Re: My Journey Thus Far

Quote from: E.B. on Today at 02:24:47 PMThanks for saying that.  It made me go back and find a bake.  I didn’t have to search far.  Page 1, post #4, the first 3 photos are what I remembered being unsuccessful.

I’m clearly remembering wrong.  While not what the texture I was going for.  I’d eat that! 

A couple of thoughts which may or may not be related to your “no success”:

You may be putting too much on as far as sauce and toppings go. It’s hard to tell from your pics, but you probably should use a lot less than you think you would like. Some commercial operations, in the race to out compete their competitors, have really got people expecting lots of sauce and toppings. The advantage they have that you don’t is their high BTU ovens. I noticed that on at least one of your pics you had fresh tomatoes as a topping. Lots of water in those that your home oven will have trouble with. Same goes for other fresh toppings like peppers, onions, mushrooms, etc.

Have you taken temperature read…
