Pizza Dough
Method
Preparation

Make the Pizza Dough
In a large bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy. Add olive oil, salt, and flour gradually, mixing until a dough forms.

Knead the Dough
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) during the last 20 minutes of the dough rising.
