Heuston blumenthal. Heavy cast frying pan on stove for 10 mins. Grill preheated to max setting. stick pizza on pan, place under grill 3 minutes done.

But my grills broke

sounds interesting but no need - I'd rather trust pizza to Locatelli than him, pizza stone works perfectly in the oven too. If it aint broke don't fix it.

what?

the traditional way is in a clay oven. The Heston way tries to replicate that temperature. which anyone can do at home.

Fresh or frozen pizzas from the supermarket are fine as long as they're not a regular thing [i.e. once a week or so]. Switching from chips to salad was a good idea, just don't soak it in dressing.

By the way, J20 probably has more sugar and calories than beer. You'd be better off with Diet Coke.

Once a week? I don't eat anything else aside from microwave/oven pizzas (2 a day, every day pretty much).

Am I going to drop dead? I've been doing this for about 6 months now.

I sometimes mix it up with some steak and a bowl of cereal.

Yes but it's not the traditional way is it, it's his way. Besides I've got a Clay oven anyhoo so I can do the traditional way at home.

The microwave ones I usually have are little round Chicago Town ones, pepperoni. :cool:

Oven pizzas are French baguette sized cheese & tomato. (Goodfellas)

I would imagine boredom will get you first, if not you will probably turn into a bit of a whale in time. Your insides will look something like domino's bin too.

I have always eaten loads, weigh in at around 8 stone and still a skinny ****.

Can't wait to go back to America, the amount of steak and other meals I consume over there is ridiculous. Gotta love $4 all you can eat breakfast. :/

High metabolism for the win, I also am fortunate enough to be like that

Your poor guts. I don't envy anyone near you when you fart.

If it hasn't already, then your skin will turn atrocious soon too.

Surely you can't think that's good for you? :confused:

Takes an awfully long time to make a pizza properly, not to mention all that gas/electricity, most people can't be bothered and end up buying one from supermarket

Takes about 8 minutes in an oven and 15 minutes to make. Just need to wait a couple of hourse for the base to rise.

I don't fart (oh how I hate that word), never in public and very, very, very rarely at any other time.

I never said it was good for me, I am however very picky in what I eat so change is hard.

That is a reason for not trusting you.

You like spam pizza, it can be seen in your posts.
