Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine boiling water, salt, and sugar. Stir until dissolved and let the mixture cool to lukewarm.

  4. Add the remaining flour and mix by hand, kneading the dough until it forms a smooth ball.
  5. Place the dough ball into a lightly greased large bowl. Brush the top with oil and cover with a towel.
  6. Let the dough rise in a warm place for 15 minutes.
  7. Turn the dough out onto a well-floured surface and knead for a few minutes.
  8. Roll the dough out thinly and place it into a lightly greased baking pan.
  9. Sprinkle the surface of the dough with oil and let it rise for another 15 minutes.
  10. Spread pizza sauce evenly over the dough, followed by a layer of mozzarella cheese.
  11. Sprinkle lightly with oregano, salt, pepper, and a drizzle of oil.
  12. Bake in a preheated oven at 425 degrees Fahrenheit (218ðC) until the crust is crisp and golden, about 25 to 30 minutes.
