Norma's Bisquick Pizza Experiment: "This pizza was made with Bisquick’s buttermilk biscuit mix, in combination with a “goody bag” Pete-zza figured out. Peter can figure out almost everything when it comes to making pizza. This was an offshoot of the Betty Crocker pizza mix pizza, I had submitted last week. The crust, crumb, and taste of this pizza was fantastic and it was only mixed and left to ferment for 4 hours. This pizza was called a “Sukie Pizza” because of the story of making a silk purse out of a sow’s ear. This pizza was something that would seem impossible, but turned out.
