Pizza Crust Recipe

Ingredients:

0.47 liter of warm water (110�F � 115�F)
59 mls. olive oil
2 pkgs. yeast
1 2/5 liter of all-purpose flour
9 9/10 mls. of salted yellow cornmeal

Directions:

Proof some yeast with the salt in your warm water (110′F-115′F). Combine together water, olive oil and yeast and put in a cup of flour one by one. Remove your dough and put on a lightly floured board or surface and then start kneading until the dough becomes smooth adding some flour to prevent the dough becoming too sticky.

This will take around 5-7 minutes. The result is a soft dough. Place your dough in a well greased bowl and make sure to turn it around so that the surface of the dough is well coated with the oil. After coating the dough with oil, cover it with some plastic wrap.

Allow to rise in a warm place or just until the size has doubled. Punch your dough down. Leave it to rest for 15 minutes. Divide your dough into half and press them into 2 12-inch pizza pans or you can also use 10 by 15 by 1 pans. Or use one of each. Sprinkle some yellow cornmeal on the pans. This is done to prevent the pizza crusts sticking to the pans.
