I need a pizza dough recipie!!?!
Answers: I have been using frozen bread dough and a dough recipe from a cook book, they just don't produce the result that I want. I'm looking for one that will get crispy, not hard and one that can be used for both thick and thin crust. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
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
You can by the pizza dough from your local pizza parlor for about $1 for a roll which will make you a lg pizza. try there first then refer to food network website for more recipes.
Have you tried using plain flour and making dough that way? I want to learn how to make homemade pizza too.
This is a great site for recipies: http://www.videojug.com/film/how-to-make...

Method:
1. mix salt and yeast in bowl with water.
2. get a biger bowl put in flour and make a well in it.. pour in the water mix and oil.
3. mix with a wooden spoon then need for apx 3 mins.
4. restin a warm place covered for 30min. preheat oven to 220 degreesC.
5.roll out dough and place on an oiled tray. spread the tomato toping on top add whatever you want and bake for 20mins...
nellie is right on.. only add that i would make it the night before .. cover and fridge it til next day...
let it warm to room temp and then mold it to the size u want
I make this without a recipe, so here goes:
Mix 1cup hot water with a packet of yeast. Let stand 10 minutes until foamy.
Mix 2 cups flour, 1tsp salt and add to the yeast water. Pour 1tbsp olive oil over it all and mix that in until it forms a shaggy ball.
Knead on a floured board for 10 minutes, until you have a soft dough. Sprinkle with a little flour if the dough is sticking. I usually end up adding about 1/2 to 1 cup of extra flour during kneading.
Now, tuck under the edges and lay the dough on a flat dinner plate that has olive oil on it, slick a little oil over the top of the dough and cover with plastic wrap. Leave enough space that the dough can expand under the plastic. leave one hour in a warm place.
Now, take the expanded dough, and put it, exactly the way it is, onto your pizza pan. Use your fingers to gently push the dough outward so it fills the pan.
Brush with a little more olive oil, then put your ingredients on. Don't use too much sauce....if you like the flavor of sauce, make sure it is thick.
Another secret....turn your oven up as high as it'll go...to at least 450 or 500, and preheat it at least 1/2 hour. Put the pizza in on the LOWEST rack you can muster (but not on the oven floor!).
Keep an eye on the pizza. Baking times vary.
Enjoy.
Pizza Dough II
PREP TIME 20 Min
COOK TIME 30 Min
READY IN 2 Hrs
INGREDIENTS
* 1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
* 1 tablespoon white sugar
* 2 1/2 cups warm water (110 degrees F)
* 2 tablespoons olive oil
* 1 tablespoon salt
* 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
* 5 1/2 cups bread flour
DIRECTIONS
1. In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in the warm water. Let sit until creamy; about 10 minutes.
2. Stir the olive oil, whole wheat flour, salt and 4 cups of the bread flour into the yeast mixture. Mix in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Lightly oil a large mixing bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and put in a warm place to rise until doubled in volume; about 1 hour.
3. Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into three equal pieces and form into rounds. Cover the rounds and let them rest for about 10 minutes. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
4. Use a rolling pin to roll the dough into the desired shape, cover it with your favorite toppings and bake at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for about 20 minutes or until the crust and cheese are golden brown.
Note: I have not made this recipe yet, but while reading the reviews I noticed many people having trouble ending up with a soggy crust and overcooked toppings. To avoid this, you must work with a pizza stone and a pizza peel. Place the stone in your oven, preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Allow the pizza stone to heat for 30 minutes at this temperature. Meanwhile prepare your pizza on your floured pizza peel (be sure to give your pizza crust a little shake on the peel prior to putting on your toppings so that you can add more flour if necessary - doing this will ensure that it will slide off easily onto the stone ). Once you are sure your pizza will slide off easily, top it however you want and then slide it very carefully onto the stone in the oven. Heating the stone for 30 minutes prior to baking the pizza will ensure a thoroughly cooked crispy pizza crust. Watch your pizza very carefully as it will cook fast at this temperature.
these people who cook for 4... 3 1/2 cups of flour!!!!!!!!!!wow
I use
1 cup (rounded) flour
1 cup yeast prepared (all that 95 - 150 hot water stuff)
a dash of salt and 1Tbl oil
(I wonder if I used miniral oil would it soften my stool??? Hummm)
I add 1/2 the yeast....
mix,,,, it is sticky,,, add flour,,,ooops too much,,, 'sprinkle' some yeast
as the mess starts to - - stay together and roll around,,,
flop it on your board covered with some more flour
and toss (kneed) pound, hit, crush, Ooops sorry....toss it some more,, folding it ,,, until the sticky is gone.....
you got your pizza dough,, Yeeeeaaaa ,,, streach it,, let it rise,,, keep it overnight ,,,IDK
I let it rise about an hour... I don't want to miss Bill Oreilly at 5:00..Other wise 2 hours,, I hate Allen Comles and watch the game channel
Ok I'm silly ?
It makes a +-10inch and>>> I have an 8 inch nonstick fry pan with a broken handle to make my deep dish...I give it an hour longer to rise ,,,. but ; ; I only do that on weekends ,,

Thank You I had a good time
HA
2 cups flour
1 cup warm water
2 tablespoons yeast
2 TBL sugar
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 tsp. salt
mix the yeast in 1 cup of warm water with the sugar.
In a food processor mix the rest of the dry items and buzz.
Add the yeast water mixture mix and the oil and buzz.
while machine is running add the remaining water until you form a dough ball. It can be a little sticky.
Turn out and knead in to a ball with some additional flour. Put in a greased bowl.
Let rise and punch down in about an hour.
When ready to make pie, preheat over to 500 degrees.
Add your favorite topping.
The ones I used today were: peppers, sausage, meatballs, ricotta grated cheese and fresh basil. If you use fresh basil put it on aver the sauce and under the cheese so it doesn't burn.
It's not hard to do and you will like the results and will do it weekly then 2X week and then more than that.
2 cups all purpose flour Oven 400 Degrees
1 tbsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2/3 cup water
1 tbsp cooking oil
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare pizza pan by spraying with non-stick cooking spray. Combine dry ingredients in mixing bowl. Add liquids and stir to incorporate dry ingredients. Knead dough by hand 6-8 times on a lightly floured surface. Roll dough thinly. Place rolled dough onto prepared pizza pan, add favorite sauce and toppings. Bake at 400 degrees for 18-20 minutes, depending on crust thickness.
