Emmett’s Thin Crust with Black Olives & Fresh Tomatoes
Emmett's
Named for its Chicagoan owner, Emmett’s prides itself on being the only deep-dish pizzeria in NYC, with a cozy neighborhood vibe and a killer wine and beer program.
There’s no need or reason for the butter. This recipe has too much oil for a cracker-thin crust–you need 1 Tablespoon, tops, if any at all. No need to refrigerate (although you can). Roll out the dough as thin as possible–as paper-thin as you can make it. A good tip for homemade pizzas is to par-bake the crust a bit first.
Yes! I par bake for 6 minutes. Make several and freeze them un topped. I saute onions, peppers and mushrooms in a bit of oil for toppo, under a smart of pesto and then hm tomato sauce.
Smear!
