First time using 65% hydration for this pizza I normally do 70% and prefer the ease of stretching at the higher hydration. Not sure what was up with the sauce but I always buy the same brand of whole peeled tomatoes and this time when I opened the can it was super thick, the taste was fine but much harder to spread evenly and will obviously reduce more in the oven so a little upset about that.

That’s a great looking pizza! I’m surprised to know you prefer the higher hydration for ease of stretching! I thought it’d make it a bit trickier to stretch comparing to dough with lower hydration!
Thanks for sharing!

That looks great. I have been wanting to try their 00 flour. I use their high mountain bf for all my sourdough baking and think it is wonderful. I wish their shipping costs had not gone up so much. It’s too far for me to drive up during the week and they are closed weekends.

My oven is a block away from central milling, I love theirs 00. I use the Germania and the reinforced for a similar ferment. Looks fantastic
