PIZZA DOUGH> can you share soem recipes on how to make a pizza dough? thanks!?

Answer 1

I use about 3/4 c. water to begin with for a nice sized pizza.

Proof the yeast in 1/4 c. of the water with 1/8 teasp. sweetener.

When it's all bubbly, add the rest of the water (1/2 c. more), 1 teasp. salt and begin mixing in some bread flour (high gluten) .

My recipe has no oil in it to make the crust crunchier and drier.

As you mix and knead the dough in the bowl it will become stretchy. A wetter dough will make a chewier crust, and more flour will make a dough that is more bread like and dry. Knead it outside of the bowl on a counter or table until it is nice and smooth. If you want to take it all the way to professional level, knead it until you see the surface "blister" when you are kneading it. The dough will tear a little along the surface from the bubbles stretching and opening up.

You only need to let pizza dough rise for about 10 minutes before you roll it out to the desired thickness, sprinkle semolina flour on the pan before you put the rolled out dough on and brush with olive oil all over the top and put on your desired toppings.

I bake mine at 450 degrees F. until the cheese I use begins to brown.

This will make enough dough for 2 smallish thin crust pizzas or one nice sized thick crust to feed 2-4 people depending upon what you serve with it. As a main course for average eaters it will feed 2-3 as a thick crust and 4-6 if you roll out 2 thin crusts.

Answer 2

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.

Answer 3

Makes 2 large thin crust or one pan style pizza:
1 pkg active dry yeast (1 Tablespoon)
3/4 cup plus 1 Tablespoon warm water (105 F-115 F)
2 cups All-Purpose Four (Or bread or high gluten flour)
1 tsp salt
2 tbs veggie shortening (or lard)
Dissolve yeast in the warm water and set aside. Stir in large bowl, flour and salt. Cut in shortening, or mix with hands until it resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in yeast water until dough ball forms and all flour is incorporated. Turn out of bowl onto lightly floured surface and knead just until smooth--4 or 5 turns, not minutes. Add about 1 tablespoon of oil to bowl and put the kneaded dough into bowl, turn over the dough ball so the top is coated with oil. Cover with plastic wrap, leaving a little air pocket at the edge. Let rise in draft free place, like microwave, for 45-60 minutes, or until doubled in size. Punch the dough down to remove the air. Spread onto greased pan (use veggie shortening, not oil) and top with your favorite toppings. Bake 20-25 minutes at 400 degrees F. (I set my gas oven at 425 degrees F and cook for 23 minutes for deep dish style.) This is easy to do, just read through the directions first. My daughter started making this when she was 13, so it's fairly simple to do.
