Pizza Crust - Jean

  Re: (...)
Jean, I copied this recipe of yours from a post in December. Have you ever made it with out a bread machine? I was going to use my kitchenAid with a dough hook but have no idea how long I would knead it for.

JEAN'S PIZZA DOUGH


1 c. +3 T. water
2 tsps olive oil
2 3/4 c. (13.5 oz) bread flour
1/4 c. (1.1 oz.) whole wheat flour
1 tsp each: garlic & onion powders
1/4 c. (.7 oz.) dry milk powder
2 tsps sugar
1 1/2 tsps salt
2 tsps Active dry yeast

Fill bread machine in the order that your model recommends.
Set machine to 'dough'; take out at end of process & spread on a Pam-sprayed pizza pan which has been sprinkle w/corn meal.
For individual pizzas - divide dough into 1/4s.

Either freeze, refrigerate till needed, or top immediately w/toppings of your choice.

Oven: Bake at 450° for ~15 min., or till crust is golden.
BBQ: MOM - grill for 4 min.; remove from grill and turn grill side up.
Top w/toppings; place back on grill for ~6 min. more.

Roxanne, I am also going to try the C@H recipe you posted.

I am only guessing on this one Erin, because I used my bread machine when I made it, but I would say if you kneaded it with the dough hook for 4-5 minutes it would probably be right. I'm sure Jean will be along with a better answer though.

This is the best pizza dough I have ever made, and my whole family agreed.

You know for years, I've been telliing myself to make this without the 'machine' at least once and I haven't yet, but I will definitely soon!! I'd go with Maryannn's time. and then let it rest for about 10 minutes.

Hmmm, how about with a Cuisinart food processor? I'll have to go look.

Here's one from Cuisinart. Haven't tried it, but thought maybe one of you adventurous souls could adapt Jean's recipe to be made in a food processor....

Pizza Dough - Cuisinart

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 package active dry yeast -- (2-1/4 teaspoons)
1/2 cup warm (105?F) water
1 teaspoon sugar
4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 cup cold water
flour for dusting

In a 2-cup liquid measure, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let stand until foamy, about 3 - 5 minutes. Insert dough blade in work bowl and add flour, salt and olive oil. Add cold water to yeast mixture.

With machine running, pour liquid through small feed tube as fast as flour absorbs it. Process until dough cleans sides of work bowl and forms a ball. Then process for 45 seconds to knead dough. Dough may be slightly sticky. Dust dough lightly with flour; transfer to a plastic food storage bag, squeeze out air and seal top. Let rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes

Place dough on a lightly floured surface and punch down, let rest 5 - 10 minutes. Roll into desired crust sizes and follow pizza recipe.

Note: If you only wish to make one pizza, you may freeze half the dough before it rises. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and place in a freezer bag. When ready to use, remove in the morning, unwrap, rub with olive oil and place in a medium bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and allow the dough to thaw and rise during the day. It will be ready punch down and roll out in about 8 hours.

Hey, Billy (why do I usually start my posts to you with that?) I tried this last night.

Threw some in the freezer, made a pizza in my Lodge skillet (topped with Gourmet Garden Basil Blend, don't cringe, it's much better than any fresh stuff I could find around here,) and Santa Sweet grape tomatoes, and fresh mozzerella. Really really good.

Made breadsticks with the rest, topped with kosher salt and some rosemary, thyme and oregano and Parm Reg cheese.
Those were great, too! Thanks for the recipe.

It worked well, Billy. My plain eatters (is that a word?) here liked this crust. Crispy on the outside yet soft on the in-.

Have you tried it ?

Not yet. Probably won't until I come home again around the 16th or so.

"William J...... " ROFL

Jean, I've made yours by hand (too lazy to dig out the bread machine) It turned out great. I think the Cuisinart one was one of the first ones I ever made, haven't made it in awhile.
Practice safe lunch. Use a condiment.
