Pizza Dough step by step

1. Put warm water into a bowl with yeast and sugar, mix lightly, let sit for about 5-10 minutes (until thickened).
2. Mix in flour and salt while mixing (I use a fork), then mix in olive oil.
3. Knead dough about 10 minutes, make it into a ball.
4. Put it in a bowl and let it rise(double in size).
5. Preheat oven to 425.
6. Roll it out and add toppings.
7. Cook for about 15 minutes.
8. Tip: you can cut the dough into two and roll it out to make two thin crust pizzas, or you can take the dough and stretch making a more traditional rising crust pizza..
9. Tip: been using the grill lately… Make your dough on a cookie sheet, cook it in the grill on low-medium for about 5 minutes, then put pizza on the grill without cookie sheet for 1-2 minutes. (nice crispy crust).
