Pizza Dough

Directions

Adopted for the Breadkmachine. Half dough (i.e. makes 2 pizza crusts, 9 inch (23cm) or one bigger one)

NOTE: Optional storage if not used directly:

--> Put into small bakin pan lined with a kitchen towel, cover with a second towel and refrigerate for up to 48 hours - remove from the fridge and let stand at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before forming the pizza.

--> For longer storage, slip each flour-dusted ball into a plastic freezer bag, seal tightly and freeze for up to 1 month. Before use, place the frozen dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover loosely with plastic wrap, and let thaw overnight in the refrigerator or for about 2 hours at room temperature. The thawed dough should be puffy and soft to the touch.
