Pizza night

As most of you know, pizza night is a very special time. At Stone Soup, making pizza starts with getting the fire going a few hours ahead of time, so the oven is hot. Then, when its all ready to go, pizza dough is prepared. We made dough with whole wheat flour, and generally, make everything with whole wheat flour, even cookies.

The hardest part of making pizza is the implement used to  get the pizza in and out of the oven. It has a long handle, made of a stick, and a pizza board on the end. It does not fit in the kitchen very well, and generally, creates the impression that it will knock over all the things in the kitchen made of glass. However, no such thing happened, and it was a great help in getting the pizza in and out of the oven with no injury incurred.

 Here we have wild mushroom pizza ( we canned the mushrooms when they were plentiful) and wild mushroom and onion calzone. Served with beer, and a rainstorm.
