i was so disappointed with this crust that i joined the site just to review it. there were so many great reviews, but, as with Chef #771965, i was totally bummed out with the consistency of the finished product. the dough stretched out nicely and i thought i was going to get a great thin crust pie, but it turned out grainy, salty and dry instead of crispy and bready. i wasted some high-quality (and expensive!) toppings, so my frugality will force me to eat it against my better judgement. i recommend that future foodies don't waste your time, though. back to boboli for me if i'm pressed for time!

Very disappointing recipe. I have made other pizza crusts in the past but I didn't have any yeast on hand so I thought I'd give this a try. The 4 star review is puzzling to me. The dough is waaaaaaay too salty & just crumbled apart. I followed the instructions to a "T" except I used all of the dough to make one large pizza. I will NOT use this recipe again. The salt alone makes it inedible. Such a shame to waste good ingredients! My search continues for a good crust recipe.

I actually liked this recipe after i tweaked it a little. If you use 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of sugar instead of the 1 teaspoon salt called for the taste is much better. I personally took it and rolled it into two flat bread pizzas instead of round and they came out perfect. I also used vegetable oil instead of salad oil and skipped the oiling the dough step.

Great recipe when you want to use up some basic household ingredients. I've made it several times, baked in the oven and grilled on an outdoor barbeque. Really nice results with both methods. I will say this, I tried to replace the white flour with whole wheat and I was not so impressed. So, I've been making it with half white flour, half whole wheat. I also use skim milk and canola oil. I leave out the second 2 tablespoons of oil altogether. I prefer thin, crispy crust, so I roll the dough out and bake it for 8 minutes. Then, I roll it out again and add my toppings before putting it back in the oven. I recommend dicing up some chicken breast with barbeque sauce and making barbeque chicken pizza . BBQ sauce topped with the chicken, 2 oz of mozzarella, and scallions.

Excellent! I normally leave half the pizza dough and just eat the topping, this time I ate the lot! As with all recipes you will need to improvise, I used our blender to get everything together, then I worked the rest by hand. It needs to be pliable, not sticky and you need to use less salt - if you don't like salt - olive oil instead of salad oil. We have a pizza stone which really helps to make the base crispy, but you shouldn't really need one.
