Today's the day. Three pizzas going across our kitchen, every skill level represented, and this is the thread where it all happens.
Here's how it works. As you mix, stretch, top, and bake, post your photos and your questions right here in this thread. I'll be in the kitchen with you all day. Ask anything. Show me your dough fighting you. Show me your beautiful disaster. Show me your kid's dinosaur-shaped pizza. The information is in the dough, and the answers are in this thread.
๐ฅ Sourdough Neapolitan | https://skoo.ly/sd-neapolitan The stretch track. Blistered crust, Vitale doing the work, three days of patience paying off. Quick reminders before you launch:
Crank your oven to max with the stone or steel inside for a full 45 minutes. No stone? Inverted heavy sheet pan works great, or grandma-style in a metal pan on the bottom rack.
Sauce light. Cheese moderate. Toppings spread out, not piled.
Paint the bare rim with olive oil and a pinch of flaky salt before launching. Three seconds, big payoff.
Hold the basil until after the bake. Burns to a brown spot if it goes in raw.
Let it rest two minutes before slicing.
Drop your tracks below. Tell me which one you're baking and show me your dough. I want pictures all day long. The crust, the crumb, the char, the chaos. The mistakes too, those are where the learning lives.
Let's bake.
