Homemade Pizza Dough

6 c. flour

1 Tbsp. salt (original recipe uses 1 1/2 Tbsp.)
1 1/2 Tbsp. Yeast
3 c. warm (lukewarm) water

Mix together and let sit on counter covered loosely for 2-4 hours.  Dough will be very sticky, take amount (about the size of an orange or grapefruit) and add flour to it to make more like pizza dough (so it isn't sticky) and spread out with hands to make pizza.  What dough you don't use, you can refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.  Putting corn meal on the surface you are using is helpful to keep dough from sticking to surface.  Top with your favorite toppings and bake 400 degrees till toppings are cooked and bubbly (15-20 minutes).  

The whole recipe makes 6-8 large individual pizzas.


** You can also make bread with this recipe by letting dough rest for 30 minutes before baking and putting in bread pan and cooking at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes or until done (knife comes out clean).
