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.

How to make a good NY style pizza crust with Sprite

These are the photos of the dough and pizza made with 3% of Sprite to replace some of the formulas water.  The dough was a lot softer than the same dough made with just water.

I really liked the part that the dough ball opened so easily in a one day cold ferment.

The rim crust was nice and moist. The rim was smaller than the usual rims I make when I open dough balls. I didn't do anything different to create the smaller rim. It was because the dough just formed into a skin without much of any elasticity.

I am not quite sure of what the small amount of Sprite does to the dough.  Will have to do some more experiments.
