Perfect Pizza Recipe

Directions:

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together warm water and yeast, and set aside. The mixture should start to foam after a few minutes.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, and gluten if using.
  3. Stir well, then add the water/yeast mixture and olive oil.
  4. Stir until a ball forms. Use your hands to knead the dough for several minutes.
  5. Form the dough into a loose ball, drizzle a little olive oil on top, and cover the bowl with a clean dish towel.
  6. Let the dough rise for 2-3 hours.
  7. When the first rise is finished, punch down the dough and cut the ball in half.
  8. Roll each piece of dough into a new ball, place them in separate bowls, and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
  9. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 180° or according to your oven and prepare your toppings.
  10. Chop any veggies you plan to add.
  11. Sprinkle a few tablespoons of whole wheat flour on a clean countertop, then flatten one of the dough balls onto it.
  12. Use a rolling pin to gently roll the dough into a circle.
  13. Use your fingers to shape the edges into a slight crust. You can also lift the dough by the crusts and gently turn it to help the dough stretch evenly.
  14. Once the dough is shaped into a crust, place it on the stone or baking sheet.
  15. Rub about 2 teaspoons of olive oil onto the surface of the crust.
  16. Spread chili garlic sauce and top with chicken or any meat and veggies then sprinkle some cheese.
  17. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the crust is brown, and the cheese is bubbling.
  18. Slice and serve hot!
  19. Enjoy!!!!!
