This was the first recipe Jon learned from his Mom, because, damn it's good pizza!
Dough -- make about 2 1/2 hours before serving
1 package active dry yeast (2.25 tsp)
About 4 1/2 c. all purpose flour (have 6 c available for kneading/rolling)
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 c. water
In large bowl, combine yeast, 2 cups flour and 1 teaspoon salt. In small saucepan, heat water until very warm (120 to 130F.).
With mixer (or kitchenaid with paddle) at low speed, gradually beat water into dry ingredients until just blended.
