My Famous Pizza
2 Tablespoons of Yeast (heaping tablespoons)
2 c. warm water
1/2 c. sugar
2 eggs
3T. oil
1 t. salt
5-6 c. flour
Beat together the first four ingredients until foamy. Add next three ingredients and mix together. If I have time I'll let it rise a little bit, if not, I just go ahead. Knead into a ball, and divide in two. Makes two crusts.
Grease a pizza stone (or pan), and flatten out dough. Spread with pizza sauce. I use 1 can of tomato paste, the kind that is flavored with Basil, Oregano, etc. I dilute this can with a little water, and use it on both crusts. Top with your favorite toppings and cheese. **NOTE - a lot of vegetable toppings, i.e. pineapple, green peppers, onions, etc., do not work well on my crust. I don't know why for sure, but the crust will not cook through, and it is left soggy and doughy. We are a BORING family, and I will usually put all pepperoni on one pizza, and olives on 1/2 of it. This seems to work fine. I just wouldn't put a TON of vegetables together.
