I made a pizza dough using a cold rising technique i found yesterday.
 
The dough recipe is nothing special:
 
1,5dl of cold water.
2 teaspoon of dry yeast.
1/2 teaspoon of salt.
Few dash of olive oil.
around 3,5dl of wheat flour.
 
Make the dough like you usually do and the special part of the thing is, that you rise the dough in the fridge atleast 2 hours before making the pizza. You can make the dough in a day earlier and put it in the fridge to rise for a long time before baking. The longer the dough rises in the cold, the better the taste.
 
I rised the dough in the fridge for around 2 hours yesterday and after tasting the pizza, the taste of the pizza seemed to be much better than the usual warm rised pizza dough people normally make.
 
Sorry to have been missing for long time...
I am making some pizza again...
Here a try with a type 1 flour (rougher, healthier, more substantial and nourishing than standard one, less suitable for pizza but still a nice compromise)

It didn't look much good and it was a bit crunchy on surface. Awesome consistence though.
Simple with just hot pepperoni, but really, the simpler is nearly always the better....
 
Love that sauce, looks like san marzanos and nothing else! So simple sweet and good.

Good to see you back and posting my friend. Nice pie. 
 
Cheers
 
After making pizzas for many years I finally got the wife to let me build a pizza oven. Since I've never done any brick work before I didn't wanna spend too much, or make it permanent. So this is built on a steel frame which I've covered with some treated ply.
 
The idea was to make it look like a gothic castle, had to make steel frame to support the roof (and work out the steel expansion rate, etc so it doesnt crack under heat), lucky I joined a pizza oven making forum so got a ton of good advice thourhout the build. In the end the materials only cost like $450NZD so at least it's not a major if something goes wrong, but I don't see why this won't last for a few years.
 
Have fired it up for the first time today to see what it goes like, proper test starts next weekend with some test pizzas. The original build is here http://ukwoodfiredovenforum.proboards.com/thread/2537/first-time-build-gothic-castle but it's nothing too impressive, it's basically learn as I go, but I'm pretty happy with the outcome.

I think that turned out freaking fantastic! I been wanting to build one for a long time myself but have no brick experience. Can't wait to see how the pies turn out.
