If you buy the pizza crust, the mozzarella and the sauce it's quite easy
to make an acceptable lunch with vegetables and meats of your choice.
Sure, it's not as good as the real thing but it's not bad when you are
hungry and in a hurry.

Find a standard white bread recipe like the one on your package of
yeast. Substitute olive oil for the butter and water for the milk.
Follow the directions. It only needs to rise once and you're good to
go.

I just posted about this last week in a different thread. (not
surprised that you didn't see it though)

I'm using bread flour from a 25 pound bag, and it's pretty compacted.
(I should weight it next time to see how much "2 cups" really is.) You
might need to use a little more flour, but the dough is very soft and
just barely manageable, and it's supposed to be like that. Dust the
surface with a little more flour to keep it from sticking to your hands.
If you try to make a dough this wet using all purpose flour, you'll
have a big sticky mess:

I make the crust by putting 2 cups of bread flour, 1 cup of water, 1 tsp
salt, 2 Tbsp oil, and 1/2 tsp active dried yeast in a Tupperware bowl,
stir it up, and let it sit for an hour. Then I cover it and put in the
refrigerator and use it to make a pizza 2 or 3 days later. It's not so
much waiting a few days to make the pizza, it's having the dough mixed
up in advance and ready. The slow fermentation in the fridge adds to
the flavor, and it also develops the gluten without kneading.

For sauce, I take a (14 oz) can of stewed tomatoes and cook them down to
a paste over high heat, adding some garlic and oregano.

Usually just top with cheese, although I have been known to fry some
bulk turkey sausage with a little fennel seed and cayenne added, and
sprinkle that on top before adding the cheese.

I'm still working on my technique; trying to develop a "master recipe"
before working on variations. Good luck :-)

Bob

Do you buy low salt tomatoes? I find that when I cook down canned
tomato products, they get inedibly salty.

I like salty. Are stewed tomatoes available in low salt? I may try it.

Can I call you a salt wuss and get away with it? Why don't you open a
can of tomato paste and use that?

I ONLY buy "no salt added" tomato products. They are close to the same
price, so why not?

I can get a "no salt added" tomato paste too. :-) IMHO the flavor is
superior.

Most people with certain medical risk factors are advised to reduce
their sodium consumption. That's what I've done, and now full salt
doesn't taste good to me anymore. Actually, I don't buy stewed tomatoes
very much because I don't like that much sugar in my tomatoes, either.

> > Why don't you open a
> > can of tomato paste and use that?

That's generally what I do. We buy the little cans at Costco (6oz).
You just have to buy a box. Rather than thickening canned tomatoes or
tomato sauce by cooking it down, I add a can of paste.

I've never met a can of tomato paste with added salt. Perhaps there are
regional differences? I've also found that canned crushed tomatoes
don't have added salt.

After looking at ingredient labels for most other foods, I found it
refreshing to look at the ingredient list for tomato paste this morning.

Please watch your attribution snipping. I'm a low salt advocate.

And yes, locally here, there are cans labeled "no salt added" for tomato
paste. I see I'm going to have to take the digicam to the grocery store.

There is a drastic difference in sodium content.

I just checked. You were attributed correctly in my post. The above,
however, is not correct.

I'd be interested in reading what you find.

However, note that they aren't lying if they say, "no salt added", if
nobody else adds salt either. It's still true, and I think it's handy
for people to know.

I worked with a woman who told me that she always bought pure vegetable
oil that was marked, "contains no cholesterol". She was not happy when
I explained to her that *no* pure vegetable oil contains cholesterol!

I pulled a can of Contadina tomato paste from the pantry. Ingredients:
tomatoes.

The canned diced tomatoes do have added salt.

Contadina also has a paste with salt, sugar, minced onion, garlic, and
spices in it. The "Italian Style" paste. It's really more of a
spaghetti sauce concentrate than a tomato paste (not that there's
anything wrong with that) I keep a can or two in the pantry for when
I'm feeling lazy. It's better than a lot of the jarred sauces.

I'm an avid label reader. There really is a drastic difference in sodium
content. I only purchase "No Salt Added" veggies if they are available
in what I want. The ones available locally are tomatoes, tomato sauces,
tomato paste, peas, corn, green beans (both cut and french style), and
spinach.
I wish they had them in mushrooms, so I just buy fresh in the amounts I
intend to use since they don't keep long.

I can also get low sodium tuna, but the price is assinine.

Ok, I'll check that next time I hit the store. :-) I don't pay a
significantly higher price for "no salt added" tomato paste, but I may
be being misled. Thanks.

than the jarred.

There are a number of flavored pastes of various sorts these days. It's
somewhat annoying as my usual supermarket shelves them on the bottom
where it's dark, and it can take a couple tries at times to get the
correct one.

It's a trade-off. Do you want homemade, where you can control the
flavor, or do you want easy and less expensive? I do both, depending
on how energetic I'm feeling and on what's in the house.

I've never made White Pizza. I'd be happy if someone posted a recipe,
though.

You do not need a recipe. Start with the best crust you can make. Don't
put tomato on it. Put whatever else you like on it.

My fave to make at home is sliced garlic, sprinkling of crushed chili
pepper, fresh mozzarella and oil-- needs salt too.
Some of my faves to buy a potato and onion, with just that, some
rosemary, black pepper and raw oil when cooked. Zucchine, which is sliced
garlic, zucchine, salt and oil. My fave pizza period is stracchino cheese
with raw arugula torn over it when it comes out and then a thread of good
raw oil.
Many like tuna and onion, but I don't.

I still start with a canned tomato sauce, so mine isn't completely
homemade. I'd love to put tomato slices on our pizzas, but Crash gets
sick from the texture. Some folks do. I used to get sick from
bananas, even though I love them.

Thank you! We love white pizza, but haven't had it in years, since we
moved from St. Paul.

If I were making one just for myself, I think I'd go with Greek salad
ingredients. We may go with clams when I make this.

I don't rely on the "sauce" for the flavor....just the topping
ingredients and a fresh sprinkle of Penzeys' Italian seasoning. That
does more than a couple of tablespoons of sauce spread across the
crust. And the BEST mozzarella and grated parmesan cheese you can
afford!!

I love it and sometimes replace the fresh basil with Sunny Paris. This
sauce is perfect for Thai chicken pizza.

If I put stuff like tomato slices on, my pizza tends to turn into a

Do you seed the tomatoes first? Just squeeze the seed goo out and then
slice. Easily done with Roma tomatoes.

Buy some canned Roma tomatoes. Put them in a strainer and stab each one.
Let them drain an hour or two. When ready to make the pizza, scatter some
oregano and sliced garlic on the crust and squish the tomatoes in your fist,
through your fingers on top. Proceed as if you had used anything else. It
usually tastes better than almost anything else.

We do both, at the same time!

The easiest is to open a can of tomato sauce (a small can, 8 oz is
plenty for us), spoon on pizza and spread around. It's already
seasoned. We add dried herbs on top of that. If we're ambitious, we'll
put the dried herbs in the can of sauce and let it sit for a few minutes
before spreading.

I have a jar of pesto that came bundled with spaghetti sauce. I
