Recipe: Homemade Pizza
Makin' it from scratch
My Dad loves my cooking. If you ask him about my Margarita pizza he will go on and on. Me? I always think it could use improving. The other day, he requested that I make him my Margarita pizza w/salami. I never refuse a tasty request! Especially not from my favorite costumer. So, I decided to make the crust from scratch. I found this recipe and modified it. I also discovered that I had no permade sauce left so I went out and found another recipe for homemade sauce. Here are my results. ![]() ![]() ![]() Homemade Pizza Crust -1 package of active yeast -2 teaspoons: light brown sugar -1 1/2 cups: warm water -1 teaspoon: salt -2 tablespoons: olive oil -3 1/3 cups: all-purpose flour In a small bowl dissolve your yeast with the sugar and warm water for 10 minutes. Combine your flour/salt in a large bowl. Once the yeast has bloomed, combine it with your dry mixture. Add in your olive oil as well. You will begin to form a dough from this mixture. You may need to add more flour during this process, I did. Knead your dough on a floured surface until it is smooth. Place in a well oiled bowl and let it rise for one hour or overnight. Once the dough has doubled in size, punch it down and flip it out onto a well-floured surface. Form the dough into your desired shape and prick the top of the dough with a fork before placing in an oven to bake in a preheated 425 degree oven. * For about 15 minutes.* Don't worry if you don't think the dough isn't completely baked. You will be baking it again with the sauce and topping placed on top. So if it's a little underdone, it will be alright. Homemade Pizza Sauce -1 Regular-size can of tomato sauce -1/4 teaspoon: salt -2 1/2 teaspoons: white granulated sugar -1/2 teaspoon: garlic powder -1/4 teaspoon: basil -1/2 teaspoon: Italian seasoning -Pepper to taste In a large bowl combine all the ingredients. Taste to add anything extra like: salt/sugar/ect. Margarita Pizza -1 Cooked crust -Pizza sauce -Mozzarella, cut into chunks -Basil, to taste -Olive oil -Salt and pepper, to taste -2 slices of salami, cut into fours (optional) On your premade crust, drizzle on a bit of olive oil before spooing on the desired amount of pizza sauce. Then assemble your mozzarella chunks on the crust evenly. Sprinkle on basil/salt/pepper to taste. Top off your pizza with the salami and another drizzle of olive oil. Bake in a perheated 425 degree oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the cheese has begun to melt and brown. Much love, Cat. related searches : Recipe
