How to make pizza dough

Recipe 1 – Basic Pizza Dough

Ingredients:

* 2 packages dry yeast
* 1 1/2 cup lukewarm water
* 4 cups flour
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 1/2 teaspoon sugar
* 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions:

Dissolve yeast in water; set aside for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Combine flour, salt, sugar and oil in bowl; make a well in the center. When water/yeast mixture is bubbly, pour into center of well. Start kneading dough, bringing flour toward center of bowl; gradually increase kneading motion.

If dough feels dry, add a little more water; if it feels sticky, add more flour. Knead vigorously until dough is smooth and elastic. Roll into ball; cover with a damp cloth. Let rest for about 20 minutes in warm place. Beat dough with your palm to expel gas formed while fermenting. Roll dough again into ball; place in greased bowl. Baste with oil. Cover with plastic wrap; store in refrigerator.

When ready to use, place dough on floured counter top or table. Flatten with your hands, working from center out (a rolling pin may do also). Push dough evenly onto greased cookie sheet or pizza pan, forming a 12-inch circle with edges thicker than middle. Apply favorite topping in desired amounts. Bake in hot oven (475 to 500 degrees) until golden brown.

Recipe 2 – New York Style Pizza Dough

Ingredients:

* 1 1/2 cup warm water
* 2 1/2 teaspoons granulated sugar
* 2 1/2 teaspoons salt
* 1 tablespoon olive oil
* 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
* 1/2 teaspoon active dry yeast
* 1/2 cup cornmeal
* sauce, cheese, and toppings of your choice

Directions:

In a large bowl, dissolve sugar and salt in water. Add oil and flour to bowl and stir with heavy spoon for 1 minute. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and press into a circle. Sprinkle yeast evenly over dough and knead for 12 minutes. Divide dough into portions: 4 equal portions for calzones, 3 equal portions for 8″ pizzas, 2 equal portions for 12″ pizzas. Place dough balls in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and allow to rise for 1 1/2 hours in a warm location. Place a dough ball on a lightly floured surface and sprinkle a light coating of flour on top. Working from the edges to the center, press dough into a circle. Preheat a pizza stone in a 500 degree oven for 1 hour. Coat a large cutting board with cornmeal and place the flattened dough onto the cornmeal. Spread sauce over crust and top with cheese and desired toppings. Gently shake the cutting board from side to side, assuring it isn’t sticking to the board. For a calzone, fold the crust over in half. Slide the pizza/calzone from the cutting board directly onto the pizza stone in the oven. Bake in 500 degree oven for 20-25 minutes, until crust is golden.

Taco Bell Mexican Pizza Recipe

Ingredients:

* 1/2 pound ground beef
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1/4 teaspoon dried minced onion
* 1/4 teaspoon paprika
* 1 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
* 2 tablespoons water
* 8 small (6-inch diameter) flour tortillas
* 1 cup Crisco shortening or cooking oil
* 1 (16 oz) can refried beans
* 1/3 cup diced tomato
* 2/3 cup mild picante salsa
* 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
* 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
* 1/4 cup chopped green onions
* 1/4 cup sliced black olives

Directions:

Cook the ground beef over medium heat until brown, then drain off the excess fat from the pan. Add salt, onions, paprika, chili powder and water, then let mixture simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes. Stir often. Heat oil or Crisco shortening in a frying pan over medium-high heat. If oil begins to smoke, it is too hot. When oil is hot, fry each tortilla for about 30-45 seconds per side and set aside on paper towels. When frying each tortilla, be sure to pop any bubbles that form so that tortilla lays flat in oil. Tortillas should become golden brown. Heat up refried beans in a small pan over the stove or in the microwave. Preheat oven to 400F. When meat and tortillas are done, stack each pizza by first spreading about 1/3 cup refried beans on face of one tortilla. Next spread 1/4 to 1/3 cup of meat, then another tortilla. Coat your pizzas with two tablespoons of salsa on each, then split up the tomatoes and stack them on top. Next divide up the cheese, onions and olives, stacking in that order. Place pizzas in your hot oven for 8-12 minutes or until cheese on top is melted.
