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.

Still experimenting with making a Detroit style pizza at home and at market....

I am doing different experiments to see which one will make the best Detroit style pizza I can to offer at market.  Each week keeps giving different twists and turns.  It is always interesting to see how the experiments work out, but sometimes they give me mixed results and some I really don't understand why something happened.  Pete-zza has been helping me try to understand why things happen and is trying to steer me in the direction so I can make a decent Detroit style pizza for market.  Hopefully soon I will have a reliable formulation and methods for making consistent Detroit style pizzas at market.

These are some of the Detroit style pizzas I have made in the last 2 weeks.  It is easier to make them at home than at market, because when experimenting with only one and not having to deal with different dough balls all day long and trying to temper them in the steel pan is is a lot easier to be able to understand the results.
