Mom's Pizza Dough
Ingredients:
1/2 cup warm water
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 Tablespoons oil
2 1/2 - 3 cups flour
Yeast Mixture: (mix in measuring cup)
1/2 cup warm water
3/4 Tablespoon yeast
1/2 teaspoon sugar
- mix all this around with your finger a bit, let rise until at 1 cup mark to make sure you know the yeast is working
Method:
-First make your yeast mixture. In the mean time mix together sugar, salt and oil in separate bowl. Add yeast mixture to bowl. Add 1 1/2 cups flour. Beat until smooth and gradually add in additional 1 1/2 cups flour. Dough should be like biscuit dough. Turn on lightly floured board until smooth and elastic. Place in greased bowl and let stand 45 minutes, or until doubled in size. Punch down and divide into two. Let rise 10 minutes. Then, roll out dough on lightly floured surface and place on greased cookie sheets sprinkled with cornmeal.
I was hungry so I didn't take to much time making the crust's look pretty :) |
Topping Ideas:
Tomato sauce, oregano, mushroom, 1/2 green pepper, pineapple, tomato, olives, mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, beer or summer sausage.... etc.
Chicken Mixture |
First I do a layer of cream cheese, then a chicken mixture that I've pre-cooked on the stove. Mixture has cubed chicken, mushrooms, oregano, italian spices, a lot of garlic, green onions and such. I don't measure or anything, just make sure it smells good! :) Okay so.... cream cheese, little sprinkle of mozzarella, chicken mixture, more mushrooms, parmesan cheese, then a little more mozzarella cheese and you're done!
DO NOT OVERLOAD IT! Gets all soggy in the middle. Ew!
Just a P.S. to my sister Laura.... let's not act like we're on allrecipes hahaha!
