RESTAURANT STYLE PIZZA DOUGH RECIPE BY WEIGHT

Steps:

• Place water and sugar in mixing bowl, stir to combine and add the yeast. Allow yeast to sit until it starts to bubble 10 minutes or so. Then add the flour and salt.
• Run mixer on low speed for 2 minutes or until combined. Then run on medium for 10 minutes.
• Remove the dough from the bowl and form it into a ball. Place the dough in another bowl or even a gallon ziploc bag, and rub olive oil on it to keep it from drying out.
• Let it rest for 1 1/2 hours or until double in size.
• Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
• Cut the dough in half for two regular pizza's or cut it into 4 pieces for thin crust pizza's.
• Roll out the dough and place your favorite toppings on it.
• Bake at 500 degrees for about 10-12 minutes. For a pizza with heavy or a lot of toppings, par bake the crust for about 4-5 minutes.
• Note (I use a pizza stone and preheat the oven for atleast 30 minutes.). I hope you enjoy this recipe!

ROBERTA'S PIZZA DOUGH

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine flours and salt.
• In a small mixing bowl, stir together 200 grams (a little less than 1 cup) lukewarm tap water, the yeast and the olive oil, then pour it into flour mixture. Knead with your hands until well combined, approximately 3 minutes, then let the mixture rest for 15 minutes.
• Knead rested dough for 3 minutes. Cut into 2 equal pieces and shape each into a ball. Place on a heavily floured surface, cover with dampened cloth, and let rest and rise for 3 to 4 hours at room temperature or for 8 to 24 hours in the refrigerator. (If you refrigerate the dough, remove it 30 to 45 minutes before you begin to shape it for pizza.)
• To make pizza, place each dough ball on a heavily floured surface and use your fingers to stretch it, then your hands to shape it into rounds or squares. Top and bake.
