Peg’s Pizza Dough

INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Dissolve yeast in 2 tbsp lukewarm water. Place oil in bowl with boiling
water. Let both mixtures cool some. Then add dissolved yeast to oil/water
mixture. Add flour and salt. Mix, knead, and divide into 2 parts. Roll
balls out to pizza pan size and place on pan that has been sprinkled with
cornmeal. This will allow the pizza to be slid off onto oven rack to brown
bottom. Lightly grease top of dough with olive oil. Place a scant ladle of
pizza sauce or tomato sauce on pizza (too much sauce causes toppings to
slide off pizza). Spread it all over top of pizza. Add desired ingredients
to your pizza and bake in 450 degree oven for about 15 minutes. Then slide
off of pan onto oven racks to brown bottom, if desired. Continue baking
about 3 to 5 more minutes.
NOTES : This dough freezes exceptionally well. Roll out and place in pizza
pan, then wrap pan and dough completely. (I use plastic grocery bags.) I
usually have to use a spatula to run around the edges of the pizza prior to
the cooking part directly on the rack. This helps in sliding it off.
