~48 hour ferment
Low moisture mozzarella & sharp provolone, roni, sundried tomato sauce

Think I need to use less dough to make it a little shorter in height? Flavor was great though, I think it’s my best one yet

  1. I personally enjoy some good lift in my slices as long as its not too dense. Tall fluffy Detroit slices are great! Nice work.

    You should add more red sauce, but other than that, it looks good.

    I can’t find where to edit this , but I forgot to add
    Does anyone know what I can do to dial in the rise for the pre bake? I’m trying to get a more uniform rise on it but some parts rise higher than others when I do it sometimes

    After it comes out of the fridge for its final rise, you can lightly nudge the dough to even it out a bit for a more even rise. Also, your cheese looks great but please please add supplement sone of it with brick cheese! Detroits need that buttery flavor

    Detroit Pizza should have a high fat aged cheese. Traditionalists would say it needs to be Brick cheese. If you can source it, you should try it.

    I’m a big pepperoni fan, so I’d probably like it. I’d love it more if there was 50% to 75% more pepperoni though. 🙂

    480g bread flour
    5g sugar
    5g instant yeast
    6g salt
    350g water

    Butter/olive oil

    Mix all dry ingredients together in the bowl of a standup mixer, add water and slowly mix until a rough dough

    Let rest 15-20 minutes

    Mix on medium speed ~10-15 minutes until a smooth dough ball

    Put into an oiled container and refrigerate 40-72 hours
    ( I think around 48 is the sweet spot, used half of this dough yesterday which was a full 5 day ferment, and while the dough was easier to work with, I think overall, the shorter ferment was better)

    Rub surface of pan with room temp butter (lloyds 8×10)
    Spread olive oil on bottom, and place dough in center, stretch to fit pan and let sit for ~2 hours to final rise

    Par bake 10-12 minutes at 500 degrees F
    Let cool on a wire rack, upside down
    Replace cooked dough in pan and liberally cheese the sides and corners, add whatever other cheese and toppings, bake at 500F for ~15 minutes
    Let cool before carefully removing from pan
