The Home-made Pizza thread
Used some left over chicken drowned in Franks Hot Sauce and a much too expensive local bleu cheese fir tonight’s pies.
No pics though since Mrs P bought the dough from Portland Pie Co so it felt a little like cheating. Although I have to admit that beyond having a bit too much dough per pie, they were delicious.

500g flour 00, I use Antimo Caputo
330g h2o, reserve a little to mix yeast/starter
15g salt
2.5g yeast
75g starter (fed the night before, if you don’t have starter just omit this from the recipe)
Yield: 3 portions
Autolyse flour and h2o 1hr, mix until shaggy mass
Mix yeast/starter with reserved h2o 75F-80F/feels lukewarm, add to flour shag and mix thoroughly.
I mix by hand, this takes 10-15min. Halfway thru mix add salt and continue kneading until you don’t feel the salt and the dough has good elasticity and strength.
Proof in covered bowl on counter until doubled in size then put in your fridge 48hrs bulk ferment.
Portion dough balls after bulk ferment, let
sit out what you’ll use that day under a floured kitchen towel for 4-5hrs until they’re room temp and have proofed again a little. Roll out and bake in preheated oven 550F 8-10 min
Longer fermenting stage helps develops strong elastic dough structure in the glutens that gets you tall crisp crust with air pockets but isn’t too chewy or soft.
I bake on a pizza stone in an electric oven and preheat the oven for 30-40 min before baking.
I also like to par bake the crusts with sauce, cool them down, add toppings and package them up. They freeze great!

Also been working on the cast iron deep dish thing. Very tasty but maybe not fully cooked through, just a tad dough’y.
15 minutes in the oven at 550 and middle rack. Bottom has a crust to it and I hit the top on high broil for a couple minutes. Maybe need to try a lower temp?
I’m using my normal dough recipe and a 600g ball.
