You mean planning to actually make the dough?

Charlie: They key to patience is making 3-4 doughballs at time and eating 1 every 24hrs.

How did your pies turn out? I'd recommend using king Arthur or gold medal bread flour, or a higher gluten flour (all trumps) for a new York crust. 00 flour is used for neopolitian pies but you need a minimum of 750 degrees to bake it correctly. Here are some pies I baked up last night using...

This will yield two 14in pies AP Flour (100%): 373.83 g | 13.19 oz | 0.82 lbs Water (50%): 186.92 g | 6.59 oz | 0.41 lbs IDY (.5%): 1.87 g | 0.07 oz | 0 lbs | 0.62 tsp | 0.21 tbsp Salt (1%): 3.74 g | 0.13 oz | 0.01 lbs | 0.67 tsp | 0.22 tbsp Oil (8%): 29.91 g | 1.05 oz | 0.07 lbs | 6.65 tsp...

Are you looking for NY style or chicago cracker/thin crust?

Good looking pizza Charlie. How did it taste? I made this one last week.

There is a big difference between AP and bread flour. The flavor and oven spring are not the same. Aunt Bea, if you are looking for a cheap great tasting bread flour try the Gold Medal "better for bread flour" sold at Walmart. I can get a 5 lb sack here for $2.80.

Is that a 100% swap of water for vodka?

Yea I use corn oil but u can use butter, Crisco or even Pam grill cooking spray. Just don't use olive oil because of its low smoke point.

Use this recipe. Here is the recipe folks. This will yield five 14 inch pies. Flour (100%): 1235.62 g | 43.58 oz | 2.72 lbs Water (62%): 766.09 g | 27.02 oz | 1.69 lbs IDY (.5%): 6.18 g | 0.22 oz | 0.01 lbs | 2.05 tsp | 0.68 tbsp Salt (2%): 24.71 g | 0.87 oz | 0.05 lbs | 4.43 tsp | 1.48 tbsp...

Typically 00 flour isn't used unless you have a minimum of 700 degrees to bake with. I'd go with king Arthur bread flour or gold medal "better for bread flour".

BOOM! If you're from chicago this is a must.

Haha
