INSTRUCTIONS
In a large bowl, combine the water, molasses, and yeast, and stir
gently to mix. Set aside for about 5 minutes, until bubbling and
foamy. Add the salt and olive oil, and stir to mix. In another bowl,
whisk together the flours. Add the flours to the yeast mixture and
stir with a wooden spoon until a dough forms and pulls away from the
sides of the bowl. Form the dough into 2 or 6 balls and transfer to a
lightly oiled bowl. Turn to coat with oil, and then dab about 1 tsp.
of oil (1/4 tsp. for 6 balls) on top of each ball of dough. Cover the
bowl with plastic wrap and set aside at warm room temperature for
about 20 minutes. Prepare a charcoal or gas grill. Position the
grilling rack 3 to 4 inches from the heat source. The coals should be
very hot. Oil a rimless baking sheet and flatten one ball of dough
into a 10- to 12-inch or 5- to 6-inch round about 1/8 inch thick.
While a perfect circle is not important, it is important to maintain
uniform thickness. Using your fingertips, gently lift the dough and
drape it onto the grill, guiding it carefully onto the rack. Within 1
minute, it will puff slightly, the underside will stiffen, and grill
marks will appear. Using tongs, immediately flip the crust over onto
the coolest part of the grill. Brush it with olive oil and top as
desired. Repeat the procedure with the other balls of dough. Makes two
10- to 12-inch OR six 5- to 6-inch pizzas; serves 6. Prepared August
5, 1997, by Marion Scotto, as part of "LIVE!"'s "Italian Cooking
Week." From the cookbook "FRESCO, Modern Cooking for All Seasons," by
