I have been buying pizza dough from a local pizzeria, and using my Kettlepizza, with good results. For the amount of dough they give me, it usually results in too large a pizza for my stone, so I usually discard about 25% of the dough ball. Yesterday I forgot to do that, so I ended up with a thicker dough, on a similar-sized pizza. Looked like it was cooked to perfection, but the dough was very stiff and crunchy (not burnt ) on the outside. Meaning, if you held the edge of the crust of one slice in 2 fingers and held the slice out in front of you horizontally, it did not bend at all, stiff as a board. Biting into it was as crunchy on the outside as burnt toast (even though it was only lightly browned). Inside was very light and fluffy.
Was it because of the thicker crust? I also may have used a bit less sauce, which maybe resulted in a drier crust?
