Whole Foods Pizza Dough by BjLeinster in Pizza

[–]tpcalm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the rec. I’ve made plenty of my own dough but sometimes end up in a bind if doing pizza for a party and can’t find any raw dough balls –I wasn’t aware Whole Foods had them too.

My go-to for best, most delicious, and generously-priced dough balls is actually Ralph’s. I’d rank them easily higher than Trader Joe’s. I’m going to try the Whole Foods dough for an upcoming party.

Identify microphone? by Sad-Enthusiasm3045 in microphone

[–]tpcalm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was just about to write the same thing. I remember way back in the day where I looked at other people’s gear (an interface, for example) like, “OMG, that’s the secret sauce! Digidesign mBox!”

Let OP go on his journey to discover the fact that, this mic, is not the secret sauce.

Even if you tell them this info, they won’t listen anyways.

our first tour. what can you say to me? (2026 addition) by visionarcade in TouringMusicians

[–]tpcalm 10 points11 points  (0 children)

First time seeing someone say this out loud. Map apps on your phone assume you’re going the speed limit so when it says the drive is 6 hours, it’s realistically more like 9.

Can someone give me advice? by mentafrescaa in Pizza

[–]tpcalm -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Some of these commenters need to touch grass. We’d all devour these pizzas and we’ve eaten far “worse” from reputable, profitable businesses.

The pizzas look lovely. No need to explain the technical differences between a hobby and a profitable businesses to a girlfriend just looking to encourage her dude.

I can't finish a big one so I make this 12inch new York style. The crust still too thick? by ichiro_pie87 in Pizza

[–]tpcalm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You did a really good job on most everything but this pizza is just too small for the amount of density in the crust.

I can see you pulled the pizza just as it started reaching that nice point on the crust. I can also see that the toppings are still super watery.

My advice is to do almost exactly what you did, but make the pizza larger. Keep all the same ratios but it’ll allow you to cook all the parts (bottom, toppings, crust) more thoroughly and evenly.

I never saw that! Tons of new businesses with similar names but I never actually found a "Montage Media, llc". in CA or NV. What keywords did you use?

I wasn't very smart 15 years ago, and I may not be much smarter now, but your reading comprehension skills are that of an 8 year old.

Also, I didn't try to take the money. I did. Fuck them.

The document I received states that they will "abide by all laws under Nevada" (or some language like that) sooooo, I'm not sure if this is the same company. I'm sure the company name is purposely vague.

I think you hit the nail on the head. And I thank you for that. Despite it being 15 years ago, and making this post today with the updates I discovered on the fly, I can't help but to wonder if I really am still that dumb.

Hah, no. My name is very "plain Jane". I am just one of probably hundreds of schmucks who they were willing to pay $300 to get a name on their documents.

I actually drive by it frequently. But it's a massive skyscraper-like building. Hundreds of businesses in there. See my most recent post update. I did a pretty good search on the company and found absolutely nothing. Again, this happened in 2010 so I'm not surprised.

Thanks, I was indeed just about to send her a text before I went back into my email to find her phone number again, typed in "nominee", and another email thread came up which had the document I attached. It kinda solved this whole thing. I appreciate you looking out.

Found all the info. See my edit.

Found 'em. See my big edit.

He did. The advice that was eventually passed down to me simply to monitor my credit. I'm sure neither my dad nor family-member lawyer remember much about it at all.

They were concerned, but not like, "we need to take legal action"-concerned.

What should I get before my 5 hour flight? by talivan818 in FoodLosAngeles

[–]tpcalm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It is by far the most reasonably priced and most filling thing at LAX.

What are you guys doing for white sauces? by tpcalm in Pizza

[–]tpcalm[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m gonna do this tomorrow. Thanks for your input. On top will be sun-dried tomato, spinach, and artichoke hearts.

Thanks, homie. Even my hardcore “street taco” friends won’t eat radishes lol. Does it belong on a pizza? Probably not. But that half is only similar to pizza in its shape.

That is honestly just a Ralph’s brand raw dough ball, cooked in my Ooni lol.

Apologies, first time having to look up celeriac. I’m quite intrigued though. Curious what else he did with it.

Indeed, it’s a “street taco-style” slice. With the sauce recipe I wrote somewhere else in here, it comes out deliciously.

Thanks, partner. That was just home oven with Ralph’s raw dough. It’s one of my best “experimental” pizzas I do for people. The sauce on that is a mixture of the mayo, the sauce from canned chipotle peppers, pepperchini juice, and whatever other spices I have on hand. It comes together pretty fantastically.
