Pizza Dough step by step
In medium sized cup mix together warm water and sugar until it dissolves, then add yeast. Mix 2-3 times gently then let rest for about 15-20 min..
While yeast is activating in a Large mixing bowl, Flour and salt (this is where you can be creative with what kind of dough do you want ie-pizza add garlic powder, thyme, oregano).
Once yeast has activated and has risen to the top of the cup or you see a yellow golden-ish foam on top of the water, add all wet ingredients leaving the yeast last. Mix in a "Cross" formation then an "X"..
Once all the ingredients are incorperated spread (Dust) flour onto a clean surface for kneading. Note: If mixture is too wet add more flour, if its too dry use the same cup you had for the yeast and add water from that cup..
Knead. For 10-15min.
Once formed into a nice ball of dough, dust flour on the bottome of the bowl(so the dough doesn't stick) place back to large mixing bowl.* Optional-brush the dough with oil.* Cover..
Quick Rise- Cover with a hot towel and let it rise for 30 min.
Slow Rise- Cover with plastic wrap, place in the fridge for 24 hrs.
After the rise process, scrape the dough onto a floured surface and divide the dough how you want per size. 1/2= 2 large 16"/18" pizzas. 1/4= 4 medium 12"/14" pizzas.
Bake on a pizza stone or 550°F for 7-10min Enjoy!.
