Pizza night - wild venison, spinach and goats cheese

A log time since I cooked a pizza in the Egg. For the dough, I made a ball then cold fermented it for 24 hours. I shape it directly from the fridge, it was really easy to work with. Topped with passatta, shredded cheddar and mozzarella, sliced wild venison, spinach and crumbly goats cheese. Cooked at 650F raised into the dome. 

Shaped and ready to cook:

    Yes sir.  Never a doubt when you crank out pizza.

    If you can get that kinda perfect circle, direct from the fridge, I gotta be doing something wrong.   :|

    The trick for me is to do a 24 hour cook fermentation which allows the dough to relax and easy to manipulate. I ball it up and place it in a plate seam down. Next time I make one I’ll take pics or do a video of the shaping process.

    Thank you for sharing, and I would be very interested in a step by step process along with images, as my pizza game is so amateur, the results are consistently, mediocre. Your presentation looks amazing and I am very interested to deliver results close to what you have presented.
