Method (preview)

1. 1

   Blend the yeast with two cups of flour and the salt.

2. 2

   Add the water and the oil and mix to form a dough.

3. 3

   Add more flour as necessary until you can knead the dough.

4. 4

   Knead for about 6 minutes.

5. 5

   Put the dough in a bowl and allow to rise for about 45 minutes.

6. 6

   In the meantime, preheat the oven to 400F and prepare your toppings.

7. 7

   Split the dough into two pieces and roll into two medium size pizzas.

8. 8

   In the U.

9. 9

   S., you can use bread flour to make the pizzas.

10. 10

    If so, the dough should be strong enough to handle spinning in the air.

11. 11

    For that to work, though, do not knead the dough (or punch down) after it has risen!

12. 12

    If you want to spin, it'll probably go easier if you just resort to using all the dough for one large pizza.

13. 13

    If you don't have parchment paper, roll out or spin your pizza dough and then place it on a cutting board liberally dusted with cornmeal.

14. 14

    Put the toppings on the pizza and then do the same sliding trick before (although it's good to check, just beforehand, that the pizza doesn't seem stuck anywhere to the board).
