Only Nature: foodporn by Kok-Loong Wong
 


Homemade Pizza
This is my first post in 2012! Relocated to Brighton last December, looking to do something different in my life! Maybe something food related...(quite obviously)

Bought a lovely cookbook "How To Make Bread" by Emmanuel Hadjiandreou from a local bookshop and now I am testing a few of his bread recipes. It is a very useful recipe book, detailed visual instructions and beautiful pictures by Steve Painter. You can clearly feel his passion of bread making and his willingness to share it with other people. 

The pizza dough takes 24hrs to proof, which is longer than other pizza dough recipes I have tried. So if you are in a rush or very hungry, this is not for you! 

I think, why order pizza from takeaway? Make it at home, it is so much fun and satisfaction! (I understand that you might not have the time or lazy or can't cook...) but really, nothing beats the homemade pizza. It is full of freshness! or you can order from me!

For the topping, I used sausage meat balls, thinly sliced onion, fresh chopped tomatoes, tomato paste with olive oil, mozzarella and some dried Ghormeh Sabzi mixed herbs.

Ps. I think it won't do any justice if I just copied Emmanuel's recipe on here. I would recommend you to get on hold of the book. It will be a good investment!

    About my cooking

    I started cooking when I was about 10 years old. Even now, I vividly remember my grandmother showing me how to dry-fry black beans over the charcoal stove. As I stood beside her watching the beans hitting the wok, their sound changed from a dull rustling to a lively high "tinging" pitch. A light dry smell, like burnt coffee, filled the kitchen.

    My aim is to cook appetising, yet humble, food that satisfies not only our taste buds and our stomachs, but also our eyes and imagination. I hope to use this blog to show how simple, affordable ingredients can be easily transformed into delicious and beautiful dishes for daily meals.
