Ingredients
  • 4 1/2 cup Flour (high gluten)
  • 1 packet Dry yeast
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 2 cup Warm water
  • 2 tbsp Vegetable or olive oil
Directions
  1. 1
    In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of the flour, dry yeast, and salt.
  2. 2
    Add the warm water and oil to the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly until a shaggy dough forms.

    Gradually add the remaining flour, one handful at a time, mixing until the dough is too stiff to stir.

Note

For best results, use a pizza stone preheated for at least 20 minutes to achieve a crispier crust.

Ensure water is warm (about 105-110ðF) to activate the yeast without killing it.

Dough can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours for a deeper flavor; bring to room temperature before shaping.

If the dough sticks, dust with more flour; if it tears, let it rest for a few minutes before continuing.
