Dat grease

nicce man, can you post a base for the pizza recipe ?

post a base?

I made it up. The dough was bought at a grocery store.

The sauce is sauteed onions and garlic(a ton of garlic) then I throw in a can of tomatoes, oregano, salt, pepper, chili, dehydrated garlic. Then let it cook down until there's very little liquid.

You know you can let the water absorb into the veggies for more flavor, right?

what i meant was, post the recipe for the base

Isn't that what I'm doing by slowly reducing?

Ah well that was the basic recipe. I should mention we have terrible tomatoes here in Vancouver so in my case canned is better to use. Whether or not to use fresh depends on how good the tomatoes are in the are you are. I've noticed for some reason tomatoes in particular are generally way better in Europe.

Most of the water will evaporate rather than absorb. If you want to let it absorb more pull it off the heat and let it steam off for some 15-30 minutes, depending on how much you got.

Ah yeah that's generally what I did. It was on the lowest heat for at least 30 mins.

Decided to make fancy burgers :

Burger on baguette with shallot boursin. Topped with avocado, chorizo and tomato. Demiglaze made from pan drippings.

Microgreen salad with carrot puree dressing

Sweet potatoe baked fries

EDIT :

The next day I wanted to reuse some leftovers for the new dinner:

"Reusing some of the extra burger leftovers I decided to make a sort of tomato/shallot tomato sauce/fresh ketchup then put the burgers in there. I didn’t realize my partner ate half the burgers so there’s too much ketchup and you can’t really see the burgers but trust me they’re in there!

rye bread toast wedges with applewood smoked cheddar and salami

leftover microgreens salad and carrot puree dressing."
