Probably my single favorite protein. :) My usual pairings are steamed jumbo artichokes and sourdough bread.
As much as I love king crab, I have feeling if it was 2.99/lb, it would become so-so after a while.

Didn't see this earlier. Yes, I made the dough. It's a NYT recipe.

Dinner out:
Tuna poke bowl with one tempura shrimp, seaweed salad and sunomono

I am trying this tomorrow. You did yours on the grill though, right? How long did it take and dod you put the pan directly on the grate?

You have to post photos...it sounds similar to Chicago or Detroit. I am not sure i could remove it from the cast iron skillet though ....sounds tricky.

I've done it in the oven and on the grill several times. But, it is sooo good, we've been having it once a week and since you bake at 450°, that can heat up the kitchen pretty fast in the summertime. I'm not familiar with Detroit pizza, but the comments on the site suggest that's what it is. It's very doughy but really crisp on the bottom and edges.

I have a gas grill with three burners. I start with all of them on and get the temperature to 450° and set the pan over the middle burner. Close the lid and bake for 7 minutes. Then, I turn the middle burner off and bake, with indirect heat for 8 minutes, adjusting the other burners to maintain 450°. When the cheese on top is turning brown, it's done. These are the times that work for me, but I presume all grills are different.

One thing you must be very careful of is making sure you take a silicon spatula and loosen the pizza from the sides of the pan immediately after you take if off the grill (or out of the oven) or the cheesy caramelized edges stick and you'll really mess up your beautiful pizza. (And you don't want to scratch your pan with a sharp knife.) The first time I made it, I tried to use a plastic knife and it melted. :eek:

Once the edges are loosened, because you've put the dough in the pan with lots of olive oil, it slides right out of the pan - but it's very heavy.

It is really fun to make and just delicious. I use Chris Bianco's no cook tomato sauce - ridiculously easy and delicious.

Edited to add link for tomato sauce.

in December I’ve bought the king crab legs at Costco. Super yum.

I used to have to go to Europe to go shop at Muji - I still use their omelette pan that I bought at muji Düsseldorf in 2006. Then muji recently opened up in sf about 5-6 years ago and now I’ve gone about 2-3 times if that often. So I sort of know what you mean by Alaska king crab legs although I’d still love it.

tonight’s supper:
tartine bread - separate toasts with butter and peanut butter & Crofters morello cherry jam
I know I say it’s $12 but it’s 35-Oz (1000gm) loaf. It’s huge. I think I can actually get 16-18 slices. I sliced and froze 6 pieces and it was quite under half the loaf.
so one used to have to go to Tartine (very very difficult parking) at 5p to get their daily bread. Total hassle.
now they wholesale it and I can fetch it at 9:30a at a place that’s on the drive home or just 5 min drive (in San Francisco so I’m factoring traffic & parking). At 9:30a I’m usually the only client so mega convenience.
with it being easier to get Tartine bread, I get it weekly and it’s just as special as when it was a very luxury item not because of cost but Because of the mega time commitment to fetch it. Before I could get it at my local gourmet grocer, I probably had it once a year because I only would go to tartine once a year if that often - it’s just such a total pain and it is sized like EssA Bagel or twice that of Denise Acabo’s chocolate store in Paris. Even LaDuree is bigger.

Yes very crispy because of all that delicious oil and high heat is the mark of Detroit pizza. Yours sounds and looks yummy. And it sounds like there is a learning curve with getting it out. no plastic knives.

silicon ftw :-)
and metal spatula or butter knife, yes?

We've eaten quite well as of late, so tonight will be boneless buffalo chicken bites and a Home Run pizza or 2, both from the freezer, with crudites and perhaps a caesar salad. I'm on my first IPA of the afternoon but that's for another thread.

While buying dried fruit at TJ's today it occurred to me that we hadn't made NYT's Weeknight Fancy Chicken and Rice, which is sort of like a simplified biryani, so it's what was for dinner tonight. (We used dried mango instead of apricot because it's how we made it the first time we ate it.) Delicious! No veggies with dinner but every time I walk past my tomato plants I eat a handful.

This is an absolute winner! I made it tonight and it was gorgeous to look at and even better to eat. Delicious. And I am not normally a fan of deep dish pizza. I have never really liked it and much prefer Napoletana style. But this was awesome and I will definitely make it again.

A handful? lol. I ate one pear tomato today...the first one all week. I might have another cherry tomato by thursday.
Aren't tomatoes a fruit because they have seeds?

Pictures or it didn't happen.

Yeah, too late, sorry. But it looked exactly like ILuvParis‘s pics. And tasted awesome.

It's completely gone?
