I cheated on the crust. This was a spontaneous attempt, so didn't have everything I needed to make a crust and not enough time to go get the stuff, so I bought a crust (can't remember the name of the company right now, but not Boboli. Mama Mia's or something?). The sauce and all the toppings I did myself, even used the basil grown in the backyard as well as the tomatoes for the sauce, and roasted a couple.
It's not hard to make a round rust though. Buy a rimmed pizza pan (same ones I used to use when I worked at Mazzio's/Pizza Hut), lay dough over pan, use roller to cut off excess, take another rimmed pan brush bottom of pan lightly with EVOO (very lightly) and place over dough until ready for toppings, about 15 minutes. Dough forms perfectly round in pan. [Reply]

The sauce was 4 cups chicken broth, 1/4 soy sauce, 1/4 cup mirin, several garlic cloves and ginger. Boil for about 20 mins and remove garlic and ginger. Add shiitake mushrooms boil another 5.
Just used cheap ramen packs and tossed the seasoning.
The chicken was marinated in ponzu and lime juice with garlic.
The eggs were soft boiled and marinated for a few hours in mirin and soy sauce.

Thanks. Will have to try this. Looks great. [Reply]
Made a little celebratory dinner for a new job I'm starting on the 15th. Heading off for a little family vacay next week and then it's back to the real world.

Did you munch down the filet off the porterhouse before you took the pic? [Reply]

That was sold as a bone in strip at my local Hyvee. $15/lb. Didn't have a porterhouse and the T-bones were $20/lb and cut thin as hell. Meat case didn't have the same shine to it as usual in these COVID times and I didn't want to go into Costco for the good stuff. So that's what I got. Pretty much the only steak in the case regardless of cut that wasn't cut down to 1/2" or 3/4". [Reply]

Prices are so high they are cutting them thinner so they will sell. In my early days I was a meat cutter and we never cut steaks more than 3/4. Different times. [Reply]
