holy mackerel, err, anchovy
I'm a bachelor tonight, the inchling and SWMBO went on a short road trip so I am making pizza to cheer myself up.
550ºf oven and a good sized pizza stone Semolina flour for the dough with olive oil, garlic, celtic sea salt(a gift from my dad, I'd never spring for that) toppings: part skim mozzarella oven carmelized whole garlic cloves (a whole head) capers carmelized onions crushed tomatoes sauce and of course Anochovies. Usually we buy a large jar or tin of anchovies, about a pint at a time. We ran out and haven't replaced the jar yet. In the meantime I bought a couple of small tins at the coop. They were about $3.00 each, pricey, but not a usual practice, so Whatever. They are "packed in sea salt" rather than olive oil, so yeah whatever. I open the tin and see a humongous pile of rock salt and a bit of oily liquid. I dump the rock salt out to reveal the anchovies. I give them a little rinse to get all the extra salt off of them and pull them out of the tin. There were exactly three filets of anchovy. Or one and a half fish. 'WTF? What the fucking fuck?', I am thinking. These had better taste supreme. A dollar an anchovy. Ya know what? They tasted exactly like anchovies. Anyway, the pizza was stellar. I felt to lazy to go get beer so I just drank water. It was supreme water, very moist. There is leftover pizza for breakfast! |
Drool.. I'd hit it.
