Pizza Dough Technique

Submitted by hungry hunky

"I make my own bread and pizza dough of all kinds. I was never satisfied with the pizza until I came across this simple technique. This is a simple dough. You can use your favorite recipe.The dough is so soft that I have a hard time shaping it by picking it up, so I press it into shape & cook it on a piece of oiled foil. Crispy bottom & very tender."
