Homemade Pizza

Homemade pizza is something simply delicious. What better way to make it taste amazing than make your dough from scratch. If you're a pizza lover like me, well, it is best that you learn how to make your own pizza. It's a lot easier if you're craving for some. Plus, it is also something very fun to do. You will not only enjoy its taste but the process of making it as well. So, let's start.

For the pizza dough: Makes 2 - 2 1/2" Pizza Dough
• 2 Tbsp Yeast
• 1 Tsp White Sugar
• 1 Cup Warm Water
• 2 1/2 Cups Flour
• 2 Tbsp Olive Oil
• 1 Tsp Salt

Directions:

  1. In a medium-sized bowl, put in flour and salt and mix it until well combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, put in water, yeast, and sugar and mix it until well combined. Leave it for 1 minute.
  3. In the bowl with the flour and salt, make a hole in the middle and pour in the water, yeast, and sugar mixture. Mix with a fork, spoon, or spatula until it forms a dough.
  4. Once it already forms a dough, you can now use your hands. Sprinkle a bit of flour on the surface and place the dough on the surface. Knead the dough for about 10 minutes.
  5. Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl and cover it tightly with cling wrap. Leave for an hour.
  6. Sprinkle flour onto the surface and place the dough on the surface. Using a rolling pin, roll it to desired shape and thickness.
  7. Place rolled out dough on a pizza pan.
  8. Brush a bit of olive oil on the dough to give it some flavor. It's also nice to mix olive oil with garlic powder and brush it on the crust.

Before preparing for your pizza topping which is the best part, it is best to preheat your oven at 230˚C.

For the tomato sauce, you can use any tomato sauce that you want. Others might use white sauce if you wish.
For the toppings, you may add anything you wish to add. I basically went to the meat route in two of my pizzas.
• On the first pizza, I just placed in ham and pork loin.
• On the second pizza, I just place pepperoni.
For the cheese, I used mozarella cheese because it is one of my all time favorite. You can use any cheese that you wish to use.

Place it in the oven once it's all ready and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown.

Once perfectly baked, take it out of the oven and enjoy your very delicious homemade pizza!
