir quickly.

Then add the spices and enjoy :)

Tip: Noodles are noodles. You can use linguine noodles, or you can pull ramen noodles out of the package and add the package as a replacement for the bullion.

Vegan Pot Pie

This recipe is medium difficulty. It is complex dish and takes approximately 45 minuets to prepare and 50 minuets to cook.

I used an over-sized muffin pan for my pot pies. Find a pie pan or something that would fit.

With this recipe you need to make it in several parts. First make and allow the dough to rest then, cut and sauté vegetables, then cook the sauce, and then put it all together.

Crust:

Flour
a banana (optional)
healthy amount of vegetable margarine
salt
hot water

Mix the dough but you don't need to over knead this recipe. The vegetable shorting will keep the dough very moist and easy to manage. First add the flour, then the salt and the banana. Then add the vegetable margarine in and mix well. Then add in the hot water. Knead the dough until there is not much loose flour, if it is sticking to your hands you need to add more flour. Dough sounds hard but it is very easy, its all about the balance of the flour and the water. Once it is together cover bowl with a damp towel to retain moisture.

Cut your vegetables:

carrots cut into rounds
minced garlic
minced sweet onions
vegan boca patties (optional)
portabello mushrooms
soy sauce
sage
thyme
parsley
salt
pepper

Chop your ingredients, sauté in vegan butter or olive oil. Adding in the carrots first followed by the garlic and onions, fake meat. Lightly drizzle soy sauce over the chopped mushrooms to give it a boost of flavor and darker color before adding it to the pan. Add in the spices, and then set aside. You can add salt and other spices when you add in some of the first ingredients to the pan.


Cook sauce:

water
crushed garlic
vegetable bullion
salt and pepper
rosemary
thyme
parsley
flour to thicken

Boil water with seasonings and garlic. Whisk the flour together with water in a separate dish to prevent flour lumps. Don't forget to taste and adjust to your liking.

Same concept, but with home made apple jam.

Construct your pot pie:

On a lightly floured surface separate the appropriate amount of balls of dough for your pot pies leaving a fair amount for the pie top. Roll out and place into the designated pre floured pie dishes. You can roll the bottom pie crust over the top and pinch it together for a nice seal. Don't forget to pot air holes on your pot pie with a knife. When you take it out once its golden brown let it cool. Warning the insides will still be steaming hot. Enjoy!
