Does anyone use any seasonings in your dough.... such as garlic, basil, oregano, etc.?

I am contemplating adding some fresh herbs to my dough, I already use fresh herbs in the toppings, but wonder about adding this to the dough for a different effect.

I only use fresh herbs that I grow in my garden. I find the flavor is much different.

I add garlic powder & oregano to my dough. I also use 25% semolina flour to make my dough

Hi 007, what does the semolina do for your dough? What are the differences between with and without?

Thanks

It changes the texture like using cornmeal in a Chicago deep dish type pizza, scroll down to chicago style on the link

On the above sites forums I don't remember where but in a post from a member living in Italy he said either Sicilian or maybe Neapolitan types use 100% simolena flour I'm not sure which.

ok well, i work at papa murphys, and i know we are a chain, but i get to make my own pizza there so yea, i made our new herb chicken mediterannian or whatever haha, anywho i put our zesty herbs all over the crust before i put cheese or the olive and garlic sauce mix. it was great! the crust was very good to eat. my family agreed taht it was great also. so its worth a try, you can also buy zesty herbs at your local papa murphys. so good luck! thanks

Tony:

Is that the "take and bake" place where you pick it up, take it home and bake it yourself?

There are places where you can go and make your own wine; there are places where you can brew your own beer; there are places you can pick up a pizza to bake yourself. What a country!

I'm thinking a place where you could actually make the pizza, and combine the other two..... wonder how that would sell?

Somebody will probably pick up the idea and make a fortune....
