I have to admit I seldom have pizza and when I do I buy whole wheat dough all made at the store. Toppings sound wonderful. Nancy

To: [email protected] Date: Saturday, January 30, 2010, 5:19 AM Pizza DOUGH: 1 pkg. active dry yeast 1 cup warm water, (110 to 115 degrees) 1 tablespoon granulated sugar 3-1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon salt Sprinkle the yeast into the warm water; stir in sugar; let stand 10 minutes, until mixture begins to bubble. (For those with a visual impairment, you’ll be able to detect the bubbles when you lightly touch the surface of the liquid.) In a large bowl, combine flour and salt and pour all at once into the yeast. Beat to get a stiff dough. (Not all the flour will incorporate.) On a lightly floured surface, knead dough until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Place in a greased bowl; turn dough to grease all sides. Cover with a towel and let rise in a warm, draft-free area until doubled in size. Punch down but do not let rise again. Roll to fit a cookie sheet or to fit a 14-inch pizza pan. Grease hands lightly and stretch dough gently to fit the pan, leaving edges slightly thicker than the rest. Fill with topping, (see below). TOPPING: 1 pound Italian sausage or Jimmy Dean sausage 2 green bellpeppers, diced 1 large onion, chopped ½ cup Ragout Pizza Quick Pizza Sauce 1 tablespoon barbecue sauce, (optional) 10 to 12 ounces shredded Mozzarella cheese Black olives Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly brown sausage. Place paper towels on a paper plate, and place the browned meat on the paper towels to drain. Reserve 2 tablespoons fat in the pan. Saute bellpeppers and onion in reserved drippings. Combine pizza sauce and barbecue sauce and spread over dough. Arrange sausage pieces around the edges of the dough. Inside the ring, spread cheese,, then the sautéed vegetables, and top with olives. Bake for 25 minutes, until filling is hot and bubbly. NOTE: This is a little time-consuming but worth the effort. A cookie sheet is fun to use, because you will have rectangular pizza slices. (It’s the little things. ) I use Jimmy Dean’s sausage because it adds a different flavor and texture from the usual Italian sausage. Add or disregard whatever ingredient you don’t like. Have fun with it.
