Time 40m

Yield Makes 1 pound

Number Of Ingredients 6

2/3 cup warm water (110°F)
1/4 ounce active dry yeast (not rapid rise; 2 1/4 teaspoons)
1 teaspoon sugar
1 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing

Steps:

  • Combine water, yeast, and sugar in a bowl; let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Add flour, salt, and oil, and stir until a ragged dough forms. Transfer to a lightly floured work surface.
  • Knead with floured hands until dough is smooth, elastic, and tacky but no longer sticky, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl brushed with oil, turning dough to evenly coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in volume, 30 to 45 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the taste of your pizza dough.
  • Follow the recipe carefully: Don't skip any steps or substitute ingredients unless you know what you're doing.
  • Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic: This will help to develop the gluten in the dough, which will make it strong and chewy.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place: This will allow the yeast to grow and ferment the dough, which will give it a light and airy texture.
  • Preheat your oven to the highest temperature possible: This will help to create a crispy crust.
  • Bake the pizza until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly: This will ensure that the pizza is cooked through.

Conclusion:

With a little practice, you'll be able to make a delicious pizza dough that will impress your friends and family. So what are you waiting for? Get started today!
