let’s make a margarita pizza so hopefully that dough has been resting for three or four hours that’s ideal next put some flour on your countertop place your dough right in the center and flip it over once coat both sides generously with flower and then begin to press it out and now we’re going to do the gravity stretch place that dough in the back of your knuckles and turn it like you would a steering wheel just like this and now let’s grab our crushed tomatoes and start painting it on the pizza bring that sauce close to the edge but not over the edge just like life now let’s layer in some flavor we sprinkled some Romano just over the tomato sauce first and then we added our cubed fresh mozzarella so I meant to make this pizza directly on my peel instead we’re going to improvise and we’re going to slide it on top carefully I have my baking steel preheating at 500 I switch it to broil and then the launch then the broiler check make sure that thing is red hot after after 2 minutes open the oven up rotate that pizza turn the broiler off back on convection bake at 500 for two more minutes that is a beauty this pizza is super hot but let’s check underneath and look at that crust beautiful all right let’s finish this off with a little bit of fresh basil some extra virgin olive oil more cheese slice and enjoy this one is saucy

Wow Andris ! I don't know what you did but the sound and image quality is so much better !
You've changed my Pizza game forever ! I see that your wooden peel is very thick and mine was like this too but if I may suggest, it all changed when I bought
a perforated aluminum Pizza Peel , the one I bought was from Mimiuo 12 X14 , got it on amazon , built like a tank with a nice handle . Your recipes and tricks with this handle is pizza heaven for me ! I thank you for this !
