New York Style Pizza Dough

By junerodgers

New York style pizza is a style originally developed in New York City, where pizza is often sold in oversized, thin and flexible slices. It has a very thick outer crust and a thin middle and often has a rectangular shape. New York style pizza dough is traditionally hand-tossed and light on sauce. The pizza slices are usually eaten folded in half, because its size and flexibility can make it difficult to eat otherwise.
