Lookin good. I’ve been trying out some Chicago tavern style pizzas after seeing videos by Brian Lagerstrom and America’s test kitchen. The crust isn’t too difficult since it’s rolled out.Did the different this week. I give you... 5-cheese pizza! (My own) garlic white sauce, fresh shredded provolone, fresh shredded smoked cheddar (smoked with wood and apple), fresh goat cheese mozzarella, fresh grated parmesan and asiago, sauteed arbol peppers, olive oil, lemon zest and fresh basil. Yummy!
Garlic white sauce: In a sauce pan, whisk 1 tbs of butter and 1 tbs of flour over medium heat. Next add 1/2 cup of cold milk. When it starts to simmer, add 1-3 cloves of fresh garlic, 1/8 tsp salt, 1/4 cup fresh grated Parmesan, and a pinch of both pepper and nutmeg.
How do you make this garlic butter spread?I have been doing deep dish in a cast iron dish. Comes out SOOOOO good.
I use pretty much any raw pizza crust but I line my cast iron dish with a garlic butter spread first...

I didn't know if you had an actual measurement or what. 👍I probably made it sound more fancy than it is!
I just melt up better and add garlic salt to taste. Super easy but it makes a difference.

Made a new batch of tomato sauce on Wednesday using fresh garlic on the suggestion of someone. Got a really good rise today out of my dough. Had to pop a few huge bubbles. I was only able to eat two slices today. But it was sooo good!
