As I have mentioned in the past I make Pizza at home quite a bit. Making pizza at home in a creative fashion can be fun for everyone. Try this one and you will soon be telling all your friends how surprisingly wonderful it is. You can buy the dough at your local grocer or make your favorite recipe. I like to make the Pizza dough the day before and cold rise it. This will yield a crispy crust that does not get those huge bubbles in it.
A few tips for making pizza at home and getting Pizzeria results;
Proof twice; Double proofed dough cooks up crispier
Cook it on pizza stone and turn the oven as high as possible the hotter the oven the more flavor your pizza will have.
Less is more with the toppings; Too many toppings on the pizza will give you an undercooked crust and mushy toppings with burnt cheese
Check the bottom of the crust before removing it from the oven; your looking for a golden brown color you can’t judge doneness by looking at the top
Use a rolling pin; Tossing the pizza in the air is nothing more than a show, a rolling pin will push air pockets from your dough and allow you to get a desired thinness.
Use quality ingredients
For the Bacon and Egg Pizza
Roll out your warm dough with a rolling pin
Place on to a Pizza peel lightly floured so it doesn’t stick ( you can start it on a pizza pan or screen if you’re not comfortable with this step)
Brush melted Butter on the crust
Spread 8 oz shredded sharp cheddar evenly
Make 5 spots for your eggs by moving the cheese out of the way kind of like making a mould
Crack the eggs in the moulds
Top with your favorite bacon and fresh chopped chives or scallion
