    Makes 4 servings (1 very thin 12- by 8-inch pizza)

Ingredients

1 teaspoon hot water
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 lb fresh or thawed frozen pizza dough (not from a tube)
All-purpose flour for dusting

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 500°F.

    Step 2

    Whisk together hot water and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt until most of salt is dissolved, then whisk in 1 tablespoon oil.

    Coat dough lightly with flour, then stretch with floured hands on a floured surface into a 12- by 8-inch rectangle. Transfer dough to an oiled 15- by 10- by 1-inch baking pan, stretching dough to cover bottom of pan. Dimple dough by pressing your fingertips all over, then brush with oil mixture.
