I've tried to perfect my pizza making skills. Went to the kitchen supply store and purchased two pizza peels (one wood, one metal). I have two pizza stones and through trial and error I've figured out how to make the best homemade pizza right in your own oven.
It's so easy too. I usually use my lower oven for pizza baking needs and I keep two pizza stones in there.
After I preheat the oven to 500 degrees I start stretching out the dough. I used to roll it out with a rolling pin but with a little patience you can stretch and pull and press it into shape. Before placing the dough on a wooden pizza peel I cover it with course corn meal. This keeps the dough from sticking to the wooden peel as you slide it into the oven. I then top the pizza with a little sauce and toppings, slide in the oven for 5-8 minutes- you'll see the top starting to get brown and know it's time to take it out!
This system works so well that you'll have a crisp crust and your toppings will be nice and brown, yum!
