ckreef Posted February 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 Pictures from last night's pizza cook. I made a double batch and divided into 3 balls which made proper sized pizzas. I used 00 flour with 4 tsp Vital Wheat Gluten instead of King Arthur AP flour. The first 2 I used parchment paper. For mine I built it straight on a wooden peel sprinkled with Semolina. Hawke's pizza was Shiitake mushrooms and anchovies. Mrs skreef's pizza was Italian sausage and green peppers. Mine was sliced tomatoes, Shiitake mushrooms, Bulgarian Feta (a strange, very strong and moist feta) and fresh Basil. They came out decent. The crust definitely had a softer inside. But compared to using King Arthur AP flour: Didn't stretch as well, Took longer to brown, Didn't have as airy of a crust. (oven spring) I know there are many factors that are in play effecting the outcome and only one test run of the 2 different doughs is hardly enough to come to any serious conclusions. Next batch will go back to King Arthur AP flour and see if my conclusions seem valid. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckreef Posted February 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 Even if things don't always turn out as we hoped they some how always taste great.They tasted good just not top of the game for me. Family thought they were great. Of course this is after working a very long 14 hour day and we didn't eat until about 10:00 pm.
