Is there a certain recipe that you acquired from your own mom, that every time you cook it up, your house has the aroma of the home you grew up in. THIS is that recipe for me (or one of the recipes). My mom's homemade pizza. Don't shy away...it's easier than you'd think. And the bonus is you can involve the kiddos. If they're anything like my boys, they'll have a blast making the pizza and enjoy eating it too!
Carole's Pizza
•
2 envelopes dry yeast (I use the fast-rising kind)
•
1 teaspoon sugar
•
1 1/3 c warm (hot if rapid-rise) water
•
1 teaspoon salt
•
4 cups flour
•
corn meal
Sprinkle dry yeast over hot water. Stir and let sit for one minute. Stir in sugar, salt and 2 cups flour. Work in one more cup flour. Use remaining cup as needed (you don't want the dough to be too dry). Let sit in bowl to rise. While dough is rising, prepare pizza sauce and shred cheese.
•
1 16 oz. can tomatoes, pureed.
•
6 oz. can tomato paste
•
1/2 c hot water
•
1 teaspoon salt
•
1/2 teaspoon oregano
•
1/2 teaspoon basil
•
1/4 teaspoon pepper
•
onion powder
•
Mozzarella cheese
•
Desired toppings - pepperoni, mushrooms, sausage, etc.
Heat oven to 450 degrees. Place pizza crusts in oven for ten minutes. Remove from oven and top with sauce, mozzarella cheese and other toppings. Bake for 10-12 minutes longer until cheese browns.
Buon Appetito!
