Meal No. 3945: Deep Dish Skillet Pepperoni Pizza

By Tuesday of last week, I at long last was able to pull off pizza, with our faithful and easy deep dish skillet approach as cleverly conceived of by culinary guru J. Kenji Lopez-Alt. The dough turned out especially hearty in flavor and terrific in chew (as the pie gods ordain!), the saved homemade sauce had just enough zing, the melted cheese lay about in a well-managed balance, and the pepperoni occupied their proper population density stations. Its goodness called for eating two or seven more slices but my more disciplined appetite exerted a moderating maintenance of rash desires.
