White Pizza - Authentic Italian Ingredients

4 3/4 c White flour	TOPPING
2 c Warm water; 105 degrees	Olive oil
3 ts Dry yeast	Coarse Kosher salt (sea
1 ts Salt	Dried rosemary

Instructions for White Pizza - Authentic Italian

Dissolve yeast in the warm water. Add yeast/water mixture to 3 cups of the flour. Mix, adding regular salt and olive oil a little at a time. Add the rest of the flour bit by bit until the dough "feels right". Turn dough onto a floured board and knead; adding more flour if necessary to keep the dough from sticking to your fingers. Put the dough in a greased bowl and rotate to distribute the grease all over the dough. Let rise until about double in size (approx. 2 hours). Remove the dough, punch down and roll out on the floured board to a thickness of 3/8 to 1/2 inch (make it any shape you desire). Put dough in a pan or cookie sheet. With a pastry brush, paint liberally with additional olive oil. Use your thumb and 2 fingers to make dimples over the entire surface. Sprinkle the Kosher sea salt and rosemary over the surface of the dough. Let rise a little more. Bake at 375 degrees F for about 25 minutes. When done, paint liberally again with olive oil. Makes 1 white pizza.
