One of the better pizzas that I've made, I think.

Dinner tonight was pizza. That sounds so pedestrian.

Never fear: I made a Californian-style pizza. Homemade sourdough crust. Homemade tomato paste with herbs from the yard. Slivered garlic, sliced mushrooms, and arugula from the farmers' market. House-cured lardo.

Simple, but elegant. The flavor mix was very good: sweet from the tomato, salt and fat from the lardo, pepper and crunch from the lightly wilted arugula, earthiness from the mushrooms.

Now I just need to learn to toss the crusts instead of rolling them...

Pizza - it's what's for dinner.

It's pretty to look at, and I know it's tasty because you made it.

Yum! I'm making my America's Test Kitchen pizza again this weekend. The next step in the experiment: making mini pizzas with my 3" springform pans!

mmmm... ahhhhh...
