Hasta La Gadget!

Pizza with pasta toppings. Pizza infused with lasagna in the middle. Pizza with burgers baked into the crust. Those are just some of the interesting pizza creations people all over the world have come up with.

Another one to add to the list is the Ramen Crust Pizza.

As its name suggests, this delicious pie was made with a crispy ramen crust. That’s right, you won’t find any dough here. The pizza was thought up by J. Kenji Lopez-Alt. The recipe is surprisingly simple and easy to follow: cook instant noodles, simmer the cooked noodles in hot olive oil, add toppings, and bake. Sounds delicious.

You can find the recipe here, in case you’re interested in making your own Ramen Pizza for dinner. Or if you’d rather not go through the trouble, it’s only a matter of time before Pizza Hut starts making these, I’m sure.

Like millions of you out there, I’m stoked for the Season 3.2 return of The Walking Dead tonight. In honor of the occasion, our friends over at KitchenOverlord have put together a little recipe you can throw together, even while the zombie horde descends on your camp.

This Dandelion Green and Walnut Pesto can be easily assembled from items foraged in Georgia – with the exception of maybe the lemon. And there is that little part about needing a blender and electricity… Oh well, maybe it’s impractical after the zombies attack, but at least you can make some for tonight and toss it with some pasta. I’d go with red colored pasta so it looks like guts, of course.

I’ve always been somewhat perplexed by users having more than one tablet. Still, I have to say that a smaller tablet, perhaps an inch or two smaller than the iPad Mini, could be handy to tote around daily. The oddly-spelled Qooq tablet doesn’t fit that particular bill, instead being designed specifically for kitchen use.

Made in France, the Qooq tablet was designed for cooks, so it’s splash-proof, heat and humidity resistant, and has a retractable support that serves as a stand. If you use it with greasy hands, don’t worry, because the grease can be easily cleaned off with a damp cloth. It’s got a 10.1-inch screen, an ARM Cortex A9 processor, 8GB of memory, built-in Wi-Fi, and a customized interface that has a meal planner, browser, and built-in virtual cookbook. It can also be used for surfing the Internet, viewing videos or images and listening to music.

This all sounds pretty cool. However, I’m sure that anyone with an inexpensive tablet could duplicate these functions with a waterproof case and the right cooking apps, which will probably add up to less than the Qooq’s $399(USD) retail price. But if you’re looking for a stylish gadget, dedicated to kitchen use, you should definitely check out the Qooq.
