Same dough, different baking temperature. Who knew it would make such a drastic difference? At 600°F, it took longer to bake which reduced the rise and baked off the residual moisture to get a thinner but crispier NY style pizza. At 850°F, the bake was only a minute thirty, big crust spring from the intense heat which gave the pizza a soft and puffy crust with a light crunch from the blisters. Which one do you prefer?

  1. Results would be similar if you cooked the higher temperature one for slightly longer so an equal amount of thermal energy is absorbed…..

    Using Thermodynamics (I won't go into detail), but I account for convection and radiation differences at both temperatures…. 135 seconds is about equivalent to 600F at 300 seconds (5 minutes).

    Next time cook the 800F one for another 45 seconds!

  2. You need to show us which pizza is which and explain the pros and cons of cooking at each temperature!!

  3. Same concept as achieving flaky buttermilk biscuits. The higher the temperature the faster and more explosive water evaporates creating more air and “puffiness” . The lower, the opposite. Explaining the difference in the outcomes.

  4. Hello bud!! Very well done! From an Irish man with Italian blood in me. This is refreshing to see. America. We love you. We are your blood. Dna and real allay!! Make your own.
