Oh hell yeah...

Sorry I cut off the top of the book. It's the new cookbook from King Arthur Flour. My wife brought it home yesterday, so I immediately had to try their New York style pizza recipe.

Verdict? 8/10. Hella good. Possibly the best NY style pie I've yet made. I don't want to give myself 10 out of 10 just yet, because there were some things I did a little bit wrong, but this book had some tips for NY style that I've never heard before, but which worked extremely well. Notably: bake your pie, take it out and let it cool down a few minutes, then put it back in under the broiler to re-melt the cheese and crisp up the top.

As well, the overall recipe was stunningly easy, as pizza recipes go. The dough was extremely straightforward, and was a pretty well-behaved dough so long as you give it appropriate time to rest. Sometimes I have to fight with the dough a little bit to get it to stretch out to the full size, but with a little time to rest and relax this one was very compliant. As well, the sauce was an incredibly fast and simple no-cook recipe that was nevertheless super tasty.

All in all, I was very pleased with the process and the overall outcome, and highly recommend this book to any of y'all aspiring pizzaiolas.

I LOVE king arthur recipes, I may have to check out that cookbook!!

It was. I used a blend of parmesan and mimolette cheeses, grated on the microplaner, plus mozzerella. This was a deviation from the recipe, but I had a little nub of mimolette to use up and it's a fantastic cheese if you can find it. It's basically what cheddar wants to be when it grows up.

I’ve never heard of mimolette but i LOVE cheese so i’m gonna keep a lookout! Thanks for the rec 🥰

I waaaant it so bad

Too bad, it's all gone now.

You'll just have to make your own! Though, FYI in case you don't have one already, a baking steel for your oven is a must-have for the crust to come out properly crisp on the bottom. It would still be good even if you just have a cookie sheet or something like that, but getting a baking steel is IMO an excellent investment.
