Pizza Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a small bowl, dissolve sugar and yeast in warm water. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Slowly mix in the yeast mixture and olive oil, kneading until a smooth dough forms. Cover and let it rise in a warm area for 1 hour.

  2. 2

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it preheats.

  3. 3

    Shape the Pizza

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface to your desired shape. Transfer the dough to a pizza peel or a baking sheet.

  4. 4

    Add Toppings

    Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top. If desired, add bacon slices or any other toppings of your choice.

  5. 5

    Bake the Pizza

    Carefully slide the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or place the baking sheet in the oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.

  6. 6

    Cool and Serve

    Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve uncut for a traditional experience.
