Cross-posting from the cooked last night thread. 14" pan pizza, messing around with my 50mm lens.

Bottom:



Could have used more grease on the bottom to really give that finger-lickin' goodness, but it was drat tasty.

Cross-posting from the dinner thread. The baking steal + broiler seems to be working pretty well for me and I have stopped using the low moisture cover-your-whole-pizza-with-shredded-cheese in favor of the lighter fresh mozzarella in pockets.

So drat good.


Sopressata


Shaved Brussels sprouts and pancetta


Prosciutto, cherry tomatoes, arugula

Looking great man. Really impressive results. Those crispy edges on the soppresata... So good. Don't be a tease though. Show us those bottoms. :quagmire:

Crap, didn't think to take a picture of the bottoms :/

For future reference, is there some trick to transferring the pizza onto the hot stone? It's so soft and sticky I have no idea.

I would use either flour or cornmeal on your peel or whatever you're using to transfer the pizza to the oven. If you're using flour, be a little mindful of how much because it can burn and taste pretty bitter. Cornmeal doesn't burn as easily.

Detroit style

Man, that second Detroit one looks good. I really want to buy a Detroit style pan, think they're about $35 on Amazon. Maybe that'll be my tax refund gift to myself (ha no I owed taxes).

gave up on centos after the last few cans required me to search through all the tomatoes and remove parts with spoiled spots, unpeeled sections and hard, unripened ends. loving trash.

Same here, and they seem to be much harder than other canned tomatoes so they don't break down as easily when making sauce (or tomato soup, or whatever).

I like DiNapoli, and Pomi is pretty good too although I think they only do crushed or strained tomatoes.

E: I've just reread the packaging... store in the fridge once opened and use within 4 months of opening... I had it stored in a dark cupboard and it has been open at least 10mo at this stage so chalk it up to RTFM :eng99:

If you store in the fridge, instant yeast often lasts way longer than 4 months in my experience. Currently using SAF red I bought in April 2020 and I've not noticed any difference in its effectiveness. But yeah, in a cupboard, it's not going to last you that long once you break the vacuum seal.

oh god, those machines might as well be purpose-made to send you to the ER for stitches.

Invest like $5 in some protective gloves and you have way better control of your ingredients than using the stupid little "holder" thingy that comes with most cheaper mandolins.

I just don’t cut the end of things on the mandoline. I’ll throw away an inch of potato or whatever, it’s easy.

I've slipped and sliced parts of my thumb too many times on super sharp cheese graters that I just wear one every time now. Mandolin, depends on what I'm slicing tbh.

Gonna photo dump a few things we've been showcasing as part of our future menu when we move into our brick and mortar.

Why am I seriously considering moving to Vegas and abandoning any semblance of a healthy diet?

Shame the actual pizza usually sucks

You take that back. When I go back to Sweden, I have to get pizza at least a couple of times because it's so much better than anything I can get around here.

Need a good focaccia recipe. Anyone have any suggestions?

I really like Samin Nosrat's one from Salt Fat Acid Heat - it's brined, which really helps each bite get that salty flavor.

Finally heading to Vegas for a little getaway a few days after Christmas this year - definitely stopping by Yukon, ogopogo. Hope to run into you (and looking forward to that delicious pizza).

Stopped by today and enjoyed awesome pizza for lunch, t-shirts, and a bottle of that natural wine to go because the glass I had was delicious.

Oh nice, thank you and glad you enjoyed! I picked up a fun little cold over Christmas so I haven’t been back in the shop yet, I miss making pies. What wine did you go for?

Hope you feel better soon!

Had a glass of the natural and then the white, which is what I picked a bottle of (Les Lunes macerated Chardonnay). Both were great!

This crust was probably the best I've ever made - baking steel in my crappy apartment oven. I really need a pizza oven but have no outdoor space for it.

80% hydration with Caputo flour, a little bit of KA's diastic malt powder and about 2.5% salt. Buffalo mozzarella, good olive oil, basil. Delicious.

Congrats, ogopogo! Now I'm extra upset you were out sick when I visited or I could have boasted to have met a bona fide world champion pizza.
