Ingredients
Directions
2 1/4 teaspoons Active Dry Yeast1 cup Warm Water1 1/2 teaspoons Sugar2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil1 1/2 teaspoons Salt3 cups All-Purpose Flour (more or less, as needed)
1. In a mixing bowl, dissolve sugar in warm water (not hot!). 2. Sprinkle the yeast into the bowl, and let set until foamy, about 10 minutes.
3. Using a wooden spoon, mix in olive oil and salt.
4. Add 2 cups of flour, 1/2 cup at a time, while mixing.
5. Turn dough out onto a well-floured work surface. Knead dough, adding flour as needed, until the dough is soft, elastic, and slightly sticky (5-10 minutes). Form dough into a ball.
6. Place dough in a large, well-oiled bowl, then flip dough once, so the whole ball is covered in oil. Cover the bowl with a towel and set in a warm, draft-free area to rise for 2 hours.
7. Punch down the dough, cover, and place in refrigerator for at least 24 hours, and up to 72 hours. (Can place in zipper bags, or seal the bowl with plastic wrap or airtight lid.)
8. When ready to use: Remove dough from fridge and let it come up to room temperature before use.
9. On a floured surface, use your hands to stretch the dough to the desired shape and size.
10. Use this dough with your favourite pizza recipe (sauce and toppings). Follow that recipe's directions for oven temperature and cooking time.
