DOUGHS/BREADS
PIZZA DOUGH
This dough can be used for more than just the obvious – check out our
recipes for Sausage Bread or Broccoli Rabe Bread on pages 37 and 38.
Makes ¾ pound dough (two 9-inch crusts, or one
14-inch crust)
1. In a liquid measuring cup dissolve yeast and sugar in
warm water. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
2. Insert the chopping blade into the work bowl of the
food processor. Add the flour, olive oil and salt. With
the machine running on Low, pour the liquid mixture
through the feed tube as fast as the flour absorbs it.
Process until the dough cleans the sides of the work
bowl and forms a ball. Continue to process for 30
seconds to knead the dough. Dough may be slightly
sticky.
3. Lightly coat the inside of a large bowl with olive oil.
Add dough and turn to coat in oil and cover bowl
tightly with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place until
doubled in size, about 1 hour.
4. Place dough on a lightly floured surface and punch
down. Form into desired crust size(s) as directed by
appropriate recipe.
