    Love the front of the peel, don’t see that on wooden peels. Oh and the pizza looks great too.

  3. What a great pizza!

    What’s your dough recipe and method?

  4. Zecathos

    Recipe:

    Dough hydration: 68%
    Flour: Molino Dallagiovanna La Napoletana and a little hit of Polselli Vivace
    Salt: 2,9h
    Sourdough starter: 3,8%

    ~14h RT bulk rise followed by ~22h in the fridge balled

    Dough:

    1. Mix the flour and water, begin autolyse
    2. After 2 hours, add the sourdough starter and mix well
    3. Wait for 30 minutes and add the salt
    4. Knead the dough for 5-10 minutes until smooth
    5. Fold the dough 1-2 times during the bulk rise if you want to to bring some additional strength to the dough, not mandatory
    6. Once time is up, make dough balls (230-260g) and put them in to the fridge.
    7. 2-3 hours before baking, take the dough balls to room temperature

    Tomato sauce:

    1. Prepare the sauce 1 day in advance to let the flavors develop
    2. San Marzano tomatoes, hand crushed
    3. Add some salt, olive oil and basil to taste

    Baking:

    1. Heat your oven to about 430C in the middle of the stone
    2. Bake for about 1 minute, turning the pizza when needed to get the pizza to cook evenly
