Preparation
Blend all mozzarella ingredients in a blender, scraping down the sides.
Place the mixture in a pot, simmer and stir continuously until thickened, about 5 minutes, then taste and adjust seasonings if needed.
Add yeast to warm water, add sugar, stir briefly, and let sit in a warm place.
In a large bowl, combine the remaining crust ingredients.
Add olive oil and the yeast mixture to the bowl and adjust consistency with additional flour or water if necessary.
Roll out the dough.
Line the edge of the dough with the cheese, leaving an inch border.
Fold the border over the cheese and tuck or fork it into the crust.
Add marinara sauce, toppings, and remaining cheese on top.
Bake at 350°F for 20 minutes.
