Print Recipe

Ingredients
  • 1 tsp olive oil .
  • 2 c high gluten flour .
  • 3/4 c warm water (about 105 degrees F.) .
  • 4 tsps sugar .
  • 1/2 tsp salt .
  • 1 tsp active dry yeast

Directions
  • Step #1 Place the warm water, salt, sugar.
  • Step #2 yeast & olive oil in a bowl & mix well.
  • Step #3 Add flour & begin kneading as soon as possible, using a mixing machine or by hand (I use my Kitchenaid with the dough hook).
  • Step #4 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.
  • Step #5 After kneading about 15 mins by hand or a few mins in the mixer, form the dough into a ball & let it rise, covered or In a large-ish plastic freezer bag about two hrs at about room temp.
  • Step #6 Gently deflate & put in the fridge up to 24 hrs before freezing or baking (the longer you chill the dough, the chewier the crust--I like it chilled only briefly).
  • Step #7 Your dough is now ready to be used in your favorite way.
  • Step #8 I roll out mine out very thin & bake this at the highest temperature the oven will allow.
