Hi can I use wheat flour alternative of all purpose flour?
posted by Bharat Wadhwa on June 25, 2015
you can use whole wheat flour but it will result in a very dense texture use 2/3 whole wheat and 1/3 maida/all purpose flour you will get much better results

Hey Bharat just checked out your pizza recipe. Which is the best all purpose flour to use. Is bread flour the same as all purpose as i am in australia and using the right flour is confusing. Also is it 7 grams of yeast dry yeast or 4-5 that is also confusing me. Also what are you saying about baking powder and baking soda. Does it have anything to do with this recipe? Am I getting confused because i am reading everyones comments?
posted by Bharat Wadhwa on June 15, 2016
the best flour for pizza is italian ’00’ Bread Flour if you don’t get that use normal bread flour, you need 7 gms of instant yeast or 4-5 gms of active dry yeast 🙂
posted by Steve on June 16, 2016
Hi Bharat thanks so much for replying so promptly. In Australia 00 flour is used for pasta and not recommended for pizza. Very confusing. I will use bread flour and let you know how it turns out. Thanks for the water spray tip. Making pizza tonight. Sure looks great on your video. Stand by for the results!

Hi again Bharat. Well made my pizza last night using bread flour and it turned out rather nice. I did have to add more water though as the dough was a little stiff. I heated it again for lunch on top of the stove in a frying pan with alfoil covering the pan and it tasted even better. Thanks for the recipe. I will be sure to check out your other videos. All the best!

Hi!! Thanks for the reception. I tried the piazza crust but was disappointed…..I want to give it another try.my piazza was doughy in the centre. Secondly it was not crunchy.. thirdly no air hole pockets. Where do I think I went wrong. Kindly email to me as well.

I would appreciate if u could kindly let know how to ferment the piazza dough in a cold temperate zone like Seattle where temperature is ten degrees or less. The dough does not rise. I kept the dough in a warm oven . But it became flat and the dough spread. Finally when I baked it did not rise and the piazza centre was doughy without any air pockets. The taste of the pizza was good but it was doughy as well. Kindly help ….I am waiting to give it another try.
