Note
Recipe Notes & Tips
- For a richer and more enhanced crust flavor, it’s recommended to brush a garlic-infused butter or oil over the crust before baking.
Also, sprinkling the crust with seasonings such as garlic salt/powder, Italian seasoning, parmesan cheese, or fennel seeds, will add beautiful flavors to your pizza
- Flour can make or break your pizza recipe! Bread flour containing gluten will allow you to stretch your pizza dough more easily.
You can also use all-purpose flour. However, you’ll have to extend your kneading time to eliminate the dough's gluten
- If you’re trying to get the perfect Domino’s pizza replica, use flat pizza disks with holes to ensure a hotter pizza that won’t stick to the pan. However, any pizza pan will do the trick
- Cheese is a massive part of any pizza and is down to personal preference. However, Domino’s uses 100% mozzarella – the most common and traditional cheese – as it melts evenly without going oily or lumpy.
Cheeses such as cheddar, havarti, provolone, and gorgonzola also work great for pizzas
- Finally, when you’re looking for a sauce that mimics the delicious Domino’s version, we recommend using a robust tomato sauce. This sauce can be compared to Marinara sauce, meaning it should be sweet, flavorful, and thick.
Enjoy your pizza!
