Discouraged

I'm going to a potluck tomorrow, and my initial plan was to make Sullivan Street Bakery's No-Knead Bread and Barbara Kingsolver's homemade mozzarella.

I think the bread turned out okay, but I horridly botched the cheese, pouring in the rennet when I should have poured in the citric acid.

Then I decided to take the protein-rich whey (due to the super crap amount of curds coming out of solution) and make ricotta. Was successful in making the ricotta, but then I over salted it.

So I decided to cook up some edamame and run those through the food processor, and fold them into the ricotta to balance out the sodium. Drizzle some olive oil and throw in some freshly ground black pepper. Which I did.

Except, even though I tasted a test edamame pod, the edamame were undercooked. So now I've got a huge thing of not too salty, undercooked edamame-homemade ricotta spread.

The only thing I can think of to do with that is to make pizza dough, smear the spread on top, pop it in the oven and hope the heat cooks the edamame the rest of the way through. But I'm tired, and there's no time to make a decent pizza dough before tomorrow, so I'm giving up now.

I guess I'll be the loser that shows up with bread.

P.S. Do you think the pizza would be good with some prosciutto and spinach? Ugh, what would really be good with that combo is some marscapone.
