    I only had all purpose flour(Gold Medal brand), so I used that and raised my hydration to 74% which is a very wet mix for pizza dough.
    Mixed it up with salt, sugar, EVOO and yeast. Let it rest on the counter for 30 minutes and then pulled it together and got it into a bowl.
    Another 30 minutes and then folded it.
    Let rise for 4 hours or so and then balled it up.
    Started baking them 1.5 hours after balling in a 500° F oven on a steel for 6 minutes.
    They were very difficult to launch because of the high hydration, so I used additional semolina on my peel. I probably could have used parchment paper.
    They came out great with a crispy outer and a super soft and delicate crumb.

    Found a good work around for my pizza last night ended up pre cooking the bases 20230415_172921.jpg
    This turned out good then I can put all the toppings on and flick it back in on the stone without it sticking to the peal 20230415_174229.jpg

    Also the base cooked through better something about the gluten free flour they were a tad raw in the middle 20230415_180104.jpg

    yes it keeps the crust from getting so soggy letting you add more sauce or wet ingredients

    Well spotted indeed, but you missed the anchovies :)
    Cheese was over-aged maaslander
    Think extra mature Gouda, like 3 years old.
