As an avid homemade pizza maker (sourdough), I have to shout out how absolutely fabulous 2 of this recipe's techniques are, and how much they will improve your pizza: (1) Using a cast iron pan for baking the pizza, and (2) the long refrigeration for the pizza dough. I use both techniques in my sourdough pizza baking, and they turned my pizza from great to beyond fabulous. The long refrigeration adds flavor to the dough, and is so convenient for having dough on hand. In fact, I always have pizza dough in the fridge! And the cast iron pan provides superior heat distribution and an evenly baked crust. I would also recommend purchasing a 14" cast iron pizza pan for use when making a 'traditional' pizza crust.
Great blog post and wonderful Recipe of the Year for 2020!
