  • Home Made Pizza That Will Have The Pizzerias Jealous

    Want to skip the lines and find a bonding moment with a loved one? Making homemade pizza is the way to go, and honestly, the best way to go. You can be as heavy-handed with cheese as you like or not so heavy-handed. As for me though, I gotta have that teenage mutant turtle cheese pull.

    Ingredients:

    • 1 cup warm water (105 degrees F)
    • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
    • 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    • 2 to 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour*
    • 1 teaspoon fine sea salt

    Instructions:

    1. Preheat your oven to a blazing 500 degrees F. Place a pizza stone in the oven while it preheats and let it bask in the heat for at least 10 minutes.
    2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, yeast, and sugar, giving it a good stir.
    3. Allow this mixture to sit for 5 minutes, or until it becomes frothy, with delightful bubbles forming.
    4. Gently stir in the olive oil to enrich the dough.
    5. Add 2 cups of flour and the sea salt, and mix it with a spatula until a dough ball starts to take shape (the dough will still be slightly sticky). If needed, add more flour gradually until the dough comes together.
    6. Optionally, if you desire, cover the bowl with a damp tea towel and let the dough rise for 10 minutes or up to 1 hour.
    7. Roll the dough into your preferred shape and place it on a piece of parchment paper.
    8. Add your favorite pizza sauce, Provolone cheese, and the toppings of your choice. Feel free to get creative and add whatever toppings you like, such as leftover roasted vegetables, to make it uniquely yours.
    9. Use a trusty pizza peel to transfer the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone in the oven.
    10. Bake on the preheated pizza stone for 12-15 minutes or until the bottom of the crust is gloriously golden brown.
    11. Once it’s reached perfection, remove the pizza from the oven with the pizza peel and let it rest on a wire rack for 5-10 minutes before indulging in a slice of your homemade masterpiece. Enjoy!

    Once you have created your homemade pizza and munching on it remember all the hard work and bonding experience you had to make this treat. As well as embracing your inner teenage mutant turtle doing that saucy chees pull.

  • Butter Rolls That Will Have You Buttering For More

    Homemade butter rolls to help you get into the mood of embracing that inner baker. With these butter rolls, will want to stop buying the storebought. Making them at home is a game changer for when you need to make mini buns or just a side dish.

    Ingredients:

    • ¾ cup milk
    • ¼ cup butter
    • ¼ cup white sugar
    • 1 teaspoon salt
    • 4 ½ teaspoons active dry yeast
    • 1 teaspoon white sugar
    • ½ cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
    • 3 ½ cups bread flour, divided, or as needed
    • 1 egg, lightly beaten
    • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, or more as needed, for dusting

    Directions:

    1. Start by pouring the milk into a glass 2-cup measuring cup, and heat it in the microwave until it begins to boil and gently climb the sides, which should take around 1 minute.
    2. Add the butter, 1/4 cup sugar, and salt to the scalded milk. Allow this mixture to cool until it reaches below 110 degrees F (45 degrees C).
    3. In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast and 1 teaspoon of sugar in warm water. Let it stand until the yeast softens and starts forming a creamy foam, which usually takes about 10 minutes.
    4. Pour the milk mixture into the yeast mixture, then add 2 cups of bread flour and the egg. Stir the mixture with a wooden spoon until it becomes smooth. Gradually add the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, making sure to mix thoroughly after each addition. You’ll know the dough is ready when it’s smooth and slightly tacky.
    5. Turn the dough out onto a sheet of waxed paper lightly dusted with flour and gently knead it to bring it together. Shape it into a ball.
    6. Place the dough in a large bowl that has been lightly oiled, and turn it to coat. Cover the bowl with a towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for approximately 30 minutes.
    7. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Divide the dough into thirds, and then break each third into six equally sized balls. Arrange these balls on the prepared baking sheet. Cover the balls with a towel to let them rise further for another 30 minutes.
    8. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
    9. Bake in the preheated oven until the rolls have turned a lovely golden brown, which should take about 15 minutes. Enjoy your freshly baked rolls!

The White Cheddar Burger with an Extra Special Sauce is the truth. Before we jump into the meat let’s get into the potatoes. The wedges with the sauce alone is a 10 out of 10.

    1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Cut potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Peel and thinly slice onion.
    2. On a baking sheet, drizzle the wedges with oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper and Old Bay Seasoning. Roast on top rack for 20-25 minutes until brown and crispy
    3. On medium high heat, in a medium sized pan, heat up a large drizzle of oil. Add sliced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and softened for 8-10 minutes. Add 1 tsp sugar and splashes of water until the onions are caramelized for another 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Move to a bowl.
    4. In a separate small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, and Old Bay Seasoning (measure with your heart).
    5. Season ground beef with salt and pepper then form it into two equal-size balls.
    6. In the same pan from before, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high heat. Add the beef and flatten with a spatula (Be Careful: oil may splatter). Cook to desired doneness (anything less than medium well and you’re a heathen), 3-4 minutes per side. During the final 1-2 minutes of cooking, cover patties with cheddar; cover pan to melt cheese. Remove from heat.

    Optional but highly recommended toast your buns. Use some of the special sauce on the buns and save some for the wedges. Boom now you have a White Cheddar Burger with Special Sauce and a side of wedges.
