Pizza Dough



 
From Every Day with Rachael Ray
April 2007

MAKES ENOUGH FOR THREE PIZZA CRUSTS
Prep Time: 20 min (plus rising)





One 1/4-ounce packet active dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons) 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar 4 1/4 cups flour 1 1/2 teaspoons salt



1. Place 1 1/2 cups warm water in a medium bowl. Stir in the yeast and sugar and let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes.
2. In a large bowl, combine 3 cups flour and the salt. Make a well in the center, pour in the yeast mixture and stir with a wooden spoon; the dough will feel sticky and elastic. Transfer to a floured work surface and dust with some of the remaining flour. Knead for 7 to 8 minutes, adding flour a little at a time as necessary until the dough is smooth and springy. Wash and dry the bowl, then lightly grease with oil. Return the dough to the bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap and let rise until doubled, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and cut into thirds; wrap each piece tightly in plastic wrap.
