Well, Yang thinks that flowers are superficial and would rather get me practical gifts. For this Valentine, he bought me an excellent Blu-ray documentary series \u2018Planet Earth\u2019. We enjoyed watching each and every episode of \u2018Planet Earth\u2019. Some of the animal behavior and natural forces and sceneries were an eye-opener for me. It is the best production on nature I\u2019ve seen so far.<\/p>\n
It is getting more and more challenging to think of a suitable gift to give Yang for Valentine or his birthday. I mean, Yang is really good and personal with his gifts. Tough to match up. So for this Valentine, I decided to hand-make a Hawaiian pizza for him. He\u2019s big on pizzas.<\/p>\n
After surfing the Internet for a proven recipes for the pizza crust and tomato sauce, I was eager to try it out on Valentine\u2019s Day. Wah, I found out that kneading the dough by hand was no joke man. I was practically doing a workout while at it. I\u2019ll be smarter next round – use my dough kneading mixer. On the whole, pizza making was an enjoyable experience for me. I get freshly-made pizza crust with home-made tomato sauce and personalised toppings. Yummito!<\/p>\n
The baking process is simple – just 15-20 mins in the oven\u2026and presto, your pizza is ready to be served ![\":)\"](\"https:\/\/chekyang.com\/musings\/wp-includes\/images\/smilies\/icon_smile.gif\"){kind=icon}
Initially, I wanted to shape the pizza into a heart-shape. But it would such a waste of space and food! (I\u2019m sure Yang would prefer more pizza than inedible romance). In my opinion, the pizza was a great success. Yeah, the juices from the pineapple pieces soaked part of the crust but the freshness of bread was unmistakable. The crust was crispy on the outside and soft-chewy on the inside. <\/p>\n
I would give myself full marks for the first attempt even though Yang rated the finished product only 60 percent.:(<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
