Welcome...

There are so many variables that go into making a PIZZA. The hydration of the dough, flour, yeast and many more.. Amounts of any kind of yeast in a pizza can make a big difference. Most recipes posted on the web, use too much yeast in their recipes. What I have found out so far, is either bulk fermenting the dough or cold fermenting the dough will give a better flavor in the crust. I am still experimenting to find different flavors in the crust of pies. In my opinion pizza is all about the best flavor you can achieve in a crust. I still am on the journey about flavors in the crust. Even differences in temperatures in you home or times of the year can influence how much yeast to use. If you want a pizza to develop flavors in the crust, there are many ways to go about achieving this.

Green Dragon Farmer’s Market-Soft Pretzels, Caramel Corn and more

My daughter asked me to go along to Green Dragon Farmer’s Market because she wanted to purchase some beats by: dr dre (ear buds) for her cell phone. Since a lot of stuff is cheaper at Green Dragon I decided to go along. Green Dragon is the other farmers market where my husband and I used to have the caramel popcorn stand. There are also great soft pretzels at Green Dragon and I know the owner of that stand very well. We shopped for awhile at Green Dragon and I got to talk to the new owner of the caramel corn stand I used to own. It felt funny going inside the stand that my husband and I had run for many years. Wanda’s soft pretzels are still the best, in my opinion. The old fashioned conveyor that takes the soft pretzels though the lye bath and into the oven is very interesting. Wanda of the pretzel stand sells frozen dough pizzas. I told her if you ever wanted to learn to make regular pizzas I would help Wanda and her husband learn. They do have a big Blodgett oven in the soft pretzel stand.


If anyone has never been at Green Dragon these are some pictures from Green Dragon Farmers Market and a video of Wanda making the soft pretzels. The soft pretzel dough look a lot like pizza dough.

The pictures are only showing a small part of Green Dragon.
