Pizza Dough Recipe

Hello to all Especially to those who leave a message in my post Pizza, Pizza. Some of you was asking for the pizza dough recipe, so here it is.

INGREDIENTS:

2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
2 teaspoon brown sugar
1 1/2 cups warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 1/3 cups all-purpose flour


DIRECTIONS:

1. In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast and brown sugar in the water, and let sit for 10 minutes.
2. Stir the salt and oil into the yeast solution. Mix in 2 1/2 cups of the flour.
3. Turn dough out onto a clean, well floured surface, and knead in more flour until the dough is no longer sticky. Place the dough into a well oiled bowl, and cover with a cloth. Let the dough rise until double, this should take about 1 hour. Punch down the dough, and form a tight ball. Allow the dough to relax for a minute before rolling out. Use for your favorite pizza recipe.
4. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (220 degrees C). If you are baking your pizza in a pan, lightly oil the pan, and let the dough rise for 15 or 20 minutes before topping and baking it.
5. Bake pizza in preheated oven, until the cheese and crust are golden brown, about 15 to 20 minutes. On my Pizza I use Alfredo sauce.

I hope you guys will have fun cooking!!!

Thank you for sharing this recipe.

I don't have any idea on how to make my dough. That is one of the reason I couldn't start my own pizza.

This brings up a good point -- a lot of people treat pizza crust as an afterthought.

That's a big mistake. The crust makes or breaks a pizza!
