We made this last night, husband put the dough together while I shopped for the other ingredients and caramelized the onions for our super thin crispy crust pizza. We followed the instructions, let it rise for just about two hours; then he rolled it out cracker thin on the granite, slid it onto the piping hot pizza stone. Baked it on the 500 degree temp for two, three minutes then added caramelized onions, cooked prosciutto and shredded Italian cheese. Back in the oven for three minutes, quickly sliced then slid off onto a cooling rack then eaten. Delicious!
