In a strong stand mixer fit with the dough hook, add water, butter, yeast, and sugar. Mix thoroughly until yeast has fully dissolved.Add flour and salt. Mix on low until most of flour and water mixed,and then continue kneading for 10 minutes. Dough will be loose and scrappy in the

first and will ultimately form a compact ball. There is no raw flour or remaining crumbs in bowl.

Dough will be slightly dry and dense. Place dough ball into a large bowl and close the meeting with the plastic wrap. Let dough rise for 24 hours in refrigerator before use. Please note that I can not emphasize too importance of 24-hour ride time because really it is important that
the dough will develop a signature texture and, more importantly, the unique flavor! Do not skip this step!

You preheat the oven to 500 F about one hour before you plan to bake the pizza. Turn the dough out to a large surface and dust with flour. Using the weight rolling pin, roll dough to form a very thin 24-inch or larger circle. If You use the cutter pizza pan (recommended), dust the pan lightly with flour, place dough in pan and dock. Using a rolling pin to trim off the excess dough drooping over the sides of the pan. If you want to cook the pizza directly pizza on the stone (do not use the pan), then place the dough on the dusted pizzapeel, pier, and The Edge-fold more than 1 inch all the way around and pinch to top form the raised lip or rim.

Next, precook the crust for 4 minutes before adding any sauce or toppings. Remove crust from oven and pop any large air pockets that may have formed.

Add sauce, Mozzarella cheese shredded, and the toppings favorites. Continue baking, rotating the pan half way through cooking so that it evenly, until crust is just Brown and crisp, about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove a pizza from the oven and slide the pizza from the cooking pan to the large wire
cooling rack or cutting board. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before transferring to serve the pan. This step allows the crust to stay crisp when cools, others trapped steam will soften the crust. After a cold, use a pizza cutter slice of pie to cut and enjoy!
