INSTRUCTIONS
PIZZA DOUGH
TOPPING
Dissolve yeast in the warm water. Add yeast/water mixture to 3 cups of the
flour. Mix, adding regular salt and olive oil a little at a time. Add
the rest of the flour bit by bit until the dough "feels right".
Turn dough onto a floured board and knead; adding more flour if necessary
to keep the dough from sticking to your fingers. Put the dough in a
greased bowl and rotate to distribute the grease all over the dough. Let
rise until about double in size (approx. 2 hours).
Remove the dough, punch down and roll out on the floured board to a
thickness of 3/8 to 1/2 inch (make it any shape you desire). Put dough in
a pan or cookie sheet. With a pastry brush, paint liberally with
additional olive oil. Use your thumb and 2 fingers to make dimples over
the entire surface. Sprinkle the Kosher sea salt and rosemary over the
surface of the dough. Let rise a little more.
Bake at 375 degrees F for about 25 minutes. When done, paint liberally
again with olive oil.
Makes 1 white pizza.

NOTES : George (who grew up in Italy) says this is what you would get if
you wal ked into a corner pizzeria in Rome and asked for "White Pizza". In
Italy, there are 2 basic types of pizza -- white and red. Red pizza is
white pizza with tom ato sauce.
