My True Blue Pizza Dough

Finding a pizza dough recipe that comes through for you week after week is not an easy feat. This recipe has been a staple with me! It accompanies every Friday night pizza night, being the perfect base for my pizza toppings. It is complete perfection.

I do have to tell you that, never for the life of me can I remember this recipe. It is so simple, yet time and time again I crack open the big black book for this one.  UPDATE: I KNOW THIS RECIPE BY HEART… I dare you test me! I KNOW IT!!! Woo!!!! About time huh?

A pizza stone is not a must but if you have one, use it. It bakes the pizza evenly. 

The double zero flour gives it that crispy crust but soft bite. It is the perfect base for your toppings!

I have three today. 

Elevate this pizza dough by adding an infused olive oil. For instance orange, tuscan herb and truffle. A nice hint of flavor in every bite. 

A tip I learned from ‘Salt and Pepper’ is that if you pop the pizza dough in the oven, turn only the oven light on, you will have a beautiful rise to the dough. I have tried this and it is a golden tip!

Use parchment paper on your pizza stone, it saves the stone from becoming rancid. The parchment paper also helps for easy transfer of the pizza to and from the hot stone.
