This pizza crust recipe comes from my great-grandma, Emma Grosso, who was from Italy. It has been enjoyed in our family through the generations and always receives compliments when I share it with friends.

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

½ cup warm water
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
½ teaspoon white sugar
4 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup water
⅓ cup olive oil

Steps:

  • Combine 1/2 cup warm water, yeast, and sugar in a small bowl. Set aside until foamy, about 5 minutes.
  • Mix flour and salt together in a large bowl. Add water, oil, and yeast mixture; mix well.
  • Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until dough forms a solid lump, about 5 minutes. Place in a large greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Divide dough in half and spread out onto 2 pizza pans, making two 16-inch pizzas.
