Method
Pizza Dough
Activate the Yeast
In a small bowl, combine warm water (about 110°F), sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Mix well to ensure salt is evenly distributed.
Combine Ingredients
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the activated yeast mixture and olive oil. Stir until a rough dough forms.
Knead the Dough
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
Let the Dough Rise
Place the kneaded dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
