People eating grasshoppers are worried about where they're sourced?

Grasshoppers on pizza? New menu item at Las Vegas pizzeria is taking the world by swarm

LAS VEGAS – In the kitchen of a Las Vegas pizzeria, there’s a new ingredient landing atop New York-style slices.

And you might call it chicken of the desert: grasshoppers.

“The Canyon Hopper” pizza at Evel Pie hit the menu this week after a biblical-level migration of pallid-winged grasshoppers swarmed Sin City’s neon lights and sidewalks – an invasion so thick it looked like a storm on weather radar.

"It's hit the world by swarm," Branden Powers, Evel Pie's managing partner and creator, told the USA TODAY Network.

If you stop into the parlor at 508 Fremont St. in downtown Las Vegas, a slice will cost $5.50. But supplies are selling out fast.

...

Where did the grasshopper toppings come from?

“Everybody’s worried we’re taking a shovel outside,” Powers said.

He actually ordered them on Amazon Prime. They arrived in bags from Oaxaca, a Mexican city known for grasshoppers – or “chapulines.”

...

The endeavor started with a few 4-ounce bags of bugs. But soon after the Canyon Hopper hit the menu, the kitchen ran out of grasshoppers.

“We had to scramble and go all around the city. Went to Ethiopian markets, Thai markets,” Powers said. “Eighty percent of the planet eats insects, except us. We eat a couple pounds a year, and we don’t know it.”

In June 2016, I requested a recipe for an easy thin crust dough recipe. OP was gracious enough to share with me. We made it the other day. It is truly best after a few days of resting. It was absolutely fantastic! Here it is:

1000grams flour ('pastry flour', in the US. Not all purpose flour)
650grams/ml water, cool/not cold but certainly not warm!
20grams salt
A little bit of yeast, you don't need much. Couple grams. As little as 5g/kg of flour is fine.

First mix all of the water with about 1/3 of the flour and the yeast. Mix it a bit, let it stand for 15-20mins. Nice bubbles should form. Add the rest of the flour and use a spoon or something to mix it until it's less sticky. Then you knead it by hand until it's a ball. Add the salt to your workspace and further knead the dough while incorporating the salt. It should 'sweat' a bit or feel as if it's becoming more moist after you add the salt, then it should turn into an elastic dough. Once it's elastic and smooth enough. You let it rest. I've got a granite counter-top so I simply leave it on there with a damp towel on top.

Then after about an hour, you divide the dough into individual dough balls. I generally make 6 small pizzas out of this recipe or 4 larger ones. Now you could use the dough after resting it for about another hour. I prefer to make the dough in advance and then put my dough-balls on a plastic cutting-board with a moist towel/cloth on top of it in the fridge for 24hrs. This really develops the taste in the dough.

Never add oil, never add sugar. There's no need for it. Oil will make it more biscuit like.

Keep it simple and let it rest. It tastes best on day 3. It starts to become something like a sourdough.

I was thinking about pizza tonight , but , Nah going to go with fried shrimp and onion rings .

How about pizza with shrimps and onion rings?

I had pizza last night . It was a thick crust though and the crust sucked . I ate two pc.'s anyway .

Nice. I guess I can eat two pizzas at time too. By the way, what pizza did you have? I think the crust could be a bit raw and the issue could be with oven. Check this article, some ovens can heat up just for 3750 F max which may be not enough for some recipes.

What in sam hill is going on here luctor? You still haven't finished this!?

I think we're all owed two pizzas each at this point for having to wait this long after all of the moral and keyboard support we've given you.

2018...........

Well, it's not like you have much of a choice since it certainly won't be one of luctor's pizzas.

Damn, now I'm craving a pizza.

Mr A says my pizzas aren't really pizza because I take a spinach tortilla and top it with red pesto, spinach, onions, red peppers, artichoke hearts, spicy pickled brussel sprouts (my latest obsession), red pepper flakes, garlic, basil, and oregano. Delish. Mr A says he's being generous when he calls it a flatbread but it's not pizza. I call it pizza just to annoy him. I cook it in the Nuwave for 8 minutes - that's how long it takes me to pee, wash my face, give Brian Setzer lovins, and change into my jammies after I get home from work. No pizza oven required.

So, you guys probably won't believe me, but I spent some time working on the oven last weekend. Actually made quite good progress (finishing some open ends/headaches that needed resolving) after not touching anything for a long time. Determined to get it completed this spring. More to come, stay tuned.

Also, I've noticed the pictures are offline. I don't think I'll put them back in the posts but I think I will re-upload them at some point in some form for those that are interested.
