Pizza Dough For Thin Crust Pizza

1. 1

   Mix a little sugar into the warm water.

2. 2

   Sprinkle yeast on top.

3. 3

   Wait for 10 minutes or until it gets all foamy.

4. 4

   Pour into a large bowl.

5. 5

   Add flour, salt, olive oil.

6. 6

   Combine.

7. 7

   Knead for 6-8 minutes until you have a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic (add a bit more flour if you need to).

8. 8

   Cover and let rest for 20-30 minutes.

9. 9

   Lightly grease two 12-inch pizza pans.

10. 10

    Sprinkle with a little bit of cornmeal.

11. 11

    Divide dough in half.

12. 12

    Place each half on a pizza pan and pat it with your fingers until it stretches over the whole pan.

13. 13

    Try to make it thicker around the edge.

14. 14

    If desired, pre-bake at 425 F for 10 minutes (I don't always do this).

15. 15

    Then spread with pizza sauce and use the toppings of your choice.

16. 16

    Bake at 425 F for 10-20 minutes longer or until bubbly and hot.

17. 17

    If you don't want to use all the dough, you can freeze it.

18. 18

    Take a portion of dough, form into a ball, rub olive oil over it and place it in a freezer bag (the oil makes it easier to take out of the bag).

19. 19

    When you want to make a pizza, take dough out of freezer and allow to thaw before using.
