Pizza Delight!



Dough(quick rise method)
2 1/2-3 c Flour
1 Tbsp Sugar
1 Tbsp(1pkg) Quick rise yeast
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 tbsp Olive Oil
1 C Warm Water(100-110 F/37 C)

Mix 2 c flour with sugar, yeast and salt. Heat water and oil, then pour in to dry. Using a wooden spoon(of a mixer w/ dough hook) stir until mixed, add a bit more flour to make dough less sticky, and then turn out on a floured surface. Knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth, flouring when ever dough feels sticky. Place in an oiled bowl, turning dough to coat it. Let it rest for 10 minutes, covered, in a warm draft free place. Divide dough in two, and stretch out to make two 12" thin crust pizzas or do not divide to make one 14" thick crust pizza. Let rest for ten minutes, then top with your choice of deliciousness!

Toppings :
Chiorizo(hot)
Pressed garlic (2 cloves)
Smoked Mozzarella( about 100 grams)
Sundried tomatoes(diced/sliced)
