I thought I was doing well enough with my Artisan no kneed
bread in 5 that I was ready to try a pizza with the dough. In the past I was
doing well with some store bought pizza dough. I could form a pretty good round
pizza by going around the dough and letting it stretch and using my knuckles to
stretch it. Then the grocery quit selling the dough.
With this dough I never could get a good start and ended up
just placing it on a stainless pizza pan and spreading it out with my palms.
After putting my toppings on I could not get it picked up with the peel so just
put the pan and all in on top of the griddle.
For my sauce I used Classico, the best store bought I have
found. I then put a generous amount of Mexican 4 cheese blend on. I topped it
with some Italian sausage, peppers and onions I had browned up and finally some
chopped fresh basil.
I had the oven and griddle preheated to 500 deg. It was
about 12 minutes when I took it out, thought it was done. Some of the crust in
the middle was not done enough but it was edible and did taste good. I served a
side of some coleslaw I made up. My wife and I both thought the crust, what was
done well was extra good. I will use the dough again for pizza but think I will
just form and bake on the pizza pan.
I will save the peel and cast iron griddle for bread.

Pizza's done, well almost!
