This blog entry cum tutorial is image intensive, so please bear with the loading time … it is all worth the wait.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Don’t you wish you could make pizza like him?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Here’s what you need …<\/strong><\/p>\n

3lb 6oz\/1.5kg strong white flour<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00bd tbsp salt<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00bd tbsp sugar<\/em><\/p>\n

1\u00bdoz\/45g fresh yeast (or 2 sachets of easy-blend yeast)<\/em><\/p>\n

1 tbsp olive oil<\/em><\/p>\n

1\u00bc pints\/750ml water<\/em><\/p>\n

Now let’s rock<\/span> knead & roll!<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Make sure you are well equipped before you start kneading, pounding and stretching the dough. Forget about boring round pizzas and experiment with maybe errmmm … elephant shaped ones.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Gently pat on the dough …<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Sprinkle some flour on it to give it a smoother texture. Oh … you probably also notice in this photo that a plane shaped pizza mold is also the choice of this pizza master.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Place dough directly in front of you …<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Start rolling with one hand to get the rhythm started …<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Now two hands … roll … roll …<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Roll harder!!!<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Don’t be afraid to try different ways to roll it …<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Make sure you look damn serious to give yourself the professional look while rolling and kneading!<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After about 20 minutes (or when your wrist hurts) … the dough is ready to be shaped to perfection!<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Give it a final inspection for any trace of dust or houseflies that might have got rolled onto the dough<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Now carefully place the mold onto the dough …<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Gently lift up the mold … oops! If the dough doesn’t look right … forget it. Let’s try make an alternative shaped pizza instead.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Knead … press … knead …<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Pull!!!! Pull!!!!<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Now try to impress everyone with more ways to knead the dough …<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Then try pounding it with your elbow that will ensure the pizza is crunchy and salty … thanks to the sand and sweat that was accumulated after an hour at the beach<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

… and finally throw it up in the air and pretend as if you know what you are doing<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Tada!!!! Done! The most amazing alternative shaped pizza dough is ready. Pose for the camera and flaunt your final product to the world!<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Try act cute but make sure you don’t burst into laughter … a professional image is very important!<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Yeah! Perfect ten! Show everyone the hands that creates magical pizzas!<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Making a mess is pretty normal in perfecting the art. So worry not.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Give a final cute pose to the camera!<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The perfect pizza dough ready to go into the oven!<\/em><\/p>\n

That’s hell lot of images eh? Sorry for taking up bandwidth. I couldn’t decide which photos to post and ended up posting almost all the photos I took of Fitzand when he was playing at a restaurant by the beach in Sentosa. The pizza chef saw him and offered him a dough to play with and he had lots of fun creating a big mess there. Hahaha! No … the dough didn’t go into the oven … otherwise there will be quite a big food poisoning scare on the island for a week or two.<\/p>\n

Too damn tired to go through the rest of photos (of Fitzand) … I’ll go get some rest and continue tomorrow night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
