Official TD Entry
Please accept this as my humble entry into this TD.
I made two pies. Started with some homemade dough.
20oz bread flour
10 oz warm water
2 oz olive oil
1 packet quick rise yeast
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp salt
Mixed the water, sugar and yeast to activate the yeast. Once that was foaming I added to the flour and mixed in the kitchen aid for about 15 minutes until the gluten had properly formed and it passed the window pane test.
Set aside to rest for about 45 minutes.
While the dough was resting I browned up some spicy Italian sausage, some crimini mushrooms and carmelized some shallots.
Once the dough had risen I rolled it out as thin as I could and then brushed with olive oil and spread with the carmelized shallots.
Then topped with some fresh mozz, the sausage and mushrooms.
Then onto the Traeger at about 450 for 15 minutes. I usually use the kettle for pizza but thought I would try out the pellet pooper this time around. I really liked the extra smoke flavor that cooking in the Traeger gave the pie. It'll be the default pizza oven going forward.
Please use this as my entry pic.
Second pic I topped with some homemade sauce, hot cappicola, prosciutto and more fresh mozz.
15 minutes later
This was an excellent pizza as well, but the sausage and mushroom is always my favorite.
Thanks for looking.
