If you want it to be proper deep dish, you should use a deep dish dough…I don’t think regular dough would be quite the same.

wondering if you, or anyone else, has tried their own crust recipe to make deep dish in this manner? i’m sure the potato adds a wonderful flavor to the crust, but was wondering if any ole crust would work or does it need to be a certain recipe?

I’m not sure if you’ll see this comment, but here’s a restaurant trick for getting dough to NOT bounce back (rather to stick to where you want it) – use vegetable shortening instead of oil. It’s miraculous! Helps to give the crust a little satisfying crunch too. Nice recipe!

I think that would give the crust a weird color and flavor. If I remember right, Cooks doesn’t even recommend using other white potatoes besides russets.

Any idea what would happen if you only had a sweet potato on hand? Would that still work?
