October 22nd: Three-cheese pizza with sun dried tomatoes

Verdict:
Try Again: three cheese pizza

Friday night pizza! From October 2010's Chatelaine: Three-cheese pizza with sun dried tomatoes. The three cheeses in question were mozzarella, Parmesan and Provolone, which were a tasty combination.

I tried making the Chatelaine pizza dough again, this time subbing in one cup of whole wheat flour in place of the white, and it didn't rise properly. I think I need a lesson on the chemistry behind yeast and how it works. G is trying to convince me just making the pizza from scratch is healthier enough that I don't need to worry about all the white flour in our diet.

I mostly made the pizza recipe as per the original, but I threw some salami on top of mine, and pepperoni on Greg's. Also, upped the cheese. We've agreed the pizza sauce is good, but too thin and chunky. We're thinking, in future, purée it and really boil it down to thicken it up.

The sundried tomatoes were a yummy addition (though they burnt a bit) and it turns out O loves them too.
