Directions

  1. DOUGH DIRECTIONS:1. If using a food processor, combine flour, yeast and salt in work bowl. Turn machine on and add in 1 c. water and the oil through the feed tube. Process 30 seconds, adding up to 1/4 c. more water, a little at a time, till mix forms a ball and is slightly sticky to the touch. (In unlikely event mix is too sticky, add in flour, a Tbsp. at a time.) To make dough by hand, combine half the flour with the yeast and salt in a bowl and stir to blend. Add in 1 c. water and the extra virgin olive oil; stir with a wooden spoon till smooth. Add in remaining flour bit at a time; when mix becomes too stiff to stir with a spoon, begin kneading, adding as little remaining flour as possible, just sufficient to keep dough from being sticky mess. Knead 5 - 10 min.
  2. 2. Turn dough onto a floured work surface and knead by hand a few seconds to create a smooth, round ball. Transfer to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap; let rise till doubled in size, 1 to 2 hrs. (You can cut rising time if you are in a hurry, or possibly you can let dough rise more slowly in refrigerator for 6 to 8 hrs.) Dough can then be used immediately or possibly wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and frzn for a month. Defrost in covered bowl in refrigerator or possibly at room temperature.
  3. 3. Form risen dough into a ball and divide into two or possibly more pcs; roll each into a ball. Place each on a lightly floured surface, sprinkle with a little flour, and cover with plastic wrap or possibly a towel. Let rest till slightly puffed, about 20 min.
  4. 4. Oil one or possibly more baking sheets, then press each dough ball into a flat round directly on sheet. Pat out dough as thin as you like, using oiled hands if necessary.
  5. 5. Proceed with any recipe.
