Homemade plant-based Detroit-style pizza 💚
Just trying stuff.. this was darn good. I ate a couple of slices with a half plate of hot sauced sprouts–Vitamin S!
I was talking with @savagewalking today and he brought up sourdough pizza crust. I'm really looking forward to trying that, especially with his pointers, but this is NOT that! This is store bought pizza dough.
I always think I'm just going to coax the dough into a shape and it will just do what I think and it literally never does. That's fine when it's not in a pan, but when I put it in a pan and it's not uniform, well, let's just say this is Detroit-esque, maybe it's like Ann Arbor-style, I dunno 😆
But the point is, those high rise crusty parts were ahhhmazing. I got a little crazy with the plant-based mozz, and sauce, but I felt like a million bucks after eating this and sprouts, so I suppose it's all good!
📌 The mozz is @eatplantbased.com14 with 50/50 cashews/hummus. It's got a slight golden hue because of the hummus.
📌 The sauce is based on @floralapronblog's amazing little pizza sauce recipe. I love it so much! Here's my take: whisk together 1 can (6oz./170ml) tomato paste, the same amount of water, 1½ tsp Italian seasoning, 1 tsp dried minced garlic, 10 cranks coarsely ground black pepper, a couple pinches of celery salt, and about 1½ tsp maple syrup. So easy, so good for you, and I like it better than anything from the store!
I made one pizza on parchment dusted with cornmeal and the other in a springform pan with just cornmeal. I wish I could cornmeal the sides of the pan but with gravity and all, that's not happening. I know Detroit-style is supposed to use a steel oil pan, but I'm not that dedicated to this... yet, lol. I did add the mozz to parts of the crust for baking and it was yums! Oh, I also hit the pizzas with the torch after they came out, it gives them a delicate 'fired' aroma ☺️
