What is stupid cold where you're at?Ceramic. It's supposed to be stupid cold coming up, like my heater will run as the house cools down, so oven time it is.

I’ve added a casual chat room to CookingBites as a place for off-topic banter, light conversation, and short-lived chit-chat that doesn’t belong in forum threads. The chat room is informal and lightly-to-not moderated, with messages being temporary, so it’s ideal for friendly back-and-forth that would otherwise derail discussions. Site rules still apply, but there’s no reporting system or expectation of post-by-post moderation - if something becomes uncomfortable, the right response is to step away. If a topic has substance or lasting value, it still belongs in the forums; everything else can head to chat.
Sorry, I have no copy of the recipe I used for UK style pork pies with raised hot water crust pastry . Its sounds as if Z-Cook may be able to supply you with one plus she has more experience making them than I!

I will make a pizza pie today. To be specific it will be a Chincago style deep dish pizza pie.

Forum GOD!
At 16°F is where my heater can't keep up. Predicted low was -6 but now they're saying 10.
I have several, but have one very simple one that uses a jam jar to shape - might post that. The Hairy Biker's recipe is also good
Melton Mowbray pork pie

As promised, below is an image of my cake pan pizza, my version of Chicago style deep dish. My wife finished her share with gusto. It has everything in it.

We always celebrate pi day on March 14th…3.14.
Although any excuse is a good excuse for pie as long as I’m concerned!

This is my husband’s Rhubarb Apple pie, mine was eating yesterday already. My husband likes a lot of crust, I don’t.

The crust is just italian bread dough - bread flour, yeast, salt, olive oil and water. The topping base starts with olive oil, marinara sauce, powdered garlic, salt and basil. The topping ingredients are onion, tomato, pepperoni, avocado, parmesan cheese, Italian sausage and the whole thing is smothered with mozzarella.Looks really interesting! Never come across that
I don't bother to proof the dough.. I just parbake it in a 9" cake pan for 10-12 minutes in a 400 degree F oven. That causes the dough to rise and ensures that the crust is fully cooked. Then I top the dough and return it to the oven for about 20 minutes. That is cake pan pizza.

Thank you ma'am. I value that from a polished cook like you.
