small feed tube; use medium pressure to slice. Stack the slices,
cut in half with a knife, and place in a heatproof bowl. Pour the
boiling water over the pepperoni; let sit for 15-20 minutes. Drain
the pepperoni, discarding the fatty water; rinse and dry the
pepperoni.
When the dough has risen, punch down and divide into 5 equal
balls. Let rest 10 minutes. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough
into rounds, 12 to 14 inches in diameter. Place on a baker’s peel
that has been sprinkled with corn meal, or on a perforated pizza
pan, a pizza screen or baking sheet without sides that has been
sprinkled with corn meal. Brush the edges with the olive oil, then
using an offset spatula, spread the pizza to 3/4 inch of the edges
with 1/2 cup of the tomato sauce. Resist the urge to use more
tomato sauce – it will make a soggy pizza; less is better. Divide
the cheeses and sprinkle over the pizzas. Arrange the pepperoni
evenly over the pizzas.
Carefully slide the pizza onto the stone (position the peel over
the back edge of the stone, and use a rocking motion to shake
and slide the pizza off the peel onto the stone), or place the pan
into the hot oven. Bake the pizza for 5 minutes, then rotate it
front to back for even baking. Bake for another 3 to 6 minutes,
until the pizza is bubbly, and the edges of the dough are golden
brown, puffed and crispy. Remove from the oven and let rest on
a rack for 2 to 3 minutes before slicing.

3
tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1
teaspoon kosher salt
1/2
