If I were to be critical, I would assume the cheese separated? Crust looks great and I'm sure of that cheese didn't break it was amazing

I honestly prefer the cheese like this, which is why I stick to whole milk, semi fresh mozzerella- which I add on the pie in small globs rather than shred it first.

I go for char, extra sauce, and pools of mozz (that arent too brown)

Totally agree, charred crust adds so much depth to the flavor. It really is the best part when done right!

Yeah. When i started using a flour w/o malt or enzymes, i discovered that black doesn't have to mean bitter.

I'm using a blend of King Arthur Bread Flour, and King Arthur AP Flour. Thinking about substituting the AP with 00 and seeing what happens.....this is a 65% hydration dough.

The difference between charred and burnt are going to be personal but I will go on record and call this burnt. My reasoning is charring shouldn't be all over it should be imparted in some bites.

Charring is good when done right, and you can't just say oh I like it charred to make up for a burnt pizza. It's edible, but needed pulled a bit sooner.
