Cast iron and pizza. If you don’t have a pizza oven or a stone, this is THE WAY.

I made a pizza using homemade socca flatbread in my enamel cast iron the other day. It was really good. I think I’m gonna try frying the flatbread a bit before baking it, just to crisp up the bottom a bit. The edges were nice and crispy though. I also flavoured the socca batter with lotsa garlic powder and Italian spices.

Tasty weekend project here I come!

I’m normally a flat pizza person, but made this one recently as a switch and it came out well. Not the super soupy sort of pan pizza, it’s more about bread and cheese. https://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/crispy-cheesy-pan-pizza-recipe

For my first ever sourdough bake recently I used the SE recipe with some tweaking per theperfectloaf.com to make (four of) these:

Not quite as much spring as my usual commercial yeast version, but still quite good!
