Pizza on the High Seas

My father has been one of my pizza-making students for many years. He is on a cruise and sent me this note. That’s the way to spread your passion for pizza, Dad!

Hi PizzaMan,

You can add a great footnote to your pizza fame; pizza from your book prepared aboard the Holland America ship ms Prinsendam on location at 62 deg. 36.09 min. South Lattitude and 95 deg. 44.84 min. West Longitude off Livingston Island, Antarctica. Our party of six enjoyed it immensely as we looked out at the frozen landscape of this amazing place. It was special in several ways, including the food.

The “pizza chef” did a pretty good job of making the peppers and feta recipe which I had jotted down on a note card. He didn’t have the garlic in the right form, but what he had came through in the taste.

The whole idea came from a table discussion after the couple from South Africa introduced me to smoked eel. Very mild taste and quite nice. We then decided that we each would introduce something from our home countries. The pizza was my contribution.

These two couples are the ones that we gave your books too. They all profess to try making some of the recipes when they get home.

Here is a picture from the ship on the day this pizza was made:
