Farmgirl Susan's Straightforward Pizza Dough Makes approximately two 12-inch pizzas or four 8-inch pizzas
Bread flour 3 cups / 15 oz / 424 grams (plus a little more added while kneading) Instant yeast 1 teaspoon / 5 ml / 3 grams Salt 2 teaspoons / 10 ml / 10 g Lukewarm water (about 90°F, 32°C) 1+1/3 cups / 11½ oz / 325 g
Place the bread flour in a large bowl. Stir in the yeast and salt. Add the water and stir until a soft, but not sticky, dough forms.
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead it for 3 minutes, sprinkling with a little flour each time it sticks to your hands or the counter. The dough should be quite soft. Just knead it by hand; it's easier and faster than getting out your big electric mixer.
Liberally sprinkle the mixing bowl with flour, place the dough back in it, and sprinkle the top of the dough with flour. Cover with a damp tea towel or cloth napkin and set in a warm place for two hours.
After about an hour, place a baking stone on the lowest rack in the oven, and set the temperature at 500°. (You never want to put a cold baking stone into a hot oven, as it may crack.)
