Reverend's Sunday Pizza Dough

Still stinging from the end of the baseball season, need to do up some food. I went on about pizzas for a spell, so I suppose I should share my very simple recipe for dough. I typically make this with a food processor's dough blade, but a bread machine, stand mixer, or a pair of oiled up hands work just as well. The amounts here work well for two medium sized pizzas or one massive papa grande fiesta situation.

1 teaspoon yeast
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 to 1 1/4 cups water
2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil

Heat your oven up as much as you dare. I typically settle for 400 unless it's a cold winter's day. Top it with your fancy, bake for about 12 minutes. Keep an eye on it, because there will be no forgiveness from this Reverend if you burn your pizza because you weren't paying attention. Tsk tsk.

Good luck, share, and enjoy!

Original proportions are likely from one Mark Bittman and his fine culinary literature. Read more and enjoy that, too.
