Chicago Style Pizza Preparation
The most difficult part of pizza construction is making the dough. Now that we have a bread maker (DAK) I decided to see if the dough could be made in the bread maker. Verdict: It works great! Makes two 10-inch deep-dish pizzas. Add the water/yeast mixture. Start the bread maker in Manual/White Bread mode. When the bread maker completes the fermentation and turns off, punch down the dough and let it rise a second time. Total time is approximately 4 hours. Divide the dough into two equal parts. Spread the dough in two 10-inch cake pans and up the sides. Cover the dough with slices of mozzarella cheese. DO NOT USE GRATED CHEESE! The cheese slices will melt into the dough when the pizza is baked and will provide a barrier from the toppings so that the crust will not get soggy. Drain two 28 oz. cans of Italian Style whole peeled pear tomatoes (we used Progresso) into a strainer or colander. Remove the ends of the tomaotes with a knife. Squish with fingers or chop the tomatoes with a knife into smaller pieces and drain off all of the juices. Be careful – they squirt. Be sure to press out all of the juices or else your pizza will get soggy. Place the tomatoes on top of the mozzarella. Add salt, chopped garlic, basil and oregano. Top your pizzas with any of the following: salami, green pepper, onions, sausage, pepperoni, olives, mushrooms, etc…. Dust the top the pizza with fresh grated parmesean or romano cheese. Bake for 35-40 minutes at 375F. >From: Bruce Hill From: Bread-Bakers Archives: ftp.best.com/pub/reggie/archives/bread/recipe Recipe By : Numero Uno Pizzeria NOTES : Several years ago the Frugal Gourmet had a show about the foods of Chicago. He gave out the recipe for the pizza dough used by the original Numero Uno pizzeria. We have made these pizzas many times and they are the best!
