Super Easy Pizza
So this is the kind of dish I didn't think I would ever make at home. But after tasting Mme. SF' masterpiece, I was convinced that good pizza is basically homemade. Now I admit that I make bread now and then, but I have to say bread making is not my favorite kitchen activity. It's messy and I find it a little bit harder to clean. Nonetheless, my pursuit of good pizza has led me to this pizza dough making experience.
This recipe is has basically the same ingredients as Mme. SF' slice of deliciousness, but it's a lot quicker.
Super Easy Pizza
Dough:
2 cups flour (I highly recommend the bread flour but plain flour works too)
1 - 8gr sachet of dry yeast (about 2 tsp)
1 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 tbs olive oil
3/4 cup warm water
For the sauce:
tomato paste
olive oil
Herbs (I usually use oregano, thyme, and basil)
1 tbs red wine (optional)
Toppings:
Anything you want and shredded cheese
Combine all of the dough dry ingredients in large mixing bowl. Add oil and water, and mix to a soft dough.
Knead on a floured surface until soft & pliable. Return to mixing bowl & over w/ saran wrap/cling wrap & leave in a warm spot for 30 minute, until dough double its size.
Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine all of the sauce ingredients. Stir and set aside
Preheat oven to 375 F (190 C - 200 C). When it has risen, 'punch' the dough once to remove air bubbles. Remover from bowl & knead gently for 1 minute. Roll dough out the the desired size, shape. Transfer to a greased & floured pizza pan. Spread sauce & add toppings
Bake at 375 F (between 190 C - 200 C) for about 15 minute or until cooked (depending on how thick it is) Bon Appétit!
