    I made this for a friend and her 3-year-old daughter who doesn't like to eat. She ate two small pieces - which is a lot for this kid!

    You really have to be exact and not rush when making the dough. The first time I made it, I must've packed in the flour a little bit, and made the water too hot, because the dough was dry and then too tough and gluten-y after adding water and kneading. The second time, I used my candy thermometer to make sure the temp was correct, and scooped the flour into the measuring cup instead of dragging it through the bag of flour. Much better results!

    Though I prefer to use my stand mixer to knead, I found that I had to do a little bit of hand-kneading to start it off so that the warmth of my hands would make it come together well.

    So easy it's ridiculous, even to make the dough, and it tasted great... everyone loved it. Very fresh and you don't miss the sauce one bit.

    This was so easy, I don't know why I haven't been making my own dough for years! The only reviews I read that were negative, seemed to have problems with the dough rising. Hot tap water should be about 110 degrees unless you have your water heater set really high, and my grandmother taught me that if it feels hot on your finger it is warm enough for the yeast. Yeast feeds on the gluten in the flour as it rises, so it doesn't need sugar or honey. Try it, this was really good and very impressive looking.

    This pizza is so good, you won't even miss the sauce! The dough turned out so great! I only make 1 pizza at a time, and the other half of the dough freezes well. The salt adds such a wonderful flavor. I chop the basil instead of leaving it whole and use a little more than called for, but I don't put more on in the end. I LOVE THIS RECIPE! I highly recommend it.

    I have been making my own version of this for years. It's really good when tomatoes are in season. I also like to roast the garlic before I put it on. If your dough didn't turn out right, it could be because the water was too hot and killed the yeast, or because your flour was not fresh enough. Try again! Sometimes it takes a few times to get the knack of the dough.
