If you ever do a thin crust pizza, I suggest to put the preheat a pizza stone as close as possible to the top element at broil. This will make the pizza stone as hot as possible and the element as hot as possible also. Slide the pizza in for 3-5 min. Make the dough stlightly on the sticky side also.
This tries to replicate a wood stone oven which reaches temperature of about 6-700 degrees. It makes a nice colourful crust and the cheese melts and bubble as it should. At lower temperatures the crust is soaked and the vegetables kind of boils instead of broil.
Give it a try, I tell you! Thanks for asharing that tip. We learn so much from our readers! Mary @ KAF
