Dominick'S Basic Pizza Dough

Be the first to rate this recipe

Ingredients

  • 2 cups high gluten flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4 teaspoons sugar
  • 3/4 cup warm water (about 105 degrees F.)
  • 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Place the warm water, salt, sugar. yeast and olive oil in a bowl and mix well.
  2. Add flour and begin kneading immediately, using a mixing machine or by hand (I use my Kitchenaid with the dough hook).
  3. Dough has proper moisture content when it is sticky to the touch but does not stick to your hand--add extra water or flour to achieve this.
  4. After kneading about 15 minutes by hand or a few minutes in the mixer, form the dough into a ball and let it rise, covered or in a large plastic freezer bag about two hours at room temperature.
  5. Gently deflate and refrigerate up to 24 hours before freezing or baking (the longer you chill the dough, the chewier the crust--I like it chilled only briefly).
  6. Your dough is now ready to be used in your favorite way.
  7. I roll mine out very thin and bake at the highest temperature the oven will allow.
