Every Friday is pizza day at the AZRP ranch. For the last five or six weeks I have been using hi-gluten flour for the crusts. I have settled in on a cold rise in the fridge for four days and have enjoyed the product. Unfortunately the hi-gluten flour is expensive so this week I tried bread flour with about 20% semolina, nothing else was changed procedurally. After sampling last night we have come to the conclusion that hi-gluten flour is worth every penny. Here is last nights pies. -RP

Thanks for posting this information RP. Pies look good!
-
Those look fantastic Randy. Did you do any tossing?
Those pictures were great. Please post again for everyone to see.
I do need to get some help with pizza dough. I really struggle working with it. I like a really thin crust and I find that hard to achieve.
I hope all is well. Kim posted yesterday that she spent most of the day in the ER. Please let me know. -
the pizzas look great and I am sure they taste just as great

I have been following your posts and will order some High Gluten flour today to try out. Bought a pizza peel and a pizza slicer this week and will try to cook my first pies from scratch this weekend!"Bacon tastes gooood, pork chops taste gooood." - Vincent Vega, Pulp Fiction

Wow - I'm suddenly craving a beer.
Nice lookin' pies. -
One source for Sir Lancelot flour is Dutch Valley Bulk Foods. I think I paid about 25.50 for 50 pounds. Came UPS and shipping charges were reasonable. Much cheaper in the long run but it takes a while to use up 50 pounds of flour.
-
I couldn't agree more.
A good substitute is to use bread flour and vital wheat gluten - it only takes Tbsp or so to make up the difference. -
Looks great Randy!
-
Where can I get KA flour. The local Publix(or any other store) doesnt carry it?
-
Looks great Randy, and just the right amount of toppings. I had gotten in the habit of overloading but now mine look similar to yours. IMHO, it's all about the crust, the toppings are the dressing.

Hi gluten is all I use. I just buy 25 or 30 lbs at a time and it is much cheaper than mail ordering from KA in small bags.
