Make your own pizza and it will be much more tastefull than your ordered ones.
But before I start with the ingredients I will tell something about this pizza variant, I guess a lot of people might think that this pizza variant originated in Italy or Hawaii but despite its name it originated in Germany which is a modified version of the Italian Pizza. The basic ingredients for this pizza are ham, pineapple, tomato sauce and cheese but there are some regional variations like in Malaysia and Singapore they use halal chicken or halal chicken ham, some add olives and jalapeno and here in New Zealand they even use barbecue sauce.

Fall has officially arrived. Not sure why I always have a hard time saying goodbye to summer but each year it is challenging for me.

Once you’ve made your own English muffins, you’ll never want to buy them again. Factor in a couple of hours proving time to get Paul Hollywood’s easy version ready to go on the griddle.

This curiosity is perhaps the main reason many restaurants that focus on molecular gastronomy, or the oft-preferred term “modernist cuisine,” have achieved such popularity and success.

This is a barbecue sauce recipe using Kentucky bourbon whiskey. For best results, refrigerate for a day or two, allowing the flavors to blend.
1. In a large skillet over medium heat, combine the onion, garlic, and whiskey. Simmer for 10 minutes, or until onion is translucent. Mix in the ground black pepper, salt, ketchup, tomato paste, vinegar, liquid smoke, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, and hot pepper sauce.
2. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 20 minutes. Run sauce through a strainer if you prefer a smooth sauce.
