Mollie's Cracker Crust Pizza & Topping

CRACKER CRUST PIZZA

makes 4 crusts

750 g water

2 T. olive oil

440 g CBF baking mix (.05) = 22 mg phe

600 g Wel-Plan baking mix (.02) = 12 mg phe

80 g Metamucil

20 g salt

35 g baking powder

1 T. pizza seasoning

Put wet ingredients in bowl of KitchenAid mixer with dough hook attached. Mix dry ingredients separately, and add to bowl until all dry ingredients are incorporated. This dough is very thick and somewhat sticky.

Preheat oven to 350° F. Spray each of four 14 inch pizza pans – and your hands – with non-stick cooking spray and divide dough into 4 balls (475-485 g dough each). Flatten each dough ball on its pizza pan with hands, and flip flattened dough to coat with non-stick cooking spray. Roll dough to edges of pan using a rolling pin; finish edges with hands. Dock the pizza crust with a dough docker (or prick thoroughly with a fork) to prevent large air bubbles from forming. Bake two crusts at a time in a 350° F oven for 16 minutes total, switching the crusts halfway through cooking time for even cooking. If eating immediately, dress the crust with your choice of toppings and bake until toppings are warm. If saving for later, shortly after removing the crusts from the oven, remove from pan to cooling rack to prevent bottom of crust from getting soggy. After crust is cooler, you can put it back on the pan to freeze, or dress with toppings then freeze. Total phe for recipe AS WRITTEN is 34/4 = 8.5 mg phe per crust (1 mg phe per slice)

MARGARITA TOPPING

1 lg. can petite diced tomatoes, well drained & squeezed (~285 g) (.13 mg phe/g) = 37

1 t. chopped garlic (5 g)(1.67) = 8

½ t. dried basil

goodly sprinkle of salt

Mix ingredients together. Use about 100 g margarita topping per pizza crust.

Total phe for topping recipe is 45 mg, or .15 mg/g (15 mg phe/100 g). We use the topping over 75 g pizza sauce and top with 50 g Cambrooke mozzarella cheese shreds.

Vegetarian Fish Sauce

Ingredients:

1 Tablespoon Soy Sauce (see Soy Sauce Substitute recipe, listed under sauces)

3 Tablespoons mirin ( see notes)

1 Tablespoon water

Juice of 1/2 lime

1 clove garlic, minced very fine

Pinch crushed red pepper flakes

Directions:Simply combine the ingredients.

Notes:
Makes an excellent flavoring base for stir-fry
The mirin is soy-based so it has phe. Substitute same amount of sweet sherry or the same amount or dry sherry plus 1 tsp sugar to reduce PHE.
This did not store well in the refrigerator. Lost taste over time.

Soy Sauce Substitute

Ingredients:
4 Tablespoons Beef bouillon ( see notes)
4 tsp balsamic vinegar
2tsp dark molasses
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1 pinch white pepper
1 pinch garlic powder
1 1/2 cups water
Directions:In a saucepan over medium heat, stir together all if the ingredients. Boil gently until liquid is reduced to about 1 cup.
Notes:
Stores well in glass container in the refrigerator.
Beef Bouillon can be replaced with a comparable amount of George Washington's Rich Brown Seasoning to reduce the PHE. About 8 packets, which is a full box.
