Pizza Dough

Ingredients

• 6 cups Flour
• 3 cups Water
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 tablespoons salt
• 1/2 cup oil
• 2 tablespoons Yeast active dry yeast

Instructions

1. In a mixer with a hook. I use Kitchen Aid, but have also used the bread machine with this recepie and it works fine. I just let it rise half way before I divide it into 3 portions.
2. Mix water with yeast, sugar, salt and oil.
3. Then mix in the Flour in and turn the mixer to low speed until the dough comes together. This is to prevent flour flying all over the place.
4. Once the flour has come together bring the speed up to medium for about 20 mins.
5. Let it sit for 15 mins and turn it back on to medium speed for 15 more mins.
6. Let rise for 25 mins and then divide into three pieces, if you want large pizzas. however if you prefer smaller or thinner you may divide into more pieces.
7. Make the dough balls and let sit for about 35-40 mins depending on were you live. I put the dough balls in an oven (turned off) on medium level panel. At the bottom of the oven I place a bowl with boiling water and close the door for about 30 mins. This speeds up the process considerably.
