Pizza Dough

Directions

• In a large bowl, mix the flour, salt and sugar.
• In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in the warm water.
• Let it rest for about 5 minutes until it starts to foam.
• Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the olive oil and yeast mixture.
• With a spoon or your hands, start mixing the ingredients until the dough begins to form.
• Transfer the dough to a floured surface and begin kneading with your hands for about 10 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
• Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean tea towel and let it rest in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
• After the resting time, preheat the oven to 220°C.
• Take the dough out of the bowl and place it on a floured surface.
• Divide it into smaller pieces depending on the size of pizzas you want to make.
• Open each piece of dough with a rolling pin until you get the desired shape for your pizza.
• Transfer the dough to a baking sheet or pizza stone.
• Add your favorite ingredients like tomato sauce, cheese, vegetables, meats, etc.
• Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the ingredients are cooked through.
• Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, cut into slices and enjoy!
