Favorite Pizza Dough

Directions

Sift the flour on to a work surface and make a well in the middle.

Pour the dissolved yeast into the well, add the salt and mix.

Bit by bit add the warm water, kneading all the time to make a soft, pliable dough.

Knead dough until it is light and elastic, then form into four balls.

Put them on to floured plates, cover and leave in a warm place to prove (rise) for about 1 hour.

Roll out dough balls into circles 12 inches in diameter.

Drizzle a little olive oil over the surface of each and top with ingredients of your choice.

Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in the oven at it’s highest temperature, on a flat metal baking tray that’s been preheated, so that the base cooks crisply.
