Uno’s Deep Pan Pizza – We Love God!

We are not encouraged to forsake our sin by having our senses amused or our preferences coddled. The Gospel is inherently and irreducibly confrontational. It cuts against our perceived righteousness and self-sufficiency, demanding that we forsake cherished sin and trust in someone else to justify us. Entertainment is therefore a problematic medium for communicating the Gospel, because it nearly always obscures the most difficult aspects of it – the cost of repentance, the cross of discipleship, the narrowness of the Way. Some will disagree, arguing that drama can give unbelievers a helpful visual image of the Gospel. But we have already been given such visual images. They are the ordinances of baptism and the Lord’s Supper and the transformed lives of our Christian brothers and sisters (Mark Dever and Paul Alexander).

INSTRUCTIONS

Pour the warm water into a large mixing bowl and dissolve the yeast
with a fork. Add 1 cup of flour, all of the cornmeal, salt, and, and
vegetable oil. Mix well with a spoon. Continue stirring in the rest  of
the flour 1/2 cup at a time, until the dough comes away from the  sides
of the bowl. Flour your hands and the work surface and kneed  the ball
of dough until it is no longer sticky.  Let the dough rise in an oiled
bowl, sealed with plastic wrap, for 45  to 60 minutes in a warm place,
until it is doubled in bulk. Punch it  down and kneed it briefly. Press
it into an oiled 15-inch deep dish  pizza pan, until it comes 2 inches
up the sides and is even on the  bottom of the pan. Let the dough rise
15-20 minutes before filling.  Preheat the oven to 500 degrees.  While
the dough is rising, prepare the filling. Cook the crumbled  sausage
until it is no longer pink, drain it of it's excess fat.  Drain and
chop the tomatos.  When the dough has finished its second rising, lay
the cheese over the  dough shell. Then distribute the sausage and
garlic over the cheese.  Top with the tomatos. Sprinkle on the
seasonings and Parmesan cheese.  Bake for 15 minutes at 500 degrees.
Then lower the temperature to 400  degrees and bake for 25 to 35
minutes longer. Lift up a section of the  crust from time to time with
a spatula to check on its color. The  crust will be golden brown when
done. Serve immediately.  From Gemini's MASSIVE MealMaster collection
