Neapolitan style pizza made with baguette dough


OK, so I know it sounds like an oxymoron, but it works! Baguette dough is one of my favorite pizza doughs because it is easy to handle, has just a hint of sweetness, and bakes up as a sturdy, crisp, and thin platform (no sagging) that works no matter whether the topping be light or heavy. I baked this in the oven on my new stone (I didn't want to risk repeating last Friday's BBQed-beyond-all-recognition pizza). I had planned to top it with some pesto and fresh basil, but the pesto had molded and the basil, shriveled, so I just went with sauce and fresh mozzarella.

No fair!

I'm fermenting baguette dough right now, with every intention of making baguettes tomorrow! But I just got back from the Italian deli with salami and canned San Marzano tomatoes. All I would need is some fresh mozzarella. I've got everything else. 

Arrrrrrgh!

Thanks, everyone, for the nice comments! It was just a plain pizza, but I really do enjoy the baguette crust.
