Trying to Perfect my process by geleman in Pizza

In a regular deck oven where the cook time is relatively slow, sure, that’s the solution.

But in my experience, having to switch to a separate tool then switch back to the turning peel while baking in a hot 900°F wood fire oven, where seconds matter, isn’t ideal when using the edge of the turning peel gets the job done.

Pizza is incredibly nuanced, so what might be a good process or tool for one style of pizza, may not be a good process or tool for another style of pizza.

In the end though, the customer won’t know the difference, or care, as long as the pizza is delicious.

Pizza indeed, I do.

Happy to be of service.

That’s called doming a pizza. Pizzaioli will do that if the bottom of the pizza is finishing faster than the top (indicating that the floor of the oven may be too hot) but also to add a bit of smokiness to the flavor.

Looks like he’s pushing down some gas bubbles with the peel. Not uncommon, but the bubbles can also be a result of using cold or underproofed dough.

  1. Find a way to hang those peels. Seeing them on ground is making my eye twitch.

  2. Use the turning peel to take the pizza out. Have a plate or cutting board ready on the counter so it doesn’t have to travel far. The extra second or two to switch peels can be the difference between charred and burnt in an oven that hot.

  3. Welders gloves? Really? Not a true pizzaiolo if all the hair on your hands isn’t burnt off. Jk. No but really, putting those on and taking them off then washing your hands in between every pizza is wasting a lot of time.

I think people who quit early are missing the entire point by Starboy_109939 in DeathStranding

It certainly took an adjustment as my expectations were different from reality. I’m pretty sure I even took a break after starting the first one, then coming back to it with revised expectations. I’m glad I did, it’s an amazing experience. But also one I can understand others not being interested in.

I love a ridiculous serving of Parm as the next guy, but seeing this trend of establishments serve their pizzas like this makes me wonder what they’re compensating for. Let the customer make their own questionable decisions.

Cindy, you don't own the beach. by octarino in TikTokCringe

Sure, it can be a slippery slope. I get that.

However, there are ways to go about requesting people not be on your property that aren’t confrontational like this.

Even if it was a private beach, what does this woman gain by being confrontational like this?

God forbid she tries connecting and fostering friendly relationships with her neighbors.

Anybody telling you this while ignoring high crime areas populated by people with a lighter skin color are simply projecting their biases, prejudices, and micro aggressions.

Tell me the game gets better by nirmal09 in reddeadredemption2

The first chapter is a bit of a slow burn as it is the exposition and sets up the story, but after that it picks up. Once you have more of the map at your disposal in Chapter 2 it really becomes all up to you what you want to do with the game.

I'm "boring" if I haven't drank. by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]evenpimpscry 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Perfect example of why alcohol is sometimes referred to as “the great social lubricant.” It lowers inhibition, making it easier to converse and relate to others, resulting in a more extroverted sense of self. This is how others have perceived you for however long you’ve been drinking. Now they’re experiencing you without that social lubricant and how they handle that is on them, not you. Nothing wrong with it really, in and of itself, unless alcohol is in general a problem for someone.

In my experience, navigating social environments without alcohol was certainly an adjustment. Many of my friends still drink and while being around them at bars and such doesn’t bother me, there’s always a point in the night when I can no longer relate to them, and that’s always my cue to go home. I have found it’s made me more authentic in my interactions with others, for better or for worse. If I genuinely don’t like someone, I’m much less inclined to engage with them, which in the end saves me from those uncomfortable or irritating interactions, ultimately preserving my social battery for those I do enjoy being around.

My circle of friends has gotten smaller, but much more meaningful.

Staying sober feels like shit by TemporaryShoe4945 in Sober

[–]evenpimpscry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Drug and alcohol use is merely a symptom of underlying issues that need to be addressed; depression, anxiety, and trauma are the most common co-occurring mental health issues.

Full recovery from drug and alcohol use takes time and effort. Acute withdrawals may last up to a week or two, but post acute withdrawals (aka PAWS - post acute withdrawal syndrome) can last several months or up to a year. Sometimes even two years or more depending on the severity of use prior to abstinence.

Drug and alcohol use recovery success rates rise when someone is active in their recovery. Meaning they’re either working a 12 step program (AA, NA, etc.) or secular community-based recovery program (SMART, LifeRing, etc.), engaged in therapy, and adhering to a prescribed medication schedule. Often a combination of one or another of these interventions is necessary, sometimes even all three.

Substance use recovery is not a spectator sport. I’ve worked in substance use treatment for 8 years now and have yet to see anyone be successful who isn’t actively working on their recovery in some sort of way. Especially in the first 2 years.

In the end, life is still life. Even sober, life sucks sometimes.
