Haven't been in for awhile, busy produce season. Last Sunday was a chicken alfredo pizza, never made one. Excellent with the sourdough crust, shrooms, sauteed peppers, onions and just a touch of 'mater sauce. Pizza night tomorrow, it is up in the air except for sourdough crust.
 
Um, the crust is the only thing that’s supposed to be up in the air!:p:p:D:D
 
I make a mean crust and it easier than you think, simple too, 2 cups of all purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of yeast, sugar and garlic salt, 1 cup or so of warm water raise for 2 hours in a warm area, stretch or roll out to your pan then cover and let raise again on your pan for 2 more hours, best crust Ive tasted
 
Substitute beer for the water if you have a connection to get warm flat beer somewhere. ;)
 
I think somewhere in this thread I posted my wife’s crust recipe. She’s been doing that for years.
 
Beer crust

3/4 c beer
2 1/4 c flour
1tbsp sugar
1 tbsp oil
1/2 tsp salt
1 Tsp yeast
 
OMB, my wife is wondering if your crust is sticky with less flour and more liquid than she uses. She does use a bread machine to knead it. How about you?
 
I use a Cuisinart to mix the dough then take the same bowl and cover it with plastic wrap to ferment and rise then i use Crisco to lightly grease my pan
 
ok Ill go into a bit a detail, I mix all the dry ingredients in the Cuisinart then i take the dough out and clean the bowl and spray oil inside the bowl, add the dough back in and its kind of sticky, after it ferments its more sticky and thats good
 
The phrase she used was “sticky as all get out.” I bet that kind of sticky is too hard to work with!
 
yes you need either flour or oil on your hands, I just grab a handful of flour and throw it on the sticky dough then it makes it easier to handle
 
I find that interesting, but it’s her that I have convince!
 
Oops, she has an alternate idea!
 
We don't call 'em SWAMBO for nothing....
 
Just got my dough started. Not sourdough today.

2 C unbleached flour
2/3+ C water
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp yeast

I put ingredients in a bowl, grease my pan with lard, then mix the dough and knead about 30 times with my greasy lard hand. Works for me. My hands are 2xl so kneading that about with one hand works well.

Left over home sketti sauce from my farm ingredients for sauce, 5 cheese pizza mix and X sharp cheddar. I'll make up some sausage shortly. Fried farm onions and peppers too.
