Learning Knowledge to Make Pizza: Another Attempt almost like the Caputo experiment, but with trying to bake a low protein flour in the deck oven 1/29/2012

Welcome...

There are so many variables that go into making a PIZZA. The hydration of the dough, flour, yeast and many more.. Amounts of any kind of yeast in a pizza can make a big difference. Most recipes posted on the web, use too much yeast in their recipes. What I have found out so far, is either bulk fermenting the dough or cold fermenting the dough will give a better flavor in the crust. I am still experimenting to find different flavors in the crust of pies. In my opinion pizza is all about the best flavor you can achieve in a crust. I still am on the journey about flavors in the crust. Even differences in temperatures in you home or times of the year can influence how much yeast to use. If you want a pizza to develop flavors in the crust, there are many ways to go about achieving this.

Another Attempt almost like the Caputo experiment, but with trying to bake a low protein flour in the deck oven 1/29/2012

I mixed another dough this morning to be tried Tuesday in the deck oven. This time I change the flour from Caputo to AP and cake flour. I kept the hydration, sugar, oil, molasses, Dry Malt, and Dried Eggs the same amount of grams I used for my last attempt. I did add a couple of other ingredients this time. I added sweet dried buttermilk at 3 grams and also added baked dried gluten at 6 grams. I added the baked dried gluten because since it still tastes nice and nutty and is crunchy it seems like it is still good to me, and I wanted to see if there is anyway baked gluten can be incorporated into a pizza dough come HOHW. I ground up 3 grams of my MM clone baked gluten and 3 grams of the MM baked gluten. I showed pictures of the wet-gluten which was then baked wet gluten at Reply 1100 http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,3940.msg168387.html#msg168387 I used my spice and nut grinder to grind up the baked gluten.

The dough came together well, with tiny flecks of baked gluten in the dough. I have no ideas how the pizza will do when baked though, or even if it will brown. I am also not sure about trying the AP and cake flour instead of Caputo.
