Hi all gone to start making this and reading the intructions :

* Crumble the fresh yeast into the liquid or mix in the dried yeast and sugar. Keep warm until the yeast is working well.

All i Brought was Yeast in a tin Active Yeast as thats all there was. Do i just mix that and the sugar? Also i have Plain White sugar ( Granulated) Or Caster, Which one should i use? Thanks for any help need to know ASAP As i cant move on at the mo.!

In my recipe i use about 20ml of milk and that's warm enough after about 20 secs in the microwave - 3 mins may be slightly too long

theiopener willie daveo etc, Hoping to give one a bash this weekend or next week will post up pics once i make one.

So its
Make the base as in post 1
Add the sause
Chesse
Toppings and cook

What cooking times should i use? 20mins at Gas mark 7 ?30mins at gas mark 5 ?

( PS im going to use, Chicken Breast Lean beef mince Peppers oioins and speices! )

Just eat it when it's ready - check on it regularly but at least 15 mins at 220.

I'd put the toppings on before the cheese but that's just preference. It's nicer with the cheese melted over eveything.

If you think your dough isn't right, just chuck it and start again - my first few worked out perfectly and then i messed up two in a row.

Malika i think thats stuffed pizza, truly fabulous dish i have to say

If youre dieting and cant have carbs as such have you tried soy protein isolate as a flour substitute or some other no carb baking mix, these work quite well IME

Dont tempt me with chocolate and things like that, im dieting also

I'm on pre-contest diet, so super strict at the moment...

Yes, I do use protein isolate in batter, never used it in pizza dough as I think you need a strong flour(00) for the dough to rise...

Thanks Willie.

Just a few Questions im a Newbie to cooking in general, so i want to get the right ingreadents.

sugar - What Type Brown or white normal suger liek in coffee or a cooking sugar? (if there is one!?)
Olive Oil - Any select brand or make?
Warm skimmed milk how do i get the milk warm ?
So buy the Chesse that contains the lowest Fat content right?

Thanks

Once i Followed the instructions in the 1st page that gets me my base right?

Sugar - I use white, the same as would go in a tea
Olive oil - any will do
Milk - put some in a cup and put it in the microwave
Cheese - it's up to you and depends on your goals

For the sauce i use some chopped tomatoes, add some herbs, wine etc, simmer it down then blend it up - or use passata.

Give me a shout if you need to know anything else, i'm no cooking expert but i make a pretty good granary pizza

Theiopener,

did you ever try to spread some cooked beef/turkey mince flavored with any spices you like on the dough, then roll it like a swiss roll, then cut it into thick slices, lay the slices overlapping in a shape of a crown, sprinkle some cheese or even some more spices(poppy seed are good too!), then bake it!

It's different & really nice!

You can do the same with a sweet filling like chocolate, dried fruit/cinnamon, etc...

(I'm dieting!)

Forgot to ask mate, what should i use as a tomato sause? tomato Purae (sorry about spelling)

Passata is the perfect consistency for pizza sauce.
Puree will be a little to thick and sickly.
