ingredients & directions
Ingredients:
7 gram active yeast
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 cup water, warm
2 1/2 cups plain flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons semolina or polenta

Directions:
Combine the yeast, salt, sugar and water in a small bowl. Stand, covered with a plastic wrap, in a warm place for 10 minutes or until the mixture is foamy. Sift flour into a large bowl. Make a well in the center, add the yeast mixture, mix to a dough.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 5 minutes or until smooth and elastic. For thick pizza, roll dough out to 35cm round. For thin pizza, divide dough in half and roll out each portion to 35cm round.
Brush a 30cm pizza tray with oil, sprinkle with semolina or polenta. Place dough on tray; tuck edges under to form a rim. Top and cook according to recipe.
