Yield Dough for four 8-inch pizzas

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 package fresh or dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus oil for the bowl
3/4 cup cool water
3 cups all-purpose flour (approximately)

Steps:

  • Dissolve yeast in the warm water; stir in 1/2 teaspoon honey, and set aside to proof for 10 minutes.
  • Mix remaining 2 1/2 teaspoons honey with the salt, olive oil and cool water and set aside.
  • Put the flour in the bowl of a food processor. With processor running, slowly pour honey-oil mixture in through the feed tube. Then pour in the dissolved yeast. Process until dough forms a ball on blade. If it is too sticky, sprinkle on a little more flour.
  • Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth. Transfer to an oiled bowl and set aside to rest, covered, for 30 minutes.
  • Divide dough into four equal parts. Roll each into a smooth, tight ball. Put on a flat sheet or dish, cover with a damp towel and refrigerate 1 to 3 hours.
  • One hour before baking remove dough from refrigerator and let it come to room temperature before rolling and shaping.
