  • My local Italian grocer sells dough made with regular flour and with 00, I’ve always had better luck with the 00 stuff, seems stretchier and more resilient.
    I’m a regular oven pizza maker (with a steel). I should add that I’m in Canada so our regular flour may differ from yours.

  • Interesting, wonder what the 00 has that makes it more stretchy. That's the problem I have is stretching it out, kneed after kneed if I go real thin it seems to get holes.

    Trying to decide if it's worth ordering 5lbs (2.2kg) for $18. the flour itself is $8, but shipping is $10 ... from Petaluma, which normally is a nice drive from SF except we're not allowed to drive really.

    Forget getting 00 in SF atm, I managed to get bread flour from my local bakery though!

  • More gluten, which contains the proteins that cause the elasticity.

  • 100% use 00, not just 00 but good italian pizza 00.
    Reg yeast, you have me doubting my info now... going to have ot doouble check.
