Our Adventures in Japan: pizza

pizza

The media has been running pizza delivery ads left and right, so of course, it gave me a hankering for some pizza.

I wasn't willing to shell out the money for delivery, so I bought some ingredients and pre-made crusts and dinner was on...

Take a look at these huge brown mushrooms, they were selling these in bulk because they weren't "normal" sized...whatever, I was happy that they were selling so many for so cheap!

We also added some black olives, salami and edam cheese.

The pre-made crusts were 22 centimeters (about 8 inches) and there were 2 in the package.

My first attempt, the pizza got a little darker than I expected, but it was delicious.

My second attempt, I had a lot of sliced mushrooms leftover, so I put it all on the pizza...yummy!

I loved the crust, almost cracker like and very crisp.

I think my hankering for pizza has subsided for now...maybe.
