How to make your own pizza at home..


Who likes to eat pizza? And can you tell me,who does not like to eat pizza? I am pretty sure that most of you would like to have even a bite on a delicious pizza.It has a delicious taste which we cannot resist,but yet,it is quite expensive.Do you ever wanted to baked your own pizza at home?You can save more money by just doing it at your own home.So now,let me show you on how to make pizza at home and the recipe.


Things you will need:

1. Unbleached flour,

2. Active dry yeast,

3. Extra virgin olive oil,

4. Small can of your favourite crushed tomato,

5. Shredded mozzarella cheese,

6. Oregano and parmesan cheese,

7. Granulated sugar.


Okay,this is the instructions to guide you on how to make the pizza:

1. Measure out 1 cup warm water.1/2 tablespoon of salt.2 tablespoon of olive oil,1 tablespoon of sugar and heaping teaspoon full of dry yeast.Put in bowl and let yeast dissolve for a couple of minute and swish everything around until sugar,salt and yeast are dissolved in water.Then add 2 cups of flour and mix until dough comes together.If dough is soft,add additional flour until u get a nice stiff dough that does not stick to your hands.Cover and place in draft free place for one hour or until dough has doubled.

2. If you have a baking stone great,just preheat oven to 475 degrees with the stone in place and use a peel for your pizza.Just slide pizza from the peel onto the stone.If not,use any pan about 14 inches long or square.Oil the bottom of pan and after removing dough from bowl,shape it into the pan.Spread it with you hands as close as possible to the shape of your pan.Mince about a teaspoon of onion and saute in olive oil.When onion is slightly brown,add one minced clove of garlic and add this to crushed tomatoes.Pour about six ounces of tomato sauce and spread to within 1/2 inch of border.Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and torn fresh basil.Then grind some fresh ground pepper on it and add mozzarella on top.Do not forget to sprinkle some oregano on top.Now you can add any topping that you like but the standard toppings such as pepperoni or sausage are delicious.

3. Your oven should have been set at 475 degrees.Place your pizza in the oven and cook for 12 to 15 minutes,or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.Take out of the oven,slice with pizza wheel cutter or a mezza luna and feast.
