Detroit-style pizza
This recipe is based on this serious eats recipe.
The dough can be rapidly proofed by placing it in a metal bowl and placing it on top of a sous-vide bath set to 36C. The dough will sufficiently rise in about 45 minutes. The complexity of flavor of a slowly-risen dough is emulated with garlic and onion powder.
