Made up four dough-balls for pizzas during this next week, first one was good but I'd run out of both parmesan and fresh basil. Hit my local grocer this morning with the big cheese kiosk, got the parm, then noticed they are now carrying buffalo mozzarella! That hadn't been available here in white-bread UT before, anxious to try it.
Here's today's pie, still using the domestic mozzarella (which ain't bad):

I have bread flour to make my own dough. I use "Bronx City Baking" pizza dough when I'm feeling lazy. I love Margherita pizza with fresh basil.

Yup! Adam Ragusea (where I got the idea) called my version "white table cloth", and his "white tanktop" version was slapping it all into a hoagie roll (which I plan on doing once the snow melts!).
Boardwalk sausage sammich and Italian ice, two favorites from my childhood days in Wildwood NJ.

Dinner this evening was a personal favourite:

Pasta with blue cheese sauce, served with mixed leaves and a French/Italian dressing.

The blue cheese sauce had three - well, four - ingredients: Two blue cheeses - Forme d'Ambert and Gorgonzola Cremosa (both in generous amounts) plus double cream once the cheese (chopped into rough chunks) had melted. The fourth ingredient took the form of adding a few ladles of that glorious and wonderfully starchy pasta cooking broth to the cheese and cream sauce.

Plus, pasta, made by the impressive Italian "rustichella d'abruzzo" company; tonight, I used penne.

And (organic) mixed greens (purchased from the person who grew them): The dressing consisted of olive oil, sherry (Ximenez) vinegar, French mustard, sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, a very small spoon of local honey, very finely diced garlic (three fat cloves), and a generous handful of finely diced fresh parsley.

A glass of white wine from southern France accompanied dinner.

Craved a serious curry this evening, - it is freezing hard outside - and ordered some in, (my order comprised biryani, their take on a classic street dish they describe as "roadside chilli chicken", an old classic that is known as "railway lamb curry", plus peshwari naan; it came with raita and poppadoms) from a local (and exceedingly good) Indian place.

Wow.

This is delicious.

Beef. Just beef. It's been just ruminant meat since 9/2023. Arguably not as interesting as a more varied diet, but the health improvement since going carnivore has been drastic.

Breakfast lunch and dinner, meat only? Is it a variety of meat or just beef, does seafood count I guess? What about sauces or condiments?
