Maybe a new Christmas Eve tradition? My oldest Nate walks us through his recipe for homemade pizza dough and the sauce. It's great and a lot of fun to make.
Pizza Dough Recipe:
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups water (90-95 degrees F)
2 1/2 teaspoons fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon dried bread yeast
4 cups flour
Directions:
1. Dissolve salt in warm water. Do the same with the yeast. Add flour and mix together until dough formed. Let it rise for 20 minutes.
2. Turn out dough and dust lightly with flour. Knead for about a minute. Skin of the dough should be smooth. Form into a ball and place seam side down into a lightly oiled bowl. Cover tightly and set aside at room temperature for 2 hours.
3. Turn out dough and cut into 4 smaller parts. Shape into 4 round dough balls being careful not to tear the dough. Place them on a plate or pan (allow for expansion) and cover with plastic wrap. Put in refrigerator overnight.
4. Take out the doughballs 90 minutes prior to making pizza.
