ASDA Pizza

[Don]

Astagfirallah. But the infidel's temptation is strong and it is sweet (er...salty).

:D

Just watching a piece on the news about Brits and their obesity. These people have got to be the most clueless, tasteless, impoverished people in the world when it comes to topic of food. Let them have their sausages :face:

Oh, Taz. I had a Joojeh/Koobideh combo plate the other day that I would give up all of my deeply-held Western values for. Where do I sign to join the Axis of Evil?

[Lewis]

Sez that lot, who had to start wiping their arses with their hands to give their sand curry a bit of flavour.

[Dquincy]

This looks wonderful. I've been thinking of the Ooni for a while now - do you need loads of space?

They're really good. The heat output is probably marginally less than a traditional brick built oven, which my bro has. But it's negligible and the brick ovens take a good hour to get up to the required temp, where as the Ooni takes about 15 minutes. Plus the Ooni is fairly compact - photo below - and the feet fold away, etc so you could take it on holiday with you if you were going camping.

[Boydy]

I want to see what Taz eats in a typical week.

[Lewis]

I feel like a normal oven could cook that.

[Don]

I want to see what Taz eats in a typical week.

It's always been a bit of a tribal affair since I've had to fend for myself but particularly now with the COVID effects on my senses pushing me ever further away from acceptable social norms.

1pm - Don's Trademark Greek Yoghurt Special Bowl (see previous conversations for details)

8pm - Enough pasta to feed a family of 4.

9pm - Fruit plate equivalent to what must be about 10 fruit portions.

Ultimately, the fundamental theory is simple; keep it natural. Anything with an ingredient a child can't identify can be regarded as toxic. I think my chilli sauces with their Xanthan Gums and what not are the only notable exception but even they're being phased out. Lemon juice and herbs for flavouring.

It's less cultured than a stag-do in Benidorm and I'm fully aware the world isn't ready for it yet but let me tell you, I'm OD-ing off the endorphin hit like it's a Big Mac meal and the energy and after-effects of it all is not up for debate. L337 bodyhacking.

[Don]

Got a work colleague who shipped a pizza oven from Italy along with regular shipments of flour. Man is really at the forefront of hipster innovation so jump on now before it becomes the new fondue.

[Dquincy]

I feel like a normal oven could cook that.

A normal oven cannot get to the high temperatures (circa 450c) that a pizza oven will. Plus you don't get the woodfire flavour.

I have done them in the oven before and they're ok, but nowhere near as good.

[niko_cee]

I'm sure they're good and all, but those pizza ovens always look a right faff to me. Small pizzas, having them probably stick to the peel as you try to put them in, one at a time cooking even if it's rapid. No thanks. A conventional oven dialled up to 11 still makes a good pizza and can be done indoors.

[Dquincy]

Yeah, I won't lie, it is a bit of a faff. But I like it.

[Giggles]

Build your own.

[Jimmy Floyd]

That slating of Spanish pork products on the last page is NOT acceptable. They are far better than our shite.

[Spikey M]

Sorry Jimmy Corbyn.

[Shindig]

Jimmy's in the pocket of Big Spanish Sausage.

[Spikey M]

This is no time for gay jokes.

[Shindig]

Follow the money.

[Jimmy Floyd]

God forbid that one's pork should taste of something rather than just having the name of a non-first-class county shoved in front of it and be dipped in baked bean sauce.

[Ian]

Well I don't want to steam in with my radical ideas here but I actually like pork products from more than one country.

[Kikó]

Traitor.

[Spikey M]

My issue is more with cured meats in general, than Spains attempts at it. It's just that they compound the issue by adding Paprika to it.

[randomlegend]

We make pizzas in the home oven quite a bit. Mate has just bought a pizza oven second hand off one of the companies that does pizzas at food festivals and stuff. We went round for one the other night and there's really no contest, they are so much better.

Once the wedding is done and I actually have some money again I'll get one I think.

[Jimmy Floyd]

This is why you lost to me in the final. You need to hate things and you need to hate them for arbitrary reasons.

[Ian]

*Takes notes*

Is "Because it's not the thing I like!" reason enough?

[Jimmy Floyd]

There's no such thing as an opinion, only facts, and too often other people get their facts wrong. Make sure you remember that and be as aggressive as possible when reinforcing it, especially when it comes to important topics like ham and sausages.

[Spikey M]

You should start a cult Jimmy. I believe 20% of income is the accepted norm for cult membership.

I don't doubt it but where is this commercial oven living, how easy/affordable is it to run and, if it's outside, what do you do when you want a pizza during the 11 months of the year it's cold and raining?

Sure, build your house around one if you get the chance, but fuck having to build a(nother) kitchen outside.

[Dquincy]

Just 1 month where it's acceptable to cook outside? :saywhat: Madness.

It takes about 60 seconds to cook a pizza once the pizza oven is upto temperature. No great hardship really.

[Spikey M]

He lives on some French island in the shadow of Jersey. They don't see the sun.

[niko_cee]

Don't get me started on Jers-'the sunniest place in the british isles'-ey with their fucking measuring chicanery.

But yeah, whatever, I still want to eat pizza between October and March, I don't want to have to go outside to do it.

[Yevrah]

I must admit, I'd need some convincing on the merits of spending hundreds of pounds on a pizza oven to sit outside in the English rain for most of the year while I have a perfectly functioning oven in the kitchen already.

[Spikey M]

You could say the same for Barbecues.

[Giggles]

How does the price compare? I can buy a disposable barbecue for a fiver or get a kettle for about €35.

[Luca]

Cooking pizza at 450-500c makes a world of difference vs. a conventional oven. Where I’m waffling a bit is along the lines of the first part of Yev’s post. Am I going to want to eat enough pizza to justify the price, given Canada’s allotment of 3 weeks of summer?

Ah, fuck, the answer is probably yes.

Dquincy is the opening big enough to fit a pan or cast-iron skillet? If it’s multi-purpose I could be further tempted.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

You could say the same for Barbecues.

My Dad built a housing for his barbecue so we could have them any time of the year. It was glorious.

[Spikey M]

My wife has an Aussie uncle and he's done the same. Well, it's more like the little beach bars you get in the Caribbean. Or a fuck off shed with 2 giant open windows.

Anyway, It's a brilliant set up. He has a grill like you see in Kebab shops, a smoker, 2 fridges full of beer and optics on the wall.

Covid ruining our annual Summer Barbecue round there is one of the great tragedies of our time.

[Giggles]

He needs a few kegs.

My dream is to build a timber frame pool (table) room in my garden, complete with fuck off tv and bar.

[niko_cee]

Anyway pizza snobs, talk to me about sauce. I find it hard to get it to the right consistency without just cooking it for ages, which seems like it might not necessarily be the best idea.

[Giggles]

Use BBQ.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Disgusting.

[Shindig]

BBQ's fine with chicken.

[Spikey M]

I just use tomato puree.

[Giggles]

Ketchup would work.

[Luca]

Anyway pizza snobs, talk to me about sauce. I find it hard to get it to the right consistency without just cooking it for ages, which seems like it might not necessarily be the best idea.

Cooking it is the wrong approach. Fresh, skinless, crushed tomatoes from a jar/can is the right approach.

[niko_cee]

Tried that, watery as fuck. What process do you have to put them through to remove the excess moisture? I want a smooth, thick(ish) sauce. Even draining them of what they are in and mushing them up doesn't really seem to work (and often the run off ends up being about the same consistency as the mushed stuff :cab: ).

These are the tomatoes I have been using (I'll spoiler it as the image is bigger than the can):

https://s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/cibosano-cdn-1/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/30110346/MU1330.jpg

[Pepe]

Can't you strain the tomatoes?

[Giggles]

They’re plum aren’t they?

Either way though, blitz them.

[Luca]

Yeah, if they're the pelati (full tomatoes in liquid), blitzing them should be good. You also might be overestimating the amount of sauce you need as well - a half cup is plenty for a normal sized pizza.

If you truly want a thicker sauce, cook the blitzed mixture down over medium-low heat for 30m-1h - this will remove some of the moisture.

[Spikey M]

Tomato. Puree.

[Dquincy]

Cooking pizza at 450-500c makes a world of difference vs. a conventional oven. Where I’m waffling a bit is along the lines of the first part of Yev’s post. Am I going to want to eat enough pizza to justify the price, given Canada’s allotment of 3 weeks of summer?

Ah, fuck, the answer is probably yes.

Dquincy is the opening big enough to fit a pan or cast-iron skillet? If it’s multi-purpose I could be further tempted.

You could fit a pan in it, just not a large one. But there are plenty of non-pizza recipes which the Ooni can do such, such as lamb cutlets, steaks, etc. But anything that needs cooking time over say 10 mins, I'd recommend getting the gas appliance.

[Luca]

Tomato. Puree.

Yeah, Niko, the Mutti Passata is a good option if you don't want to go through the effort described above.

[Giggles]

A different name for everything and making sure to use it :lol:

[Spikey M]

A different name for everything and making sure to use it :lol:


I love how wanky Italians are about their food. You're chucking tomato sauce on pasta and dough lads. Calm down.

:nodd:

[Luca]

A different name for everything and making sure to use it :lol:

I mean, I’m just referencing the brand he’s familiar with and what it’s likely to say on the tin.

[niko_cee]

I feel using pre-made passata is defeatist.

Or would that be more authentic? :henn0rz:

[Luca]

Nah, authentically the sauce is never cooked, but in a pinch passata works just fine and gets at the consistency you’re after.

But like I said, with crushed tomatoes you probably just want to use less than you think you need. Doesn’t need to be overflowing. 100-120g (half a cup) should do. If you’re blitzing the pelati I’d put the whole tomatoes in and about 1/3 of the liquid, then use the rest of the liquid to adjust the consistency vs. blitzing the whole thing at once.

[randomlegend]

I bought a big tin of San Marzano tomatoes in juice, blited the whole tin with some salt and basil and froze it into portions. It's great.

[Boydy]

Passata is different from puree, no?

[randomlegend]

Passata is different from puree, no?

Yes, tomato puree is MUCH more concentrated.

[Spikey M]

Mine is. Puree is concentrated tomato sauce, Passata is plain tomato sauce.

[Boydy]

Yeah so puree as a pizza sauce is mental and Giggles is wrong about "a different word for everything".

[Spikey M]

It's fine. You just use a light covering. In most recipes I've seen they just mix it with olive oil.

[Luca]

Passata is different from puree, no?

Eh, it depends on where you are. Usually they're interchangeable, but some people call tomato paste (highly concentrated) "puree," and that's obviously a different thing.

[Giggles]

Yeah so puree as a pizza sauce is mental and Giggles is wrong about "a different word for everything".

Or not.

Anyway. Passata is passata, purée is purée, paste is purée.

[Foe]

Just buy the Morrison’s spicy chicken pizza for £2 and be done with it. Dip it in ketchup for extra points.

Ranch, my man. You people are in the stone age

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Ranch is just creamy vomit.

Garlic sauce.

[Luca]

Dipping pizza in sauce :nono:

[Boydy]

Dipping pizza in sauce :nono:

What about crusts?

[Boydy]

Garlic sauce.

That's the one. I've said it before but I'll say it again - Domino's should sell bottles of their garlic and herb dip in shops.

[Giggles]

What about crusts?

Especially on those ones he likes that are mostly comprised of dry crust.

[Giggles]

That's the one. I've said it before but I'll say it again - Domino's should sell bottles of their garlic and herb dip in shops.

That’s the exact one I’m thinking of indeed. There would be times that the sauce would be the reason I’d order Dominoes even though the pizza is always worse than Pizza Hut. Out of my local two anyway.

Nearly 700kcal/100g :drool:

[Don]

That's what chilli oil is for.

[Baz]

I just use tomato puree.

:sick:

[Luca]

What about crusts?

Ideally a little bit charred and smoky, and definitely not dipped in salad dressing.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Pizza places in Poland used to put mayo and ketchup all over pizzas if you ordered a takeaway.

Thankfully they realised it's shit and only a small number of mentalists will request it.

[Lewis]

That's the one. I've said it before but I'll say it again - Domino's should sell bottles of their garlic and herb dip in shops.

Hellmann's do a very serviceable version.

[Dquincy]

Anyway pizza snobs, talk to me about sauce. I find it hard to get it to the right consistency without just cooking it for ages, which seems like it might not necessarily be the best idea.
Passata all the way for me.

[Kikó]

Ketchup for me. Straight from the bottle into my throat.

[Dquincy]

Bet you deepthroat the bottle you deviant.

[niko_cee]

Made a meat feast pizza tonight in homage to all the miscreants on here. Chicken was a bit dry tbh. Not sure it's really a winning combo.

[Lewis]

These (https://www.crostamollica.com/products/stromboli-pizza-chilled/) are really good. It was four quid in Sainsbury's, but I think that was with a quid off.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

:nodd:

They also used to do a folded smaller pepperoni pizza which was great but I think they only do them as margheritas now.

[Offshore Toon]

Aldi do one just like that for about £1.50.

[Manc]

Tried The Vegan Works from PJ's last week. Top tier.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

You're a wrong 'un.

[Waffdon]

I’ve been getting Asda’s Sizzler pizza but I can’t not try that new Spicy Donner pizza dominos have

[Spikey M]

We've got a vegetarian supreme in the fridge. Nearly picked up some vegan monstrosity with Jackfruit on it. Tears would have been shed.

[Don]

Not as much as the tears your dependants shed when you die from a cancer/they drown from rising sea levels.

[Kikó]

Definitely ordering pizza later now but from this place: https://www.ubereats.com/gb/london/food-delivery/vicoli-di-napoli/9Xa9NzGdQ3aIcU6KKWVMnQ

Kind of place Giggles hates but the pizza is the bollocks.

[Ian]

I'd hate them too at those prices.

I've got a place near me that does ones which look similar those but for about half the price.

[Kikó]

Hi, this is London, nice to meet you.

[Spikey M]

Pizza is by far the most overpriced takeaway. A basic dough mix with a bit of cheese and tomato sauce for 15 quid. :happycry:

[Offshore Toon]

You're far enough north that you don't need to be paying those prices. If you can't get 12 wings for under £2.50 within ten minutes then you've really fucked up.

[Lewis]

I was told by somebody who runs one that restaurants want to sell you stuff for three times what it costs them to make, so pizza must be a real winner for them unless the ovens burn through a fortune.

[Jimmy Floyd]

I've never worked out how any restaurant is even slightly profitable, the amount of money they must churn through in overheads. I guess that's why they need to mistreat waiters.

[Ian]

Hi, this is London, nice to meet you.

I know but £16? Is that the cheapest you can get a decent pizza for?

[Kikó]

I know but £16? Is that the cheapest you can get a decent pizza for?


This is a good pizza but I'd go £8-10 is probably standard for decent.

[Giggles]

I know but £16? Is that the cheapest you can get a decent pizza for?

Imagine paying it for that shit.

[Kikó]

:D x

[Giggles]

I couldn’t disappoint. I was also hoping it would make John come back to remind me about the spaghetti thing again.

[Jimmy Floyd]

People who live outside the south east need to stop flaunting their price privilege, it affects my mental health. This is meant to be a safe space.

[Lofty]

You can get three decent 12 inchers of any combination delivered for £15 here and when pissed I have pushed the button on it :drool:

Dominoes is scandalous. Considering getting a costco special in next time I do a supply run, though they are so big they don't fit in our fridge properly.

[Spikey M]

Birmingham was king for this. Nothing like a cheeky Caspian on the way home from a night out. £4 odd for a 6 inch pizza, chips and a drink. (Prices correct as of 2010)

[Dquincy]

Just had a coop stuffed crust. Very nice.

[Foe]

I stick with Morrison’s spicy chicken pizza.

£2 and it’s great. Recently discovered if you add a bit of chorizo to the top of it, you’ve evolved into charizard and smash the elite 4.

[Lofty]

Had a large deep pan ASDA one with the 6 most spicy toppings and chilli oil to finish the other night. Flew a bit too close to the sun with that and rode the ring of fire for a good 12 hours after.

[Spikey M]

We're trying to give the take aways a bit of a break at the moment, but also trying to keep the weekends interesting. Charles Bigham's ready meals are top quality. We had his Tikka Masala last week and his Thai Curry tonight. The Masala was better (Take away quality) but the Thai was pretty great too. I think we're going to work our way through them all.

[Giggles]

I found a slimming world tikka masala sauce in a tub in the back of the freezer the other day. I’d say it’s there years, would have came from Iceland I think, but it was surprisingly nice.

M&S pizzas are truly pathetic. No wonder they're throwing all manner of sides in the deal.

[Spikey M]

M&S pizzas are truly pathetic. No wonder they're throwing all manner of sides in the deal.

They used to do dirty fries with them that saved the day, but they've decided to chuck a tomato sauce all over them now which kills any hope of crispy chip, bacon or cheese. The dickheads.

The main problem we had with the pizza it's self is the crust : pizza ratio is an absolute mess. It's not a crust if it's half the pizza.

I'm getting angry just thinking about it. Shaking.

[Lofty]

Still a regular ASDA pizza fan, even though my local doesn't do it so I have to drive to Chorley. I can't believe people pick the pre-made stuff instead of getting one made up fresh.

[Spikey M]

Are you doing an impression of a lonely 70 year old man replying to a post on the Asda Facebook page? It's really good if you are.

[SvN]

:D

[SvN]

I only just realised that Lofty bumped the thread that hadn't had a post in 4 months in it with that post. :D

[Kikó]

Hello is this thing on? I hate this bloody thing.

[Lofty]

I just feel passionately that going to the pizza counter only to pick a pre-made up instead of getting one made is mentalist behaviour :D

[Jimmy Floyd]

For a while I forgot that Lofty has moved somewhere else now, so I was picturing him driving down from Barrow to Chorley just to get an ASDA pizza.

[Spikey M]

It's the life of a pensionable widow Jim. He likes to keep busy.

[Lofty]

The Barrow ASDA has a pizza counter, my ex girlfriend worked there many moons ago. Now it is ran by a miserable old crone who rebukes anyone daring to order pizza, by all accounts.

[igor_balis]

Lofty replies to those FB things where it's like

5 * 10 + 7 ÷ 4 = ?????
ONLY GENIUS KNOW

And he gets them wrong

Shoebury doesn't even sound like a real place.

Christ, what did you do to deserve that? I had to go through the dump for petrol and it sapped the life out of me.

Shoeburyness to give it it's full name. Famous for the ASDA, MOD waste land and now Big Bobby Marley.

We know someone there and we go for their daughter's birthday every year to a shit restaurant (this year was Toby Carvery, usually it's Harvester).

[Spikey M]

There must be a good reason you've not ostracised them, but you should probably do it anyway. As if going to Shoebury wasn't bad enough without throwing overcooked beef and undercooked potatoes into the mix.

[Bam]

Mahow doesn't mind traveling if the menu looks good.

[Baz]

Had a Morrisons pizza tonight and it was disgusting.

[Foe]

More details please

Was it from their own counter?

They do a stone baked spicy chicken pizza for £2.50 and it is magnificent.

[Lofty]

Had a counter one the other week, it was alright but ASDA still the king.

[Giggles]

Aldi deep pan meat feast.

[SincereTheRebel]

So after the 13 pages, the conclusion to the best oven pizza brand is Asda?

[Lewis]

I had one of the new Franco Manca supermarket pizzas, and it wasn't particularly great for £4.50. And that was with the Tesco Clubcard. They wanted £5.70 otherwise and lol mate no. My only previous experience of the company was in Brighton the day the Chinese first got everything shut down, so I had to eat it in the street out of the box like a cretin, and that was better.

[Boydy]

It seems like nearly all supermarket pizzas are at least £4 these days.

[Lewis]

Asda does some wacky two for six quid plus a drink plus a cinema ticket/Sky voucher deal which must be costing everybody involved money.

[Manc]

Just picked up a Franco Manca effort from Tesco. Both looked and tasted like I'd made it myself.

[randomlegend]

No context with which to interpret that.

[niko_cee]

I'm going with shit.

[randomlegend]

The pictures look fairly inoffensive on the website. Although this is as good a time as any to bring up that chilli-honey - the current on-trend pizza topping - is shit.

[niko_cee]

Has any on trend thing ever been good? It's like the equivalent of 'challenging' but for Love Island folk (rather thank star wankers).

[Giggles]

Picked up a couple of Asda ones when up on the dark side the other week. They’re still the best one out there.

[randomlegend]

Has any on trend thing ever been good? It's like the equivalent of 'challenging' but for Love Island folk (rather thank star wankers).

At risk of being a bit of a basic bitch, salted caramel was an on trend thing which is actually good and has cemented it's place in the world IMO.

[Boydy]

I've had some excellent pizzas with "hot honey" on.

By far and away my favourite pizza currently is the Aldi Carlos flatbread Calabrese Salami. It's rectangular anf fucking delicious :drool:

Thanks for sharing. What an input.

Aldis Carlos range has become our go-to as well. Yet to try what is essentially their knock off of Dominos Meteor, but all the rest have been grand.

That sounds savage.

I had ducks tongue for the first time this evening.

Shit, would not recommend.

Fried octopus on the other hand :drool:

Duck tongue pizza?

Couldn't find a general food thread. Is there one?
