Buffalo Garlic Ranch Pizza Rsc


Ready, set, cook! Hidden valley contest entry. This has a tangy sauce which melds well with all flavor aspects of the pizza. Commercially made buffalo chicken pizzas turn me off, falling way short of my expectations. I feel that making a buffalo chicken pizza is a tricky bit, since the flavors have to go together like interlocking pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, and you just cannot force a piece into a place it was not meant to go. The flavors in this pizza, do go together extremely well, and only serve to lift each other higher than they would be alone. The whole thing reads like a romance novel, but it is really not that hard and the steps come together very quickly. And it is so much better than delivery.

Steps
