Serves 8 people
Ingredients
- 2 c. warm water
- 2 T. brown sugar

- Whisk together and let proof. (Get bubbly, about ten minutes time.)
- 2 T. olive oil
- 1 1/2 t. salt
- 5 c. bread flour
Directions

Add the rest in order and mix together well. Then knead 5 minutes or so. Cover and let rise. Roll out two large crusts from this dough and bake. Before I had my pizza oven, I use to roll out my dough and put it on a pizza peel sprinkled with corn meal. (You can buy the pizza peels at restaurant supply shops.) Then I would put my toppings on and slide the pizza onto tiles that were preheated in my 500 degree oven. (You can buy the tiles through a tile shop or a cooking catalogue.) It would take about 8-12 minutes to have a nice crispy pizza. I would then pull the pizza out with a long handled pizza peel (also bought at a restaurant supply shop) and slide it directly onto a pizza pan.
