directions

  • Blend together the dry ingredients in mixing bowl.
  • Pour in sourdough starter and olive oil and start machine; adding additional water and flour as needed.
  • Knead for approximately 6-8 minutes until dough is smooth and elastic.
  • Remove from bowl and form into 1 ball if baking pizza or 2 balls if grilling.
  • Place dough in bowl(s) that have been sprayed with non-stick, turning once to coat the top.
  • Loosely cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm draft-free place until doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 - 2 hours (depending on your starter and the temperature of your kitchen).
  • DO NOT PUNCH DOWN DOUGH.
  • Dredge hands in flour and remove dough.
  • Holding one edge of dough in the air with both hands and letting bottom touch work surface, carefully move hands around edge of dough (like turning a steering wheel), allowing weight of dough to stretch round to roughly 10 inches.
  • Lay dough flat on lightly floured pizza peel (or inverted cookie sheet) and continue to work edges with fingers and stretching into a 14-inch round (or two smaller circles).
  • Assemble and bake the pizza according to your favorite recipe.

  1. Good dough to work with. Great crust! Thanks.
     
  2. Very nice pizza crust. I did add about a tsp of Italian seasoning to the dough for some extra flavor, but other than that made as directed. It took mine the full 2 hours to double in size, but it was not the best day for dough rise around here today. Thanks GW. Made for a bonus tag in Pot Luck Tag game.
