The Inner Circle Kitchen Recipes also has a complete Classic Pizza recipe with a more recent crust recipe.
Here’s a recipe for pizza crust that you can actually hold in your hands.
That’s what we lose when we eliminate wheat: the viscoelasticity of wheat gluten, the quality that provides wheat’s food portability. It allows you to stuff a pita full of ingredients, hold a sandwich between your hands, deliver a slice of pizza into your mouth.
This recipe yields a pizza crust sturdy enough to hold in your hands. As written, it will make a 12-inch round pizza crust.
