How to recreate the iconic Motor City deep-dish classic
In short: This video demonstrates the specific technique for making authentic Detroit-style deep-dish pizza, a regional staple that some suggest is a descendant of the Sicilian Sfincione.
The process begins by combining 425 mL of 90ºF water with 75g of durham semolina flour and 10 mL of instant dry yeast to prove the yeast. After mixing in 500g of bread flour and salt, the dough is kneaded for 7-8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
To achieve the signature texture, the dough is pressed into oiled 10 x 14 pans and allowed to rise at room temperature for two hours until it reaches halfway up the pan. The assembly follows a traditional method: pepperoni is placed directly onto the dough, covered with cheese, and finished with sauce ladled in two stripes.
