Pizza Dough Ingredients

1/4 c Warm water	1 ts Sugar
1 pk Yeast	1 1/4 c Lukewarm water
4 1/4 c Sifted flour	2 tb Olive oil
1 ts Salt

Instructions for Pizza Dough

Pour warm water into a large bowl, sprinkle in yeast and stir to dissolve. Mix in 2 cups of the flour, the salt and the sugar. Add lukewarm water and oil and beat until smooth. Mix in remaining flour and knead on a lightly floured board until elastic. Shape into a ball, turn into a greased bowl and turn over greased side up. Let rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour. Divide Dough in half; freeze half in an airtight container or plastic bag if youre making only one pizza. Form dough into a ball and let rest 5 minutes. Roll out into a disk. Add desired toppings and bake pizza at 425 degrees for 15 minutes. Recipe By:The Doubleday Cookbook Serving Size: 16 Preparation Time: 0:00 Use a baking stone for pizza and use it for freeform loaves of bread. Too bad you got the circle instead of the tiles in a tray, but itll work the same way. What you want to do is preheat it in the oven at about 500 degrees for an hour, then lower the oven temperature to the correct one for cooking right before putting the stuff in. What it does is retain a good deal of heat, making things cook nice and crusty on the outside and moist and chewy on the inside. Its perfect for pizza dough because it means you have a crust that doesnt flop over or get saturated with the sauce, but is still moist and bready on the inside. Even better than your favorite pizza place. Let me see if I can pull up the dough recipe. Also remember to use no more than 1/2 cup tomato sauce. It doesnt look like enough, but its just right. Some people like to put the cheese on first, or the cheese on between the sauce and the toppings, but I like to put the cheese on last so its gooey all over everything! * From the Polka Dot Cottage, 1-201-822-3627, NJs BBS for Homemakers!
