Homemade Pizza Recipe

A while back I made a tutorial on how to make thin crust pizza. I have worked on this Homemade Pizza Recipe for years and am happy to share it.

Based on comments though, I decided to remake it. Now I make everything 100% by hand. I also show you how to work with a wet dough, knead dough, add tons of toppings and much more.

You’ll learn a great deal about baking in this one tutorial. I hope you like it
