Doctoring Homemade Pizza Crust

Recently we made homemade pizza in culinary skills class, and it was so tasty! I came up with a few techniques on how to achieve the best-tasting crust:
  1. Melt butter and brush it over the dough. Then use a fork to pole holes in it so that the butter can seep down into the dough.
  2. Sprinkle garlic powder (or garlic salt) over the dough.
  3. Sprinkle Italian seasoning over the dough also.
Now you've got what it takes to have some really tasty pizza crust!!

Note: Olive oil works well in place of the butter.

Recipe Collection

Last week, I was hard at work finishing my big recipe collection for culinary skills class. It was a long and hard job, locating all the recipes I needed. There were guidelines which I had to follow, but I had plenty of leeway in the recipes I chose. Bottom line, its finished now. I'm definitely excited to see my grade. I'm also excited to get it back so I can have it around at home!
And you know what that means: more cooking! I literally cannot wait to start cooking the recipes I've never tried before. There were a lot I put in that I must try very soon!
We'll figure out how that goes :)
