Description
So I didn't make it, this year I just didn't have time (ever notice that when it comes to school, every really big assignment tends to be due within a four day period?) so I bought this one at the Cheese Boutique... if you're in or around Toronto, like food at all, and haven't been, you must go. Probably one of my favorite places in the city.It's called a Chocolate Dumas... and it's pretty much a hazlenut and chocolate lover's dream. Yum!

the yeast proofed properly? looked like strange beige vomit in a container? and warm stuff helps it rise faster

I just tasted it, though, and I've gotta say... I do find it tasty, even though it looks super strange!

heh. so. Before I started, I told myself I'd post a picture of it. But now that I'm done and have a mildly pizza-like mass of [theoretically] edible things, I think I'll have to make at least one more (for practice) before I show you any pictures
Yep. Well, not sure how vomity the yeast looked. It looked like a layer of vomit on top of some water? And I think I did that kneading business for too long (forgot to check the time and eventually just kinda did what I thought might just be 10 min. 
Greek foods! That stuff is some tasty business

lol, you can't really knead it for too long by hand... it should have gotten smooth and hard to knead by the end, yes? the watery business is indeed the lack of seed removal, it should be kind of the same texture as a slushy
and i'm glad you enjoyed it, what'd you stick on it?

just onions to be honest 
haha, yeeeah, when I noticed how watery the tomatoes came out I thought "whoops! did I skip somethin? oh. dammit. i did. and i'm not headin' back to the store for tomatoes." So I just kinda tried to pour it onto the dough and make sure it didn't leak off
And to be honest, I didn't really notice the difference in texture in the dough when I was kneading. But that might just be my n00b-ness hahaha

eventually it stops being super sticky and gets smooth, kinda like clay or play dough or something
