Pizza Dough

I have made my fair share of pizza dough’s and my family considers themselves, pizza dough connoisseurs.  I have in my own way spoiled them rotten, they no longer like pizza delivery, they want my pizza and they would never consider eating a frozen pizza.  This recipe is their favorite; I also usually have to make a double batch so that they can have bread sticks as well to dip into the leftover pizza sauce that yes I make from scratch.

                                                         Pizza Dough
The Best Dough Ever



Yeast  4 ½ teaspoons
Little bit of Gingerale or 7 up probably quarter can or half, its upto you.
2 Teaspoons of sugar
4 cups of flour
1 tea spoon of salt
¼ cup of olive oil (or any oil , I prefer olive oil)
1 ½ cup of WARM Water .

How to Make Dough:

Take a mixing Bowl
. Put sugar first , then add yeast , wait for 5 mins so it can mix then add warm water in it, mix it well then add , salt olive oil ,gingerale or 7 up mix it well, then at the end pour the flour slowly and keep mixing till all the flour is mixed then mix for at least 10-15 mins . If the flour sticks to the bottom or the sides of the bowl then that means you have to add little bit more water. So add and mix till it doesn’t stick on the side. But the more you mix the better result you will get.

Take it out from the bowl cut it in to to pieces , make it round like and place it in something round which can be covered tightly and place it outside for 10 mins . After that place it in the fridge for the whole night because that yeast will make it rise, well it takes practice to be perfect on pizza making. The next day you will get Your perfect. Dough. 



Bake 425 for 20 to 25 minutes


You can also let it rise all day I make it at 1:00 in the afternoon and then let it rise till 3:30 then pat it down and make pizzas.
