Uncle Charlie made pizza for us this weekend while I was making the pumpkin cupcakes. It's his specialty and he takes great pride in the dough. He's tried a ton of different recipes.
But E. gets a kick out of kneading too. This is another Ina recipe. The honey makes the dough taste so delicious. I think adding fresh dill to the dough would also be a nice touch. We split the dough in half and freeze it, vs. into six small balls.
We browned sausage, fennel seeds and caramelized some onions. This is our favorite pizza topping combo. Toss the fennel seeds in first, then the onions and sausage. The heat opens up the flavor of the fennel.
We registered for all this fun pizza making stuff at Williams-Sonoma and use it all the time. The Pizza Peel is great for a cheese platter too. Load it up and make a little lip for the crust and brush with olive oil. Use corn meal on the peel before you add the pizza dough. Shake it so you know the pizza will slide off before you open your hot, hot oven.
Invest in a pizza stone. It makes a difference. You can bake scones right on the stone too.
This is the most rewarding comfort food and a great cost saver too.
