Another Pizza Dough

An alternative pizza dough recipe.

Ingredients

  • 5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 3 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 ¾ cups water room temperature

Instructions

  • Dissolve the yeast in water and then combine all of the ingredients in a mixing bowl and stir. Once all of the ingredients have been combined, let dough rest for 5 minutes.
  • Stir dough again for 5 minutes. Add more water or flour, if necessary.
  • Divide the dough into 3 pieces. Place each piece in an oiled bag (for freezing) or container (for rising now). If you are not going to bake the dough today, you can freeze until the day before use, then thaw in fridge. If baking today, allow to rise in fridge and then for at room temperature for at least an hour or two before baking.
  • When ready to bake, preheat baking stones in oven or grill at 375˚F. Stretch dough into a circle and let rest 5 to 10 minutes. Stretch dough a little more after resting and top with meats and cheeses as desired. I used about 1/2 lb of cooked meat and 8oz of shredded cheese per pizza.
  • Bake on stones for 15 to 20 minutes, checking frequently and turning as necessary as ovens vary A LOT.
