3 c all-purpose white bread flour
1 package quick-rising yeast
2 t salt
1/2 t sugar
1 c water
2 T extra-virgin olive oil plus a little extra
In a food processor fitted with a dough blade, combine flour, yeast,
salt and sugar. Process to mix. (or mix well in a bowl)
In a small saucepan or in a microwave-safe container, combine the
water and oil. Heat until an instant-read thermometer reads 125 F
to 130 F.
With the food processor running, slowly pour in the heated water
mixture and process until the dough forms into a ball. Continue
processing for 1 minute or more to knead dough. (This also can be done
by hand. After mixing thoroughly, you'll need to knead it for a
to get a more tender dough.) Turn onto a lightly floured surface,
cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 30 minutes.
Divide the dough into 6 balls. On a floured work surface, roll out
each ball into a circle about 6 inches in diameter and about 1/8 inch
thick. Brush both sides with olive oil. You can stack the dough rounds
and they won't stick together. The dough is ready to grill. Makes 6
pizzas.
