We made a Crunchy Crust Pizza in the Ooni Karu 12 Pizza Oven with homemade pizza dough.  Check out the cook in this video here!

To get a nice crusty, crunchy pizza crust you just have to do the following:

• The heat on the stone ideally should be 420c to 430c  in the centre.
• Once the heat on the stone reaches 430c in the centre of the pizza stone your pizza is ready to be cooked.
• Ensure that you have a good strong wood flame and keep that flame going before you launch your pizza.  I normally add some logs just before my pizza is launched into the oven but for a slow cook I prefer to cook with a smaller/weaker wood flame.
• You have the option of cooking with the door on or off or both.  Cooking with the door off takes longer but will ensure that the crust cooks slower. This is how  to develop a lovely crunchy, crust!
• For this pizza, I cooked with the door on and off. The advantage to using the door like that is you get a nice top-cooked pizza as well as a crunchy crust!
