Pizza

This weekend, the Oafs cooked pizza.  We used an Oaf family recipe, and it was delicious.  We followed spoken directions passed down only in stories for generations, we repeated the steps aloud frantically mixing ingredients before the words were forgotten.

Here is the only pizza that should ever be made.

3 c. flour
1 tsp. salt
1c. hot water
1tbsp. yeast
1tbsp sugar
1/4 c. olive oil

Combine flour and salt in a food processor and set aside. In 1 cup of warm water stir in the sugar and then the yeast and set aside. Once the yeast mixture starts to bubble pour it into the flour salt mixture and pulse the food processor until it is a ball. Put the ball in a bowl, cover and let sit.


This is how we made the crust, putting the dough in a bowl and letting it rise for about an hour and a half or until the dough had reached about twice it's original size before rolling it out.


We rolled the dough, transferred the dough on to the pizza peal, then spread the sauce and sprinkled the cheese.



After sliding it into the oven and cooking it at 500 degrees till the edges were golden brown, we pulled it out, sliced it up into triangles and squares and ate several pieces. The oafs enjoyed it greatly.


We hope you enjoy this recipe and create pizza joys for yourself someday.
Kisses,
