Best 4 Perfect Every Time Pizza Or Calzone Dough Recipes
PERFECT EVERY TIME PIZZA OR CALZONE DOUGH
Ready in a snap and my kids love it! This can be used for pizza dough too. My dear chef friend Darrin Gleason shared this recipe with me over ten years ago while attending college. It has been a go-to recipe for my family for all these years and I thought I should share it with my cooking community.

PIZZA DOUGH FOR CALZONES (OR PIZZA )
This is a really delicious basic pizza dough. The mixture of cornmeal with white, semolina and whole wheat flours gives a great taste and texture. I mostly use it to make my Spinach & Cheese Calzones, but it also works well as a pizza base. If you want more flavor add 2 tsp of oregano.

Steps:
- In a large mixing bowl, mix together the white, semolina, whole wheat flour, 1/4 cup of the cornmeal, salt & yeast.
- Make a well in the center and pour in the water and oil. Mix with the paddle of an electric mixer for about 5 minutes until dough forms. Or you can mix with a wooden spoon for 10 minutes.
- Knead by hand on lightly floured surface for 10 minutes, or in mixer bowl with a dough hook for 5 minutes. Alternatively, if you have a food processor you can mix the dry ingredients in the work bowl and then, with the motor running, add the water and oil. Process for about 45 seconds.
- Lightly spray a mixing bowl and a baking sheet with vegetable spray. Place the dough in the bowl and cover with a towel. Let rise at room temperature for about 30 minutes until dough has doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough. Then sprinkle the baking sheet with 2 tsp of cornmeal. Roll and stretch the dough on the baking sheet to form a 14-inch circle. After adding toppings, bake in a 450-degree oven until crisp, about 10-12 minutes.
- If you're making my Spinach & Cheese calzones follow this recipe until you punch down the dough. Then refer to the calzone recipe.

PERFECT-EVERY-TIME PIZZA DOUGH AND PEPPERONI PIZZA
Homemade pizza should be a staple recipe for every cook, and it's really easy to make. Not only that, but it's a great recipe to get friends and family involved. I like making the dough and shaping it into balls ahead of time. You can use them right away or even freeze them for the future. This dough also works for making calzones, dinner rolls and flatbreads.

Steps:
- Make the dough: In a large bowl, stir together the warm water, yeast, olive oil and salt until the salt dissolves. Let this mixture rest for about 10 to 20 minutes, until slightly foamy.
- Transfer the yeast and water mixture to the bowl of a stand mixer, making sure to scrape all the yeast into the bowl. Add the flours to the mixing bowl. Attach a dough hook and knead on medium speed for about 4 minutes. The mixture will come together into a ball that pulls away from the sides.
- Transfer the dough ball to a clean area to knead. Flour the station and knead well for about 2 minutes. Cut the ball in half and shape each into round balls. Place each ball in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic and let rise in the fridge overnight. This overnight fermentation will give the dough a pleasant sourness. You can do this on the counter in an hour or two, but you won't have the same flavor from a slow rise.
- Make the pizza: Place a pizza steel or stone on the middle rack of the oven and preheat to its highest setting. Let the oven heat up for at least 45 minutes.
- Dust the surface of a pizza peel or the back of a baking sheet with flour or cornmeal. Stretch one ball of dough out into a 12-inch (30.5-cm) round and place on the peel or baking sheet. Place half the sauce in the center of the stretched dough and spread it out evenly with a spoon. You want to cover all but 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) of the edge.
- Drizzle the pizza with a tiny bit of olive oil. Rain half the mozzarella over the pizza. Place half the pepperoni on the pizza in an even pattern. Sprinkle with half the Parmesan and half the dried oregano.
- Slide the pizza onto the heated steel or stone in the oven. Bake until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling, 4 to 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and let rest for 2 to 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Meanwhile, repeat with the remaining dough ball and pizza ingredients to make a second pizza.
- Heat the olive oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. When the temperature gets to about 375 degrees F (190 degrees C), stir in the garlic and the anchovies and sizzle for about 30 seconds.
- Pour in the tomatoes, bring to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes, until the sauce reduces and thickens slightly. Lower the heat if the sauce starts to boil. Stir in the oregano, salt, pepper and sugar, if using, and cook for an additional minute. Remove the sauce from the heat and use immediately or store in airtight containers or even resealable plastic bags in the refrigerator or freezer until ready to use.
