Baxcana’s Supreme Pizza
The Perfect Pizza (for our house…)
I’ve tried a lot of different pizza crusts, and toppings. We’ve eaten a lot of soggy (but tasty) pizza lately.
This one was the winner.
I was using yeast that had to rise for the other crusts, and while that made me feel like I was REALLY making the dough, it didn’t taste as good as the crust using Fleischmann’s® Pizza Yeast. I bought a jar of it, therefore, you should know one package is equal to 2.5 teaspoons. The great thing is, you don’t have to wait an hour for your dough to rise, you mix it, shape it and top it! Simple! I can’t wait to make it with our grandkids! Or better yet, I’ll watch them make it.
Tips:
Put a fair amount of sauce on, and don’t put it to the end of the crust. If you get a leak you get a soggy crust.
Sprinkle pizza seasoning over sauce, then add some parmesan cheese and a bit of shredded mozzarella.
Add the meat next, on this one I used what you see in the picture. 2 kinds of salami, and cooked crumbled bacon from Costco. Put the meat on first, then the veggies, then the final topping of cheese.
Dip all your fingers in a bowl of olive oil, then rain it all over your pizza. It’s fun! Sprinkle a bit more pizza seasoning over the top along with a pinch of Kosher salt.
Oven needs to be HOT. Preheat to 450 degrees part way through your pizza making so it’s ready when you are. Middle rack for about 16 minutes. 1 more minute or so with Broiler on if you want it really bubbly and browned. Don’t take your eyes off it.
**** DO NOT SLICE PIZZA ON CAST IRON****
(you’ll take the seasoning off)
Slide it onto a cookie sheet, slice and slide it right back into your Cast Iron. Serve in CI, it will keep your pizza hot!!
