Jammin' Pizza

So, I have a small collection of homemade jams/jellies right now, since I did a bunch of canning when I was back in Maryland for Thanksgiving Break. My love of canning is another reason why New York City and I are probably not meant for a lifetime commitment. Anyway, I made Pomegranate, a recipe I have tried before, to great success, and a new recipe for Apricot Pepper Jelly.

Apricot Pepper Jelly is the most delicious thing I have ever made with my own two hands and, as a result, I want to eat it on EVERYTHING. The latest discovery? Jam Pizza.

Recipe for Jam Pizza is as follows:

- Get some pizza crust like substance. Various forms of pita or flatbread will suffice.
- Lightly coat with olive oil. Broil...or, whatever you do with pizza. I broil.
- Spread Apricot Pepper Jelly on crust. There is no such thing as too much jam on this pizza, but you don't want to run out like some people (me), so use sparingly.
- Spread pizza sauce on top of Jelly. Favorite sauce thus far is a Spicy Tomato Basil by Classico.
- Add toppings. Any will do. I have tried: red peppers, meatless crumbles, and chickpeas.
- Sprinkle cheese on top. Main coat of cheese should be a general pizza cheese: italian mix or just mozzarella. Then sprinkle some gouda on for extra deliciousness.
- Sprinkle pizza with cinnamon and paprika. Broil until it looks done.

I am assuming other jams can be used as well, or there would be little point in my sharing this (rather imprecise) recipe.


In other news:
- On the paper writing front: I look like I am surrounded by the remnants of a book tornado. I cannot wait to be done this paper, and yet I want time to stretch out, giving me as many minutes as possible to complete my task.
- On strange, paperwriting malaise: I have cried twice today already. Once because I caught the last five minutes of Life is Beautiful during my lunch break. Once because of something I read in The Amber Spyglass during another break. While this may sound like I spend most of my day taking breaks and crying, I assure you this is not true.
