Pizzas...and some new recipes

I tried to replicate the great White Calabrese pizza from Bufalina (another great Nepalotano place in Austin), turned out different but very good. Razor thin Serrano slices, garlic, olive oil, mozzarella, Italian salami, basil, thinly sliced Parm. 



Next up, Rocket v2: garlic, olive oil, parmigiana, arugula, cherry tomatoes, prosciutto, spritzed with fresh lemon. 


Then pistachio: olive oil, garlic, mozzarella, Parm., salami, fresh crushed pistachio pieces

    Looks great and sounds delicious.  Your crusts look kinda light in color.  What was your dough and temp?

    those look GREAT!!

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    Nice!  . . I'll just say real flavor from dough comes when you give it some color on top & bottom.  All about making ur dough formula match your ovens temp/time.  I dont have it figured out, but Love trying . .  pizza is the ultimate experiment.

    Looks great. Try a dryer dough or a smidge of sugar in the dough if you like the texture.

    The toppings look lovely. How long were they cooked for, and did you raise into the dome?

    @Stormbringer  I cooked at about 600 dome, they don't take very long...maybe three minutes or so.  I don't have a setup to get as high in the dome as I would like, I use platesetter legs up, factory grate, ceramic feet, pizza stone.

    The well known Pizzeria Bianco in Phoenix has a signature pie called the "Rosa". It is topped with red onion, parm-regg, rosemary and unsalted pistachios. I've never been there, but I've made the pizza a couple of times. Surprisingly (to me anyway) good!

    Yours looks better, but here's mine...

    Thanks. Mine look like that after about 2.5 mins, I cooked raised into the dome using fire bricks to support at around 650-700, otherwise exactly the same setup as you. Also for 5 minutes but I prefer a more well done crust, but I guess that might frazzle your toppings. :)

    @Carolina Q that recipe looks really good, I will have to try that.

    @Stormbringer thanks for the tip on using firebricks...not sure why I didn't think of that, I have some sitting on my Egg table that I use for Yakitori.
