The one pizza everybody agrees on. The only type of pizza that Americans and Italians make the same way (well, similar way at least). Mozzarella, tomato sauce, and basil. No more, no less. This will yield one large pizza.

Cooking InstructionsHide images

step 1

Flip a baking sheet upside down and put it in the oven. Turn the oven on to its highest temperature and preheat it for 30 minutes.

step 2

Flatten your Pizza Dough (12 oz) into a roundish shape by hand and continue with rolling pin.

step 3

Put a piece of parchment paper on the cutting board and spray it with oil. Put the flattened pizza dough on top of the oiled parchment paper.

step 4

Add the Tomato Sauce (1 cup), Tomato (1), Shredded Mozzarella Cheese (2 cups), and any additional herbs to the top of the dough, if desired.

step 5

Use the cutting board to transfer the pizza and parchment gently onto the hot baking sheet in the oven. Carefully use an oven mitt to pull a side of the parchment paper with the pizza out of the oven and onto the cutting board you used before.

step 6

Bake pizza for around 10-15 minutes or until cheese has melted and the crust has turned golden brown. Add some Fresh Basil (to taste) before serving.
