Basic Pizza Dough
Ingredients:
water, bottled, generic
leavening agents, yeast, baker's, active dry
salt, table
wheat flours, bread, unenriched
oil, olive, salad or cooking
Directions:
Measure out 1 3/4 cups warm water (it should be pleasantly warm on your wrist).
Sprinkle the yeast on top of the water and allow it to activate, about 10 minutes.
Put the salt and 2 cups of the flour into a food processor.
Pulse 5 times to blend.
Pour in the yeast and water and pulse 5 times.
Add the olive oil.
Add the remaining flour 1 cup at a time, pulsing and scraping the sides of the bowl until well blended.
As soon as the mixture is combined, dump it out onto a well-floured board and knead for 15 turns.
The dough will become smooth and elastic-like.
Place the dough in a greased bowl and turn to coat all sides.
Cover with plastic wrap or a tea towel.
Allow the dough to rise in a warm place for 45 minutes, until doubled in size, and then punch it down.
Divide it in half; each half will make 1 (12-inch) pizza.
You can make 2 pizzas, or freeze half the dough for another time.
Freeze the dough in a resealable freezer bag.
To thaw, remove the bag from the freezer and place in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
Roll the dough out while cold and then allow it to come to room temperature before adding toppings.
