Porcini flavoured flatbread dough! Yes this is happening.Since we haven’t the slightest knowledge to making dough, we sourced out a recipe.’The New Rules’ by Milk Street has a great flatbread pizza dough recipe that we tweaked by adding Big Cove Foods spices, and a bit more flour because our dough turned out a bit too wet. If you haven’t welcomed this cookbook into your home yet … you should! Their techniques and flavour profiles are very inspiring. We topped our pizza with simple ingredients: tomato paste for sauce, black olives, gouda cheese and smoked ham that we had still frozen from that time we cooked a large ham for 8 people and still had it coming out our eye balls.
Porcini Flatbread Pizza
EntreePorcini BBQ Genie
Ingredients
- 250 g bread flour
- 1 ½ tsp instant yeast
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tbsp Big Cove Foods ‘Porcini BBQ Genie’ spice blend
- ¾ cup whole milk yogurt
- 1 tbsp honey
Directions
- In a food processor, combine flour, yeast, salt and ‘Porcini BBQ Genie’ and process until combined, 5 seconds. Add yogurt, honey and 1/4 cup water. Process until the mixture forms a ball, about 30 seconds. It should be tacky to touch and slightly sticking to sides. Feel out your dough: if it’s too wet, add a little bit of flour at a time. If too dry, add a splash of water a little bit at a time.
- Remove the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead a few times. Split the dough in half and roll each half into a ball. Keeping at least 6″ distance, place the 2 balls on the table and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise for 1 – 1.5 hours, until doubled in size.
- Was recommended to heat a pizza stone in the oven at 500°F for an hour before cooking – we do not have a pizza stone, nor anything to slide the pizza off of and onto the very hot pizza stone. Our variation, that worked well but I am sure not as fabulous as a pizza stone, is to just make it on a baking sheet and place in oven.
- Gently stretch each ball on lightly floured counter into an oval shape, about 6″ wide and 12″ long. Place on baking sheet and add your toppings. Bake roughly 9-11 minutes.

I wasn't sure what to do with this...
I got one jar of this, and didn't know what to do with it. It was Taco Tuesday, so I decided to try to miss it while making the beef.
I would have to say that it ended up working, and I found my tacos were enhanced.

Big Cove Made It To The Caribbean!!!
My cousin and her husband came to visit me in Dominica West Indies. They brought along Egyptian summer and hot jerk spices from.Big Cove Foods!!! The taste sensation just blew my mind. I made a stirfry of chicken with vegetables using the Egyptian summer. The flavor was sensational. I used the hot jerk on some locally caught fresh mahi-mahi. It was absolutely extraordinary. I have a friend who’s coming to visit me in August and I’m hoping that she will be able to bring me a few of the others as well. I am hooked line and sinker. All the best with your business. I highly recommend these spices.. 💕

Great hostess gifts!
These little boxes of spice varieties are great! I’m taking them to Ontario this week and will use them as the perfect little ‘hostess gifts’ I use Big Cove spices all the time. ‘Mary had a’ is my favourite. I use it on everything! (I don’t even like lamb so I definitely don’t just use it for that, lol!)

Flavourful Blend
I repurchased this tasty blend when it was available again. I would say it's a medium heat so it's a nice option to have. We also enjoy the Ghost Taco blend but use it sparingly for that extra kick!

Found in Baddeck. Making Food taste great in Toronto
Travelled to Cape Breton ( Baddeck, where I was born and raised ) a couple of years ago and found these amazing spices. Been ordering ever since. Shipping to Toronto covered for an order big enough ( which we do ). Pick it up at the One of a Kind Show when we can. Use on meats and roasted veggies.

Happy It’s Back!!
We missed this blend. It’s been a staple in our house for a number of years. Use it in stirfys and on pork.

This spice blend is excellent!
Purchased at the OOAK show in TO. Love this blend and made the chicken/rice dish on the site. Making it on repeat!

Best Taco Blend!
My second time purchasing Ghost Taco and it’s unreal. Perfect amount of spice and no fillers like starch that a lot of other blends have. Great on chicken and beef.
On top of that my package got stuck with the Canada Post Strike and when they learned I was still waiting they sent me a brand new package through a different shipper. Amazing customer service guys, thanks!

Hard to pick just one
What I love about these spices is that they may come individually packaged, but I still turn on a bit more wild, by mixing one package with another. Have you tried Taco Enhancer with Red Rub? Amazing
