List of Ingredients




1 pizza dough
1 cup cubed mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons diced garlic
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 Roma tomatoes, chopped thin, or 1 cup
canned tomatoes, drained and chopped
8 torn basil leaves
Pinch of salt
Dash of freshly-ground pepper

Preheat oven to 450°F.
Place the flattened pizza dough in a pizza pan and top with mozzarella cheese, garlic, olive oil, tomatoes, basil, salt and pepper. Bake for 8 to 12 minutes for desired crust.

Makes 4 appetizer-size servings or 2 main dish servings.

Basic: Pizza Dough
1 package active dry yeast (21/2 teaspoons)
1 teaspoon sugar
2 cups lukewarm water, divided
31/2 cups flour, plus additional for handling
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil

In a large bowl, combine yeast, sugar and 1/2 cup of water. Stir with a fork until mixed. Cover with a dry towel and let sit for 30 minutes. If yeast is foamy, continue; if not, throw out mixture and start over.
Add the salt, olive oil and remaining water. Stir in flour, 1/2 cup at a time.

Dust your hands with flour and knead the dough for 5 to 7 minutes or until dough is no longer sticky. Form the dough into a ball and coat it with olive oil. Place dough in a bowl, cover with a towel and set it in a warm place. Let dough rise for 1 hour or longer.

After dough rises, dust your hands with flour and re-knead the dough for about 2 minutes. Divide the dough into 4 equal parts and, using your hands, shape each into a flat disk. Cover and let rise another 30 minutes.
Using flour-covered hands, flatten disk further by pressing outward until you reach your desired thickness and circumference.

Makes 4 10-inch crusts.
