So youā€™d rather comment on my gramma than my pizzaā€¦ffsā€¦:roll_eyes::roll_eyes::roll_eyes::roll_eyes::roll_eyes:

Looks like something Mamod would make. Except of course it would never get hot enough to work.

Too easy :roll_eyes:

Today I drunkenly made the bastard love child of a pizza and Satan himself. Tomato omitted due to wifely dietary considerations and replaced with cream cheese. No mozza in the house so young cantal used. Pizza dough handled by tipping the bowl into a cold tray and smooshing into place. Tasted far nicer than it had any fucking right to.

Just about managed to hold it together although stiff G&T followed by even stiffer rum & coke, then Chateau Neuf de Pape and Proper Job IPA made things challenging.

Fucked now although artichokes were a useful distraction.

Looks very nice, youā€™re making me hungry!

:thinking: That looks amazingly / suspiciously like @Jim 's earlier effort.

Are you sure you werenā€™t at the same do ?

Still no pineapple :unamused:

I admire your artichoke dedication. I promised myself never to go through the faff of prepping artichokes ever again.

Iā€™m sure I missed out on some clever way of doing them, but a combination of bad knives and poor skill was a Basil Fawlty-esque sight to behold.

Iā€™ve never turned an artichoke in my life - even with my occasional penchant for making work for myself in the kitchen, Iā€™d still rather just buy a jar of artichoke hearts.

Think Bobā€™s near miss with a 2-ton angle grinder, but with tiny veg.

Jars or tinned ones are your friend.

I did go through a period of preparing all apples with just a paring knife, including peeling, coring etc. Thereā€™s a fantastic technique for doing the top, bottom and core that involves holding the knife by the blade, which is fun.

I have once, never again, jarred work perfectly well

The guests brought the artichokes along with some nice olives and Toms from a Greek/Italian deli in the town.

The jarred artichokes in oil are great on pizza. The tinned ones in water are awful.

If you have whole artichokes, donā€™t use them for pizza, just eat them with garlic butter
