Pizza Dough Discovery! - cjs - 06-19-2011
My old favorite Herb Pizza Dough has been upgraded. I made a batch this morning and reduced the salt to 1 tsp. (from 1 1/2 tsp) and added 1/2 tsp. white pepper. Oh my, you just get this wonderful peppery flavor at the back of your tongue and it is wonderful.
I used up my tuna and smoked trout on this one and it was so good.

You might want to give the white pepper a try in your next pizza dough.

White pepper is like magic dust, isn't it?

Cool idea, Jean! I love the stuff. I see those pine nuts on there. YUMMY! I can't wait until the end of the month. I have been out of pine nuts for so long, I almost forgot what they taste like.

I don't like heat, so I don't use a lot of chiles (except for anchos and poblanos) and routinely omitted the black pepper from anything I made. Then I discovered Penzey's Sarawak white peppercorns and I now happily add pepper.

Jean, I have 27 of your par baked sourdough crusts in the feezer for the 4th. Is there any reason I couldn't add white pepper to my next batch of sourdough? I have a comfort zone with your sourdough --and I love white pepper, and cayenne, and black pepper--I'm so close to Louisiana that a certain "coonass" influence creeps into my Texas palate--they like our stuff too--"fusion". (local)!!

I love Jean's Herb Pizza dough recipe so much, I haven't branched out to the Sour Dough recipe. Based on your recommendation.......I think I need to try it. I think I need to anticipate the Sicilian thick crust I loved from a take out we loved from college!

I'm planning on trying the white pepper in all (and new ones also) the pizza recipes and see which we like best with it. Don't want to make all of them the same, so this should be interesting.
I love that, what pizza can I name "coonass" ???????

How about one with all three peppers in the crust--jalapeno jack cheese on top--finish with with onions, bell peppers, crawdads, and andouille sausage?
