Pizza Recipe

Yield: 1 large pizza

In a small bowl mix
1 T. Yeast
1 C. Hot water (95-100 degrees)
1 T. Oil Wait 5 min for the yeast to activate (turn frothy on top)

In a large bowl mix:
3 C. Flour
1 t. Salt
1/2 T. Oregano
1T Garlic Salt

1. Pre-heat oven to 500 degrees. Place pizza stone (or pizza pan) in the oven while it is heating up.
2. Stir wet and dry ingredients together and add small amounts of water if dough feels dry. Mix or Knead for 8-10 minutes on a greased surface. Dough should be elastic.
3. It is o.k. to freeze dough at this time if you run out of time. Place dough in a large freezer ziptop bag.

Label: Pizza dough and freeze for up to 6 months. To use, simply defrost in the microwave, roll out and make a pizza, Stromboli or calzone.

4. Roll out pizza. Fold over edges to make a crust. Poke pizza dough all over with a fork to prevent bubbles in the crust. Place on pizza pans.

5. Bake for 4-5 minutes at 500 degrees. Mix together pizza sauce (recipe is below)

6. Pull out hot crust and top with ½ c. cheese first (this will keep the pizza dough from getting soggy.)

7. Pour sauce on top of cheese. Pile on toppings, top again with cheese.

8. Cool pizza and then wrap pizza in plastic wrap. You can freeze pizza for one hour and then wrap up without a pizza pan. Label 500 degrees for 10-15 minutes and put in freezer. Can freeze for 3-6 months.

To Serve: Do not thaw. Place pizza on a pizza stone in the oven while it is pre-heating to 500 degrees. Bake 10-15 min. at 500 degrees or until cheese is melted and crust is golden. Pizza Sauce Per Pizza: 1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce1 T. oregano1 t. minced garlic
