pizza no. 10 : buffalo chicken.
occasion : it's Wednesday (again).
crust : our whole wheat usual. I promise I'll be trying out more crusts and different cooking methods at some point turing this pizza adventure! Right now, while things have been so busy, it's made more sense to just use what I know and let the experimentation be in the toppings. 🙂
sauce : a cream sauce similar to this but we didn't add parm to the sauce (there was plenty of other cheese on this pizza). To get the "buffalo chicken" flavor, we added several tablespoons of Frank's red hot right into the sauce.
cheese : mozzarella & crumbled bleu cheese!
toppings : grilled chicken & extra Frank's red hot sauce. (I just liberally tossed it all over the pizza.)
thoughts : fun fact – buffalo chicken wings are my favorite appetizer. Preferably ordered at a dive bar during happy hour. The goal here was to try and get some of that same flavor on a pizza and the results were… pretty good! Basically, we liked it, but we think there is room for improvement. Paul thinks it might be better if we had skipped adding the hot sauce into the cream base and just added it on top. He also thinks we should have added bleu cheese to the cream sauce. I'll keep you posted.
