If you've ever made homemade pizza, you know the frustration of trying to get the darn thing off of your peel and onto your baking stone. It seems like no matter how much flour you use, that first slice always gets stuck. But don't worry, there's a fix.
The key to keeping pizza from sticking to your peel is all in the preparation. First, make sure your peel is dusted with semolina flour or cornmeal. This will create a barrier between the peel and the dough so that it won't stick. Second, stretch your dough out onto a lightly floured surface before transferring it to the peel. Again, this will help to keep it from sticking. And finally, if you're using a wetter dough, make sure to pre-bake it for a few minutes before adding your toppings. This will help to dry out the dough so that it doesn't stick when you try to transfer it.
So there you have it! A few simple tips to keep pizza from sticking to your peel and ruining your perfect pie.
