Description

Experience the authentic taste of pizzeria-quality pizza at home with this classic deep-dish recipe. The dough, enriched with olive oil and cornmeal, yields a sturdy, crispy crust that holds up to generous toppings. A simple yet flavorful sauce made from crushed plum tomatoes, garlic, and fresh basil provides a bright, acidic counterpoint to the rich mozzarella and savory meats. Perfect for weekend dinners or family gatherings, this recipe allows for endless customization with your favorite toppings. The high-heat baking ensures a golden, bubbly cheese layer and a perfectly cooked crust every time.

Directions

  1. Dissolve yeast in tepid water and let sit for 10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Add salad oil, olive oil, 3 cups flour, cornmeal, and salt to the yeast mixture.
  3. Knead the dough for 10 minutes until it starts to come together.
  4. Gradually add 2.5 cups of additional flour and knead for another 15 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  5. Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size.
  6. Preheat oven to 475 degrees Fahrenheit (246°C).
  7. Brush deep-dish pizza pans with olive oil and sprinkle lightly with cornmeal.
  8. Divide dough in half and press into pans, covering the bottom and up the sides.
  9. Let the dough rise in the pans for 15-20 minutes.
  10. Layer sliced mozzarella cheese over the dough.
  11. Spread crushed plum tomatoes over the cheese, draining excess liquid.
  12. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, chopped garlic, basil, and oregano.
  13. Add cooked sausage and sliced onions as desired.
  14. Top with Parmesan and Romano cheese mix.
  15. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the crust is golden brown and cheese is bubbly.
