Talk About Anything Other Than Curry / Re: Pizza from scratch
« on: September 06, 2013, 07:15 PM »
That looks intersting indeed but I still wouldn't know where to put it, I surely wouldn't want to fire that up in my flat... And if you have the room then why not simply build a proper Wood-fired oven yourself?

3 minutes baking time is also way too much for a Neapolitan-style Pizza that he claims it's capable of making - Neapolitan pizza bakes for 90 seconds or 2 minutes maximum. I can currently make a pizza in my modded G3ferrari Napoli in less than 3 minutes already, although it won't have that wood-fired oven taste. Most of the taste comes from proving the dough for a long time and not the burnt wood, though.

If I had the money that the Uuni costs I would buy an Effeuno P134H instead:

For now, I've ordered some more heating elements for my G3ferrari and will mod it even further. I'll upload a picture of my Pizzas once I'm finished with that and messing about with different types of flour.

If you do come across any videos of the Uuni I'm definitely interested, though.

After putting in the filling, he folds the edges of the Naan up similar to creating a pizza ball which will trap some air inside to create bubbles.
He then slaps the Naan between his hands to 1) get rid of excess flour and 2) pre-stretch it a little.
Finally he makes sure not go over the edge of the Naan when rolling it out in order to leave some air trapped inside, too.

Lets Talk Curry / Re: Mustard oil

On my bottle it says "not for internal consumption". That's why I haven't used it yet. What's up with that?

No, I'll order mine at beginning of September. This one was prepared in a hot pan and then placed under the grill. Total time about 5 minutes.

Today, I tried the "Pizza Pilgrims" method of baking pizza in a frying pan (and then a grill). You can find the method, I used my own dough, though:

This is the resulting Pizza:

And here are some Tocchetti (deep-fried pizza fingers) that I also made:


My daughter loved these ;)

I linked to that PDF somewhere within this thread ;)

I recently did a comparison of Tipo 00 flour and our german Type 405 - the flavour was very much alike but the pizza turned out better with the 405. Who would've thought? I'll do a more elaborate comparison another day with more flour types and hopefully not forget to snap some pictures again.

I've been reading a lot of books about Pizza recently (including an originally Italian book for the Pizza business) and I found it rather odd that almost all of the recipes only have around 60% hydration, especially the original Neapolitan ones. I think I'll actually lower my hydration for the next batch which I'll make next month when I can finally order one of those modded Pizzamakers from Bestron that people on other sites are raving about (for home use).

Pictures of Your Curries / Re: Tikka Korma
« on: July 12, 2013, 11:30 AM »
Goncalo, I think this is just a presentation issue. Many curries look like canned cat food if not presented right. Mine, too. I go to extra lenghts to make the curries look nicer so my wife will eat them ;) For presentation it also helps if you only use a little sauce and maybe put it on the rice and place the meat on there, too. Put a little fresh coriander on top and Bob's your uncle.

On a curry site I would expect people to see the real dish without needing that much dress-up, though.
