Pizza, part 2 (results)

I ended up using Recipe 3 along with some tips from the other recipes.

Results:
The crust was still not great :( - I refuse to believe that heavily refined bread flour is the best option. I must find a way to make whole grain flour produce a nice crust. It was also bland. Needs more seasoning or flavor. I do think this flour by Jovial is very processed (should have figured that out right away because the package says "all purpose flour"). I want to mill my own einkorn flour and see the difference.

The dough after resting for 2 hours. It doubled in size.

Added the dough to the lightly-oiled cast iron pan

I added the homemade marinara sauce second to last rather than topping the crust with it first. I think it made a slight difference in taste.

The mix of toppings was great this time. Thanks to the pineapples! Whoever discovered the idea to add pineapple to pizza is a genius!!! The other toppings are: grass-fed ground beef,

onions, marinara sauce, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, and one other cheese.

I noticed that some liquid was dripping to the crust edges. It might be the water from onions or the fresh pineapple chunks so I will try sauteing the onions and drying the pineapples longer.

I have some leftover dough so I will try again but will season the dough with more sugar and some seasonings. Pre-bake the crust with the marinara sauce before applying any toppings.

Taa-daa!

Also, I think I will try a flatbread and/or naan crust if the leftover dough still does not turn out right.
