A nice change from typical pizza crusts. Prep time includes rising times. Ingredients:
1 package yeast |
1 teaspoon sugar |
1/2 cup water |
2 tablespoons water |
1 cup all-purpose flour |
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
1/2 cup whole wheat flour |
3/4 teaspoon sea salt |
2 teaspoons olive oil |
1 1/2 tablespoons cornmeal |
1/8 cup olive oil |
2 cloves garlic, minced |
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano |
Directions:
1. Stir yeast and sugar into warm water and let proof until foamy.
2. Mix flours and salt in separate bowl.
3. Create a well in the center: add yeast mixture and mix until dough begins pulling away from side of bowl.
4. Add oil.
5. If dough sticks to side of bowl, add more flour, one tablespoon at a time, until dough leaves side of bowl but is still soft.
6. Place dough in oiled bowl, turning once to coat.
7. Cover and let rest in warm, draft-free area until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
8. Remove from bowl and punch down.
9. Mix together the olive oil, garlic, parmesan and herbs.
10. Using your hands, work this into the dough.
11. Cover and let rise until doubled in size again.
12. When ready, remove from bowl and shape crust.
13. Add desired toppings, and bake in a preheated 425-degree oven for about 20 minutes.
