Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-make-pizza-at-home#post-583581 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 16:06:21 +0000 twinmama 583581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: My recipe just needs to rise for an hour or two!</p> <p>1 c warm water<br /> 2 tsp active dry yeast<br /> pinch of sugar<br /> 1/2 tsp salt<br /> 1 tbsp olive oil<br /> 3 cups flour (1/4 may be whole wheat or rye)<br /> cornmeal</p> <p>Place the water in a medium large bowl, sprinkle in the yeast and sugar, and stir to dissolve. Let stand for 5 min or until it begins to bubble (I usually don't bother proofing the yeast if I'm using it consistently).</p> <p>Stir in the salt, oil, and 1 c flour. Beat for several minutes with a wooden spoon (or the paddle on the kitchen aid mixer). Add the remaining flour 1/2 cup at a time, mixing after each addition. The dough will be soft but should not be sticky.</p> <p>Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, and knead for several minutes. Place in an oiled bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled in bulk, about 1 hr.</p> <p>Punch down the dough and return to a floured surface. (this is the point you can freeze the dough for future use) Divide the dough into 4 equal parts, knead each quarter for a few minutes and then let the balls of dough rest for 10 minutes.</p> <p>Stretch each ball into a 6 inch circle. Generously sprinkle baking trays (or baking stone) with cornmeal and place circles on top. Bake in the lower half of the oven for 10-12 minutes at 500 degrees F.</p> <p>If I pull the dough out of the freezer at lunchtime, it's usually ready to use for dinner. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-make-pizza-at-home#post-583566 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 16:03:52 +0000 tysonja 583566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We make our own using this recipe -- BEST EVER. must follow cooking instructions, too!

I make tons extra and divide it up and freeze it individually. I just split each ball in half so DH can make his meat crazy pizza and I can have my basil, tomato, and buffalo mozzarella pizza :) Everybody's happy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-make-pizza-at-home#post-583548 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 16:00:07 +0000 blackbird 583548@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've bought TJ's dough, but I also make my own! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-make-pizza-at-home#post-583542 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 15:58:00 +0000 regberadaisy 583542@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually buy dough from the store and occasionally make our own dough! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-make-pizza-at-home#post-583464 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 15:39:07 +0000 Foodnerd81 583464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I either buy the dough, from Trader Joe's or something, or sometimes I make my own from scratch, with yeast and everything. Mine is better, but it requires advances planning-- like letting it rest for 2 or 3 days. But the recipe makes 3 pizzas worth so I freeze the other two and just have to remember to take them out of the freezer. </p> <p>If anyone has a quicker homemade recipe I'd love to see it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-make-pizza-at-home#post-583455 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 15:37:44 +0000 plaidpants 583455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We always make the dough! I love pizza and I really like a thin crust. The hardest part for me is waiting for it to rise...I have no patience when I'm hungry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-make-pizza-at-home#post-583446 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 15:36:47 +0000 autumnlove 583446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BoogieBea: Yum!
