Pizza

any advice for using plain flour as a base?

just do it

Just don’t.
Bread flour is not the same as pizza flour either.

Can you elaborate? I’ve only got a shitty leccy oven to cook in anyway. It’s not even fan assisted.

People have been making pizza with plain flour for centuries! It might be different but doesn't mean it can't be good pizza.

You know there are parts of the world where you just can't get any of the fancy pants super special flour, and believe it or not I have catered a couple hundred pizzas made from cheap as chips standard plain flour cooked in a wood fired oven that was so big you could have shoved a cow in (needing one hell of a fire, hours before) out in the boonies on an island and it was amongst the best pizzas I have ever made.

People like Coldplay and voted for the nazis, you can’t trust people.

Forget the oven. Frying pan and grill is what you’re after.

How’s that then? Get the grill as hot as possible, pizza in pan, pan under grill?

Ha, came here for plain flour advice then found this!

Forget the frying pan and grill. All it takes is the collective hot air from fixie skidders to cook pizza.

Seriously though has anyone got a tried and tested passable recipe with plain flour as I have loads of that but cant get any bread flour at the min .

Want to try a deepish pan style in a cast iron.

Thats the ticket! Pizza Pilgrims and Crust Bros are doing a fair few videos on that method atm.

I like my Pizza slightly charred, not incinerated....

Best pizza ever was made on an iceberg using starch, American cheese and ketchup. I fed the five thousand and walked on water.

I’ll try later and report back.

Tru dat

Sweet, I’ll have a go!

Gonna have a massive slice of bread, with some Gouda and piece of a semi-ripe tomato for lunch.
Fuck you all!

Classic German pizza.

I'll put it on top of the toaster for a minute so the underside is lukewarm.

Win!
My local is open, oven fired up.
Margarita with Nduja for lunch

How much flour do you want?

Need yeast.

Not according to the people on here, who have become the world authority as someone said it on the internet.

Now what apoplexy would using chick pea flour cause? https://mykidslickthebowl.com/gluten-free-chickpea-pizza-base/ Then what about if you just squished chick peas?

I’m taking delivery of 5kgs Shipton’s dark rye on Monday. Just wondering if anyone would like to do a swap of 2 or 3kgs rye for some ‘00’ flour? I’m in SE6
