Ginos east recipe Turmeric is way off. Never tasted it though, so dont disgard the idea if you like it. But, it is off concerning Ginos recipe.
they flavor it in the following:
1. the oil (mix of two different oils)
2. the special flavor enhancer
3. and the fact that the dough used to make a pizza has been made 2 days prior to being used----thus it gets fermented in the frig while sitting stretched in a pizza pan for 2 days. Or, if you want the same effect, let it sit out one day out of the frig. The consistency of the crust will be different if it was in the frig or out of the frig. Put it in the frig to be more consistent with Ginos.
Also, their pan is made out of a certain type of steel. It is seasoned black.
so, make some guesses about which oil you think they use. and percentages of the two.
also, there are three ingredients to the flavor enhancer. One of them is yellow dye # 5. One is sugar. What is the other one?
Last, Gino's East does not use corn meal. There is one Ginos east franchise that does. And, Ginos on Rush does. However, corn meal is very bitter and ALL of the recipes given that tell you to use corn meal all result in a bad taste that is WAY off. Only use 1 tablespoon of corn meal to 1 pound of Bread flour (yes bread flour because of the gluten content)
I prefer NO corn meal. |
