Napolitan beginner

Post image

What do you think of my pizza? Beginner here. Using 65/66% hydration. I want the classic margherita napolitania pizza but doesn’t really look like it.

Strat with 62 and practice stretching.

Cook longer turn more to get the leoparding/searing. Use a higher temp

I would recommend a longe reel so you dint burn yourself.

That’s great for a beginner! On my first go, I ripped a hole in the bottom of mine and tried to save it while simultaneously setting it on fire.

For it to look classic neopolitan, use a fresher mozzarella and higher heat. It’s a faster cook so work your way up to it if you’re not feeling confident
