I Make Pizza
I make pizza about once a week here at home and I am always experimenting with different crusts and sauces.
I plan to add much more to this page and I also hope to hear from some of you with your sauce and dough recipes or anything on the subject of pizza. Email your ideas
This is a recipe only and not a complete lesson
on how to make and handle dough but I plan on doing a complete article on dough
making in the near future.
This is my favorite dough recipe.
This recipe works well for a New York style pizza and I also use it for a cast
iron pan pizza.
It makes a world of difference in browning and flavor to divide this in two
separate containers
and leave it in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours and up to 48 hours before
using it.
One batch of dough, (two 20 oz. dough balls), makes two 16" pizzas.

Here is a pretty decent pizza sauce recipe
No Cook Pizza Sauce
28 oz can whole tomatoes
1 small can tomato paste
1 to 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 Tbsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried basil
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
You can play around with the salt,sugar and pepper but start small, taste and
add as needed.
Crush the tomatoes by hand or in a blender/food processor.
Stir in all the rest of the ingredients and thats about it.
Use right away or put in a jar or covered container in the refrigerator and it
gets even better in a few hours or over night.
