Using cast iron has been a game changer for me and making pizza in my home oven. Thought I needed a pizza steel or stone and this is all I’ve ever needed. 70% hydration dough, 3 day cold ferment, and low moisture skim mozzarella

    Great idea, and I’m feeling goofy for this having not occurred to me.

    I *love* Detroit style but don’t have the right pan, I was making it in a cake pan but some nonstick coating came off when I was trying to scrape out the last pizza, and I realized I probably don’t want to continue with that one.

    Round Detroit styles it is until I find a decent Detroit style pan in Canada.

    Would love the recipe if you could share. It looks delish

  3. I primarily cook in cast iron. Trick is to use 65 to 70 percent hydration dough mixed with a little olive oil. I often do a cold bake and then second pizza in the hot pan and there ain’t much of a difference. I like thin crust so I use a rolling pin then hand stretch even more.

    The King Arthur Flour 2020 recipe of the year is essentially a Detroit style (sauce on top of cheese) cast iron pizza with Frico (cheese to the pan edge that crisps). It is super forgiving and easy.

  5. The pizza and the “cutting corners” dad joke? Exceptional!

    How many grams of dough per pizza ? Looks great

    Pepperoni, pecorino and basil is my favorite combo for toppings. Looks great!
