Fuck that crap and you people can fuck yourselves. I like it slightly warmer than room temp. That means I microwave it to get it that way, that's like 20 seconds or so, then throw it on a hot skillet. Banging, best of both worlds right there even with leftover pizza.

If you have a heavy duty baking tray just flip that over and use it.
Otherwise, get a steel, or rather go to a hardware store and get a medium gauge piece of sheet steel, for more crispness, but higher chances of burning and stickage, and having to deal with a big block of steel.
Or a stone for less crispness, longer preheating, but sticking less and probably being lighter.
Preheat to like 450-500F depending on the size of the pizza, if its larger go lower so the dough has time to fully cook before burning, and then slide it on.
Throw the upper heating element on and give it a few minutes to cook fully, watching closely.

Stone/steel preheated max for 1 hr. Right before launch, turn on the broiler, so it goes into the oven with the broiler orange. Have the steel about 8-10 inches from the broiler. Let that cook for 30 sec-1 min then turn off the broiler and turn it back to reg oven max heat. Cook another few minutes, turn it once or twice.

An oven at 900F. Oven heat like that is worth almost all the rest-- ingredients, technique, etc. It takes a lot more effort and refinement when you are down 400 degrees in a home oven. 00 flour is just bread flour milled fine like a gravy flour, so it can absorb water more easily, but any kind of extended rest will pretty much get you that. Its unmalted and medium gluten. For home ovens a malted bread flour or stronger is probably best. If you dont have a stone, a steel square cake pan or a very thick aluminum sheet pan can make first rate pan pizzas.

I have a question too, I've been using a pizza stone recently and you're supposed to pre-heat the pizza stone on the BBQ/ Oven, make the pizza on a seperate tray and then slide the pizza onto the pizza stone. However, whenever I make the pizza base myself it sticks to the base of whatever I've made it on so that I can't slide it onto the pizza stone
Any tricks for solving this? Is my pizza dough wrong, is it a bad idea to put hot pizza sauce straight onto the pizza base, am I loading up the pizza with too much stuff? I've tried putting a huge amount of flour underneath the base to stop it from sticking but it never works

Two things that make it easier

Good advice too, would you recommend foil or baking paper like >>15919767 says? Maybe foil is better since I won't have to remove it, and I think the baking paper I have says it shouldn't be used at high temperatures

What are you using for a peel? If it's metal instead of wood that can cause problems. Dust flour all over the dough before stretching and dust flour and cornmeal or semolina on the peel. Lowering the hydration to 58-60% also helps a lot. At that hydration with a wood peel and some skill you may not even need the flour.

I had the same problem, I tried with semolina for months but it made so much fucking mess and get everywhere and my wife would go ape shit. More recently I tried with baking paper and it worked a few times but once it got totally stuck and I had to throw out the pizza. My final solution is just to remove the pizza stone from the oven and put it on the stove stop, put the stretched dough and dress it quickly before returning to the oven. This works best as you get a crisper base since it starts cooking at soon as it hits the stone and less mess from extra flour and no sliding means you won’t lose toppings everywhere

>>15916931
Basically I make the dough as indicated in the recipe I linked, then spread some semolina flour on the iron skillet and place the stretched dough in it. Put the sauce on, then cook on the hob at max temperature for ~4 mins, rotating every 30 secs or so as the iron skillet heats up unevenly. At this point the dough should start bubbling, put the cheese on and slap it in a preheated oven as high as it goes (mine goes to 275 deg) with the broiler on, right under it - should be done in 4/5 mins.

I'm still optimize timings for my oven and hobs and playing around with hydration levels and proofing times - can't quite get that airy, springy border yet but can make excellent ticker pies - stuffed crusts come out pretty well too.

Pic related, stuffed crust sausage and potato white pizza, very tasty.

Yeah. This thing. Metal can stick but is good for turning once it's cooked a little. Cant speak to your cutting board but might be the problem. And yeah: maybe reduce the water a little. And someone said: don't let it sit on the board for long. You have to work fast or it will stick if the dough is wet at all. A kitchen scale is a good thing to have. Srs home bakers don't use volumetric measurements, like cups and shit. Things are done by grams, oz, whatever, so the recipes can scale to any size when you represent a recipe as a series of percentages. So a typical pizza dough looks like
Flour 100%
Water 62%
Salt 2%
Oil 2%
Sugar 1%
Instant Yeast 0.5%

with a typical 12" pizza dough being about 300 grams. For pizza there's also "thickness factor" with 0.1 being pretty standard medium thickness crust. Many scales can't do super fine measurements, like mine, so I still use tsp and tbs for the light stuff like the salt, yeast, etc. All the online calculators for pizza dough output measurements like this.

I use a pizza steel and a wooden pizza peel which has been lightly floured. If the pizza is a bit sticky before launching, picking up a corner of the dough and blowing a pocket of air underneath, letting go of the edge you were holding up and giving the whole thing a shake will usually free it up and have that pizza dough sitting like it's a tiny hovercraft, it'll glide on that pocket of air straight into the oven, it's a trick I learned when working in a pizzaria that used wooden peels and had some large/heavy pizzas that were hard to launch.

>> No.15920907

>>15920824
I'd say three possibilities:

1. Lower rack so the steel is closer to the main heating element, and hopefully the ambient temperature around it is enough to crisp the top

2. Highest rack in the hopes of capturing heat reflecting/radiating from the top surface of the oven (and also sitting in the hottest air), in the hopes of having your pizza crisp properly on the top crust

3. (Most likely to succeed, but also biggest pain in the ass) Start the pizza on the steel in the lowest position of your main oven and bake until the bottom of the crust is looking good, then transfer to your pre-heated broiling drawer to broil the top and ensure it gets as crispy as it should.

>> No.15920915

>>15919589
Lots of replies to this with good advice but what I've found really helps too is to let the edge of the dough hang over your peel a little bit, then bring that in contact with the stone and let it sit there for a couple seconds. The dough will stick to the stone and then you can slide your peel out effortlessly. Gotta credit my man Weeds & Sardines for this, super underrated channel.

I tried the highest rack and it didnt work at all, the base refused to brown and the top didn't melt very well either, I determined that putting it at the bottom works best and the top crisps just fine. But I have to be careful because the steel gets way way hotter at the back and I risk burning everything black. I'm gonna try rotating the pizza halfway through to fix that.

My take on the broiler is like I said above: do it when you launch, not at the end. Right before you launch it, switch to broiler. When it's glowing orange, which takes a few seconds, then launch. Let it go for 30-45 seconds until it's risen all it will and then shut it off and go back to reg max heat for the rest of the bake. Pizza should be maybe 10 inches from the element.

these traditional italian style pizzas are such garbage.

yeah, you really gotta have everything ready one you lay your dough on your peel/slider

if youre letting it sit on it for the length of time it takes to grate cheese, cut vegies n shit, sticking is almost 100 percent likely

of course you should give your tray/peel/slider a few shakes to see if the pie moves freely or if its stuck before try to slide it it. keep shaking until all areas are free and moving.
in a pinch, use something flat with some flour on it and slip it under any places that are catching - thats my spots fix when i have to trouble shoot a non sliding pie

my method: put the stone one the 2nd rack from the top, and use the broiler to preheat it. when it is preheated, just switch to baking mode.
i can usually get 650 degrees on the stone with this method.

might be your technique
well floured surface
press/pat/push with finger tips all about, demarcating a crust zone and pushing down an interior zone and shaping the whole
once its spread a bid, just start hanging it on your knuckles and letting gravity do most the work

STOP using bread flour
STOP using Caputo 00

All trump's bromated is the gold standard. Limp wristedittle bitches won't use it because a biased study from Japan in 1989 showed that the presence of potassium bromate in quantities millions of orders of magnitude greater than you'd get in a bag of flour might have given some lab rats cancer in it's raw form, so it was labeled a carcinogen and banned in Europe. Nevermind it's a tiny amount in raw flour and changes state at 500 degrees to become a different chemical altogether during baking which isnt a carcinogen, so you're never even ingesting raw bromate and every major east coast pizza restaurant uses it. It's also 14.2% and can handle really high hydration levels ridiculously well. Best fucking pizza dough flour out there.

I know you think of me as a man of exceptionally refined tastes, being a three-star Michelin chef and all that, but I like the simple things in life. I am not one to splash out on fancy cars (I can't drive for a start), or posh clothes, or even holiday homes around the globe like so many of my friends. I am happiest in the countryside, fishing or stalking, or just being with good friends, chatting and catching up.
So, dear readers, do not be shocked by this week's recipe, for it is a simple offering - a humble pizza. If you go to my restaurant, you will get a posher version, but this is one you can make at home with the children. Watch them devour it, for they will love the flavour.
To me, the key to a great pizza is the base, and what you need to do here is to make sure it is super-thin. It is easily done - once you have it on the baking tray, just keep spreading it out until you feel it is as thin as possible.
Remember, the base will rise slightly when cooked so you can afford to be radical here.
I would (as loyal readers will remember) suggest you use buffalo mozzarella; it just tastes so much better, and the texture is much nicer. Frankly, the other stuff is a bit like rubber by comparison. Sort of like the difference between Edam and Cheddar, and who eats Edam, for heaven's sake? Why would you bother?
If you want to put some other ingredients such as chicken on top (cooked, obviously) or anything else that takes your fancy, then go for it. But I'm a strictly margherita man, always have been. Why add to something that's perfect?

I remember the first time I tasted a real Neapolitan pizza margherita, in Naples (funnily enough), at a pizzeria called the Antica Pizzeria Port'Alba. It is said to be the oldest pizzeria in the city and dates to 1738, when it produced pizzas for peddlers to sell on the streets.
The pizzas are heavenly - the thin crust with the brown, almost burnt crust, the tasty tomatoes and melted cheese, just utter heaven, and what could be simpler?

Knead longer to form more gluten bonds. Use flour rich in protein - more protein the flour has, the more gluten you will form when kneading.
