How to Make Dirty Your Deep Dish Pan Pizza
- **Crust Prep:** Boil the quartered potato in 1 quart of water until tender (10-15 minutes). Drain, cool, and rice or grate it. Measure out 1 1/3 cups of the riced potato and discard the rest.
- **Activate Yeast:** In a food processor, combine flour, yeast, and salt. With the motor running, add the water and process until a shaggy ball forms. Add the riced potato and 2 tablespoons of olive oil; process until smooth and slightly sticky.
- **First Rise:** Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and let rise in a 200°F (93°C) oven (turned off after 10 minutes of heating) for 30-35 minutes, or until doubled.
- **Prepare Pans:** Oil two 10-inch cake pans with 2 tablespoons of olive oil each.
- **Shape the Dough:** Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Divide in half and pat each half into a 9-inch round. Place each round in an oiled pan, cover, and let rest for 10 minutes.
- **Second Rise:** Pull the dough up the sides of the pans to form a 1-inch lip. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes, or until doubled.
- **Pre-bake Crust:** Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C) with a pizza stone or baking sheet on the lowest rack. Prick the dough with a fork. Reduce oven temperature to 425°F (220°C) and bake for 5-10 minutes, until lightly browned.
- **Add Toppings:** Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce, then dollop pesto and ricotta (if using). Add your desired toppings.
- **Bake and Brown:** Bake on the pizza stone or baking sheet for 10-15 minutes, until the cheese melts. Move to the top rack and bake for another 5 minutes, until golden brown.
- **Cool and Serve:** Let cool for 5 minutes before carefully sliding the pizza onto a cutting board. Slice and serve immediately.
