A New York City staple, Grandma Pizza has its origins in the homes of America’s Italian ancestors. Baked in a large, square pan at high heat after a relatively short final proofing time, the crust is wonderfully crispy and denser/thinner than traditional Sicilian-style pizza. Preparing the dough the day before ensures a fresh-from-the-oven pie in less than an hour, once you're ready to bake and serve.

The second rise is key to the finished pizza’s texture; if baked too soon, the dough will be firm and too chewy.

After many attempts to replicate the experience of my favorite grandma pie, I finally settled on this one. Use your home kitchen and conventional oven for restaurant-quality results. With a few staple ingredients, you can have a pizza with a crisp, chewy crust and an authentic old-world taste.
