Sausage-and-Olive Pizza with Capers and Pecorino Sardo

1. Stage

Set a pizza stone on a rack in top third of oven. Preheat oven to 500 degrees F for at least 45 minutes. Meanwhile, remove dough ball from refrigerator and let stand for 20 minutes.

2. Stage

Working on a floured surface and using your fingers, press and stretch dough ball out to a 10-inch round, working from center toward edge; avoid pressing on outermost edge. Transfer dough to a lightly floured pizza peel. Spread Perfect Pizza Sauce onto dough, making sure to leave a 1-inch border around edge, and top with crumbled sausage, olives, capers, oregano, and pecorino cheese.

3. Stage

Turn oven to broil for 5 minutes, then return it to 500 degrees F. Slide pizza onto pizza stone, opening and closing oven door as quickly as possible. Bake until bottom is lightly charred and toppings are bubbling, about 6 minutes for a chewier crust and 8 minutes for a crispier one; avoid opening oven door during baking.
