    Hi,

    I have exhausted all the internet recipes for this one, I cannot find a sure fire recipe for the thin crispy base you can get from one of the very good italian restauraunts.

    Does anyone have a perfect pizza base recipe?

    I can cook pretty much any italian food, but this one eludes me.

    To get a really authentic pizza it's not just a recipe you need but a pizza oven!
