Italian Pizza Dough (Makes 3 Medium Crusts)<\/p>\n
Ingredients:<\/p>\n
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
\n1 \u00bd cups warm water (about 110\u00b0F\/45\u00b0C)
\n4 cups all-purpose flour
\n1 teaspoon sea salt
\n\u2153 cup extra virgin olive oil<\/p>\n
Instructions:<\/p>\n
Activate the Yeast:
\nIn a large mixing bowl or stand mixer bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water. Let it sit for 5\u201310 minutes, until it becomes foamy.
\nMix the Dough:
\nAdd the olive oil and sea salt to the yeast mixture.
\nGradually add in the flour, one cup at a time, mixing with a wooden spoon or dough hook until the dough begins to come together.
\nKnead the Dough:
\nTransfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for 8\u201310 minutes (or knead with a stand mixer on medium for about 5 minutes), until the dough is smooth and elastic.
\nFirst Rise:
\nPlace the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 to 1\u00bd hours, or until doubled in size.
\nDivide and Rest:
\nPunch down the dough and divide it into 3 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball.
\nLet the dough balls rest for 15\u201320 minutes at room temperature. This makes them easier to roll out.
\nRoll and Bake:
\nRoll out each dough ball into a medium-sized pizza crust on a floured surface.
\nAdd your favorite toppings.
\nBake in a preheated oven at 475\u00b0F (245\u00b0C) for 10\u201315 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
