$1.50 how? Is he having a sliced tomato on cardboard?

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

Yeah seriously; I made pizza at home once, and the basic ingredients ended up costing more than getting pizza for takeout. So even though it was fun, I never attempted it again.

[-] maltasoron@sopuli.xyz 14 points 2 weeks ago

Well, they got to ship them from Italy to the US, so that makes sense

Decide on a whim to make za at home
welp, see you in 4 days

[-] Tja@programming.dev 6 points 2 weeks ago

Pizza at home is a whole hobby by itself, not a dinner choice.

I do it from time to time, but if factor my time, each pizza ends up costing like 20 euros, and I don't even have any fancy equipment to amortize...

Much more efficient to do an hour of overtime and order from a local Italian restaurant, if all you want is to eat a good pizza.

[-] Eyekaytee@aussie.zone 12 points 2 weeks ago

Yup I also ended up migrating to the restaurants/cafe's own apps for pickup

I might have 47 food related apps on my phone now but beats a fuggin 30% charge to the restaurant

[-] binarytobis@lemmy.world 13 points 2 weeks ago

I went through a local boba place’s website to order for a few months. Would order, walk there, and it would be ready right as I arrived, all very neat.

Then I found out my $9 order was $5 for a drink and $4 for door dash, who apparently runs the site? I don’t want to contribute to door dash becoming ticketmaster, but restaurants opt-in to that shit willingly.

Now I’m paying half price in person and wasting 5-10 minutes each time. Can’t win.

[-] brotundspiele@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 weeks ago

Maybe just call them, like in the good old days?

Making own pizza is the way to go for sure, especially when there are like taco leftovers or something. Yummy!

[-] LainTrain@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 2 weeks ago

It takes a pretty long time though. I eat pizza first and foremost because it's fast

[-] bumblefumble@mander.xyz 7 points 2 weeks ago

Takes a long time for the dough to rise, but at least where I love you can by premade dough if you wanna sacrifice some quality for a faster process. And then it's like a 20 min job.

[-] k0e3@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 weeks ago

I love you too.

Did you know that if you spend $70 on ingredients and 4 hours in the kitchen you can make a burger that is superior to anything at McDonalds or Burger King? Follow me for more lifestyle tips!

Literally inspired me to make homemade pizza tomorrow

[-] TheMightyCanuck@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 weeks ago

Frozen pizzas are like 10$ in northern Canada..

That being said, pepperoni is prohibitivly expensive for homemade pizza

Why even make pizza? What is it really? Bread, cheese, toppings, and tomato sauce. I can knock that down to $0.25 or less per pizza.

Take a slice of bread, spread with tomato sauce, top with cheese and toppings, then broil until toppings melt. Want a calzone? Add a second piece of bread on top of the end, broil until toasted.

Boom. Pizza.

.../s ?

I wish I could make a pizza at home for $1.50. For $1.50, I can make the crust. No sauce, no cheese, no toppings.

"Hey, Jimmy, gimme a pie with nothin'!"

"Nothin'?"

It is still cheaper to buy everything for a pepperoni or cheese pizza to make at home than even a Little Ceasars pizza, tho. Can make a bigger pizza, too.

Cost of store brand premade pizza: $6-8, 15 minutes cook time, versus Cost of homemade pizza:

$2.00 for half block of store brand mozzarella cheese (Pre-shredded cheese has additives in it to keep it from clumping.) 1/2 onion - $0.50 2 cloves garlic $0.25 4 ounces tomato paste $0.50 Dry basil, oregano, bay leaf, parsley, paprika $0.10 2 cups flour $0.30 Packet of yeast $0.30

Total cost of ingredients: $4.45 Ingredient wise, I’m saving $1 - 4.

The real cost is time. Prep time/clean time: Making dough, chopping veg, making sauce, shredding cheese, bake time, and washing dishes, is 2.5 hours (My hourly wage is $28) so that’s a $70 cost in terms of time. That cost will be variable depending on a person’s hourly wage. Looks like premade, frozen, store brand gets you the best bang for the buck.

We have a pizza stone, clay stone you preheat… we don’t make a lot of homemade pizza but we have pizza parties every now and again… cost more than 1 per pizza though but when everybody makes it together it’s fun…. You get one or two really good pizzas and then one or two really awful pizzas though unless you use a consistent recipe if you’re making homemade dough you need to do it the day before…. There are some good instant dough recipes though but day before doughs are always better generally
