Pizza Dough

1 (1/4-oz) package instant dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)
2 1/4 to 2 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour plus additional for kneading and dredging
1 cup warm water (105 - 115°F)
1 teaspoon salt

Whisk together yeast, 1 tablespoon flour, and 1/4 cup warm water in a measuring cup and let stand until mixture develops a creamy foam, about 5 minutes. (If mixture doesn't foam, discard and start over with new yeast.)

Stir together salt and 1 1/2 cups flour in a large bowl. Add yeast mixture and remaining 3/4 cup warm water and stir until smooth, then stir in another 1/2 cup flour. If dough sticks to your fingers, stir in just enough flour (up to 3/4 cup), a little at a time, to make dough just come away from side of bowl. (This dough may be wetter than other pizza doughs you have made.)

Knead dough on a lightly floured surface with floured hands, lightly reflouring work surface and your hands when dough becomes too sticky, until dough is smooth, soft, and elastic, about 10 minutes. Divide dough in half and form into 2 balls, then generously dust balls all over with flour, cover with bowls or dish towel and let rest 10 minutes. Shape into pizzas, prebake 5-7 minutes at 400ºF.

Dough can be allowed to rise slowly, covered, in the refrigerator for 1 day. Bring to room temperature before using.

Makes 2 (10-inch) pizzas.



Basic Pizza Dough

3 1/2 cups flour
1 cup warm water (between 95° and 115° F.)
2 T yeast (2 tablespoons, I like my dough a little yeasty. You can use less)
2 T honey
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 tsp. salt

By Hand

Pour warm water into a bowl. The water should be about 85 to 115° F. Test it with your hand. It should feel very warm, but comfortable. Add the honey and salt. Mix on low until well blended. Add the yeast and mix. Let this mixture sit for about 5 minutes. Add 1 cup of flour and the olive oil and mix until well blended. Add the rest of the flour (and any other additions) and mix well. The dough should turn into a ball. If the dough does not ball up because it's too dry, add water one tablespoon at a time until it does. If your mixture is more like a batter, add flour one tablespoon at a time. Adding water or flour as needed to get the right consistency will assure you always get a perfect dough. Just remember to do it in small amounts.

Once the dough is balled up, place the ball on a floured board and knead for about a minute. This builds the gluten which helps the dough to rise and become fluffy when cooked. Place the dough in a plastic grocery bag or a covered bowl and store in a warm, dry area to rise.

After about 45 minutes the dough should have about doubled in size. Show it who's boss and punch it down. That's right, give it a good smack so it deflates. Let it rise for another hour to an hour and a half. The dough is now ready to be rolled out. You can punch the dough down one more time if you want and wait another hour or two before rolling out. The choice is yours.

You're now ready for the next step: Rolling out the dough!

This dough can also be made in advance and refrigerated for a day or so, or even frozen. Be sure to let it come to room temperature before using.



Thin Crust Dough

Thin Crust Dough is probably the most widely known type of pizza dough and is usually used for traditional pizzas throughout Europe and in the United States.

Thin crust pizza bases are perfect for pizza lovers who prefer to taste more of the sauce, cheese and other toppings and don't want to be filled up too quickly. It's usual to make thin pizzas larger than thick based pizzas.


Ingredients Required

* 1 envelope of dry yeast
* 1/4 teaspoon of sugar
* 3/4 cup of lukewarm water
* 1 3/4 cups of unbleached plain flour
* 1/2 teaspoon of salt


Step by Step Procedure

1. Combine 1 envelope of dry yeast, 1/4 teaspoon of sugar and 3/4 cups of lukewarm water. Mix a little and let sit for 6-8 minutes.

2. Combine 1 3/4 cups of unbleached plain flour with 1/2 teaspoon of salt in a bowl or food processor.

3. Pour the water combination into the bowl (or food processor) and mix until ready to knead (around 30 second in a food processor). If using a bowl, mix with a spoon until you have a neat ball.

4. Prepare a lightly spinkled surface with flour. Turn out dough and knead for around 2-3 minutes. Lightly cover your finger tips with flour if the mixture is a little sticky.

5. Roll out by hand for a 12'' base.

6. Place in 12'' lighly oiled oven pan. Press out dough to form a slight lip.

7. Prepare and apply your sauce and topping or choice.

8. Cook in a pre-heated over (500F) for 8-12 minutes (times may vary based on different ovens. Fan assited oven will be quicker!).

9. Remove from oven, slice and share with your favourite friends and/or family members :)

Additional Information

* As stated above, fan assisted ovens tend to cook pizza's quicker than traditional ovens.

* You can usually reheat your pizza in around 5 minutes. But beware that it's not advisable to reheat pizzas with a meat topping.



Easy Pizza Dough Recipe
Ingredients Required

* 1 cup of warm water (105F)
* 3 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour
* 2 tablespoons of olive oil
* 2 teaspoons of honey
* 1 teaspoon of salt
* 1 teaspoon of yeast


Step by Step Procedure

1. Put warm water (80 to 110°F) into a bowl. Add salt and honey and mix with a spoon. Add yeast, mix and let it sit for about 10 minutes.

2. Gradually add flour and olive oil and start mixing.

3. When the mixture gets too heavy to mix, start kneading the dough with your hands.

4. Knead the dough until you have a smooth ball. If the dough cracks it is too dry. Add water bit by bit until if forms a nice coherent ball. If your doug feels more like batter, it is too wet and you need to add flour bit by bit. If you need to add water or flour, do it by small amounts.

5. Coat the dough with olive oil, place it in a large bowl and cover it with kitchen wrap or a grocery bag. Let the doug rise for about an hour at room temperature, then push it down again so it deflates. Let it sit for about another hour. If you want to use it the next day, put it in a refrigerator.

6. Put the dough on a lightly floured surface, put a bit of flour on top and make it into the shape of a pie by stretching it out from the center outwards. Use a rolling pin until the dough is about 1/4" thick. Punch some holes in the dough with a fork to let the air escape while the pizza is in the oven

7. Put on your pizza sauce of choice. Put on your favorite pizza toppings.

8. Bake the pizza in you oven at 400 - 450° F for about 20 to 25 minutes until the crust is light brown.

Additional Information

* You get better results when you use a pizza baking stone. The pizza stone should be preheated to 450F for an hour prior to baking, and should be placed in the middle of the oven.



Whole Wheat Pizza Dough

Ingredients Required

* 1 tablespoons granulated sugar or honey
* 1 1/4 cups warm water (110F)
* 1 (1/4 ounce) pack dry yeast
* 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
* 2 cups whole wheat flour
* 1 teaspoon of salt
* 1/4 cup olive oil




Step by Step Procedure

1. Dissolve sugar or honey in water and add yeast.

2. In a separate bowl, combine flours.

3. Allow to sit until the yeast foams slightly (about 5 minutes).

4. Combine 3 cups of the flour and salt in a bowl. Pour the yeast mixture and oil if you are using it.

5. Knead the mixture, gradually adding enough of the remaining flour mixture so that the dough is no longer sticky. Continue kneading until the dough is smooth and elastic (another 10-15 minutes by hand).

6. Shape dough into a ball and put in an large oiled bowl, turning the dough to coat it with the oil.

7. Allow to rise until doubled in size (45 minutes to 1 hours).

8. Punch down the dough and divide into 2 pieces. This will make two 12 inch pizzas.

9. Shape each portion into a 12" circle either by hand or with a rolling pin, stretching out as necessary to achieve a thin dough. For a lighter crust, let the dough sit for a half hour after shaping before constructing pizza and baking.

10. Spread sauce over crust and top with cheese and desired toppings.

11. Allow to rest in a warm location for 15 minutes.

12. Bake in a 475 degree oven until crust is golden, about 20 minutes.

The dough can be frozen in plastic freezer bags in one-crust portions. Important: Thaw in the refrigerator.



Sicilian Pizza Dough Recipe

Sicilian pizza dough has its toppings baked directly into the crust. An authentic recipe uses neither cheese nor anchovies. Pizza Hut's Sicilian Pizza, introduced in 1994, is not an authentic example of the style as only garlic, basil, and oregano are mixed into the crust.
Ingredients Required

* 1 1/2 cups of warm water (105F)
* 4 cups all-purpose flour
* 1 tablespoon of salt
* 4 tablespoons of olive oil
* 2 pkgs. active dry yeast


Step by Step Procedure

1. Combine yeast, 1/2 cup flour, and water in a bowl covered with plastic wrap. Allowrise for 15 minutes. Stir to deflate.

2. Add 2 cups of remaining flour with salt, 1 cup cool tap water, and oil. Mix thoroughly with a wooden spoon.

3. Add yeast mixture.

4. Mix in remaining flour.

5. Knead 15 minutes on a floured surface (10 minutes in a machine) until smooth.

6. Place dough in bowl dusted with flour and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise until doubled size (1 to 2 hours).

7. Punch dough down and put in ziploc bag in the refrigerator until ready to use.

8. Preheat oven to 500F.

9. Remove dough from refrigerator when ready to shape into crust.

10. Punch down dough and roll out on a lightly floured surface.

11. Lightly oil (olive) a 17 1/2" X 11 1/2" X 3/4" pan. Place dough in pan and push to stretch evenly leaving a lip up against sides of pan. Let rest for 10-15 minutes.

12. Spread sauce over crust and top with cheese and place desired toppings.

13. Bake in a 450 degree oven for 25 minutes, or until crust is golden brown.


Sicilian Pizza Dough

1 pkg Dry yeast
3 cups All purpose flour
1 tbsp Sugar
1 tsp Kosher salt
2 tbsp Non-fat dry milk powder
1 tbsp Butter -- at room temperature
1 1/4 cups Warm water

Place all ingredients into breadmaker in the order listed. Allow breadmaker to knead and let rise slightly before removing, approximately 20 to 25 minutes. Don't forget to remove the dough before the bake cycle starts.

I then remove the dough and place it on a lightly floured cutting board and cover with a clean moist towel to rise an additional 30 minutes or so before forming to the pizza tray.

NOTE: I use the DAK Autobakery on the white bread setting to make this dough.
