This reminds me of when I was in school, and went to a friend's house.
I love pizza, I think I always have. My friend, at the time, says that his mum makes great pizza and she can make some for us. "Oh cool, yeah sure I'd love some thanks".
She sliced some cheese. She put the cheese onto a slice of bread. She then microwaved it until the cheese melted. Then she... Squirted ketchup on it. Called this pizza.
It's been over 20 years and I still think about this. Why would he do this.
Why would he do this.
pooooooooooooooooooooooooooor
That's the thing, he very much was not. His family founded and still fully owns a successful private and NHS dentistry in the local area... It boggles the mind.
I guess incompetant chef, and anything made with love and novelty makes kids love it?
or SHE was poor and kept that food habit?
or it's just a quick and easy snack that tastes good that used a linguistic shortcut
Or she just wanted to cause sheer trauma with that excuse of a thing being called pizza.
Could be anything!
Maybe she just hates pizza to a degree that she wanted to insult the very concept of it.
We will never know.
See, this makes me think one of two things: Either she couldn't make anything more complex (or couldn't be bothered to.... Take your pick), or she knew it was "good enough" for her kid, and didn't care to spend any more money on making him a "pizza". Because let's face it, a slice of bread, a slice of cheese and a squirt of ketchup is really inexpensive. The most costly thing there is the slice of cheese.
Rich people can be cheap... In fact, that's usually how they become rich.
My mom has a recipe close to that. But requires a fry pan, another slice of bread. And we add the ketchup to it when it is done. She calls it grilled cheese.
You can't beat some grilled cheese. Many people here in London wouldn't be too keen to hear it, though occasionally I buy processed cheese singles for a grilled cheese (using a frying pan).
Spent a few years in America and food often is a good way to bring back nice memories.
Call it a toastie and you may find a LOT more people are onboard
Butter fried toastie, perhaps?
She then microwaved it until the cheese melted. Then she... Squirted ketchup on it.
Even if you accept this absolutely unhinged behavior, why not squirt the ketchup on before the cheese?
The whole thing feels like a fever dream, even when talking about it.
It could also be the edible, though.
Simple. To be remembered. Seems like she succeeded
It's not shitty,
??? Am i supposed to Cook it or what???? Are you dumb?
Put some water on the crust before baking next time (water on breadstuff before baking makes it way nicer)
You seem to think OP made their own dough lol
No. I do water on any freezed dough stuff like baguette, pizza and more
So... you'd sprinkle water on the bottom here? Would that make a difference? I'm trying to understand the logistics.
Not directly the bottom, the trapped water makes it too "mush". I put it on the sides/top which air can freely interact with. It makes the crust crispier basically but i honestly dont know how, im just happy that it works
And its not nessesary to put the water directly on the dough if you put it in a bowl and put it on the oven floor. But that way some of our bowls got cracks
Reminds me of how I warm up premade naan bread from the supermarket: I quickly run it under tap water (like, a second, maybe two if I'm taking it straight out of the freezer) before placing into a pre-heated oven that I immediately switch to broil. The water gets absorbed, making the inside soft and moist even as the outside crisps up.
Dang, thanks, can I use milk too?
That meat better be SPAM or I'm calling fake.
Is that Catalina sauce?
Probably sriracha.
at least the sauce is on top of the cheese
Also underneath.
No, there's also some below, I just thought it was not enough
Hello officer, yes this post right here
Thank you, edgemaster72.
Yo, you deserve to be quartered for this. Pretty sure this is what Geneva conventions were made to fight against.
