Finally, at long last, I created my idea homemade pizza crust. I had three goals when I set out on my pizza making journey months ago.
1 – It needed to be crispy on the outside with a crackly “crunch” factor
2 – A light and chewy interior was paramount
3 – It had to be super simple to make
After much trial and error, this is THE crust, topped off with roasted potatoes, garlic and Boursin cheese.
I know it seems like carbs on carbs, and it is, but I promise, it’s utterly satisfying. The soft roasty potatoes add texture while silky slices of roasted elephant garlic add sweetness and loads of flavor. The additional magic in this pie is from the fresh Boursin cheese, melted beneath the other toppings. It’s a creamy, soft cheese mixed with garlic and herbs.
Sure, it’s a rather monochromatic pie, but what it lacks in color, it makes up for in flavor. But, a major, important part of this pizza equation is how it’s cooked. The BakerStone Pizza Oven Box fires up to 800F, giving you wood-fired style pies in the convenience of your own grill. Want to see how it works? Want to make your own homemade pizza crust?
