New York Style Pizza Dough created by Meghan O

After I moved out of Manhattan I tried for a year to replicate the dough of some of my favorite pizza places. This is my favorite! The secret is not very much yeast and cold proofing. It does take a longer time to prep because of the cold proofing, but it's oh so worth it! This recipe can easily be doubled.
