Roccbox Pizza Oven
My latest cooking toy is the Roccbox portable pizza oven, which can get to 500 degrees C. At that temperature, a pizza takes about 90 seconds to cook.

Pizza Boeuf Oeuf (Beef and Egg Pizza)
This version of pizza is popular in France and is a favorite of my nephew Alexandre. For one person, this was made with 2 oz. of ground beef which was lightly cooked, and then a raw egg was put on top of the pizza when it was about half cooked. He also added some yellow Read More …
Tarte Flambee v. 3 (Flammekueche, Flammkuchen, Alsatian Pizza)
I had some leftover Herbed Yogurt Cheese (Suzma) , which I thought might make a good topping for Tarte Flambe, and I was right. I think this illustrates the point that there is a wide range of soft-ish cheeses which go well with bacon and onion as a topping for a flatbread. This is how I Read More …
Blue Cheese, Pistachio, and Onion Pizza
I recently saw a post on how delicious gorgonzola, walnuts, and red onions are as a topping for pizza. I liked the idea, and made the same sort of thing with what I had on hand, which was blue cheese, pistachios, and yellow onions. It was delicious. I think the only thing I really lost Read More …
Pissaladiere (Pizza with Onions, Anchovies, and Olives)
This is one of my favorite pizzas. I made this a bit more Italian-style than Provencal, since I had a half cup of tomato sauce in my refrigerator to use up. Here is how we made it for 2 persons last night Pizza dough for two people (from Pizza for One or for Many Read More …

Tarte Flambee v. 2 (Flammekueche, Flammkuchen, Alsatian Pizza)
This is how I used some home-made ricotta, and it turned out exceptionally well. I think this is partially because I had very good home-made Cottage Bacon to use. This is a variation on my earlier post on Tarte Flambee, mostly using a different kind of cheese. ( Tarte Flambee v1 ) This will serve Read More …
Pulled Pork Pizza
This is one of my son Ben’s favorite dishes and is a good example of Southern – Italian fusion cuisine. I had some leftover Pulled Pork from an earlier post and decided to make two trays for a dinner last night. One tray had sliced mushrooms, and one tray had pickled jalapenos and sliced onions.

Shrimp Pizza
Frank Pepe’s in New Haven is famous for their clam pizza, and there is a good version of it in Peter Reinhart’s excellent book American Pie. In Houston it was much easier to get good shrimp than good clams, so I started making a similar pizza using shrimp as the base. This is my latest Read More …
