Pizza Dough

For now, try this, a delicious pizza dough recipe I learnt from my brother in-law:

Pizza Dough

3/4 cup hot water
3/4 cup milk
4 pinches sugar
1 tbsp (1 packet) yeast
1 tsp salt
3-4 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp rye flour
3 tbsp wheat flour
approx. 4 - 5 Cups white flour

Add all ingredients except white flour into a mixing bowl and mix them up.
Add white flour until it turns to dough, not gooey any more, but doughy.
Heat oven to 100º then turn off.
Put a towel over mixing bowl/dough and put in oven for at least 1 hour to allow dough to rise.

Should make enough dough for three or four or five thin crust pizzas.



Cook pizzas in 450º oven until crust starts to turn golden-brown/sauce is a-bubblin'

Slightly larger batch:
1 1/4 cup hot water
1 1/4 cup milk
6 pinches sugar
1 1/2 tbsp (1 1/2 packet) yeast
1 1/2 tsp salt
5-6 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp rye flour
4 tbsp wheat flour
5 1/2 - 6 Cups white flour
