Pizza

Pizza

Pizza Dough:

  • 2 1/4 teaspoons dry active yeast (1 packet)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons white sugar
  • 1 cup warm water, at about 105 degrees F (41 degrees C)

  • 3 2/3 cups all-purpose flour or bread flour

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt

  • 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter

  • 2 tablespoons corn oil or other vegetable oil

  • Sauce:
  • 1 1/2 cups San Marzano tomato puree (from 1 can San Marzano tomatoes), or plain tomato sauce

  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, or to taste

  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper
  • Pizzas:
  • 1/2 cup corn oil, divided, to grease pizza pans

  • 8 ounces grated sharp white Cheddar cheese

  • 8 ounces grated Monterey Jack cheese
    Directions
  • Stir yeast, sugar, and water together in a bowl; let sit for about 10 minutes.
  • Stir in flour and mix until a dry, shaggy dough forms. Add salt, butter, and 2 tablespoons oil and mix to combine.

  • Knead with your hands in the bowl until dough comes together, then turn out onto the counter and continue to knead until a stiff but smooth dough forms, about 1 to 2 minutes.

  • Return dough to the bowl; rub the surface of the dough with a small amount of oil. Cover the bowl and let dough rise in a warm place until doubled in size, up to 6 hours. Alternately, place dough in the refrigerator to rise overnight.

  • Meanwhile, make the pizza sauce. Blend San Marzano tomatoes until smooth using a stick blender or in the jar of an electric blender. Measure out 1 1/2 cups of the tomato puree and place into a bowl. Stir in 1 teaspoon kosher salt, dried oregano, and cayenne pepper. Refrigerate until ready to make the pizzas.

  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Drizzle 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons oil into a 10- to 12-inch pizza pan.

  • Divide dough into 4 pieces and roll into balls. Keep dough covered when not using. Press 1 dough ball into a round disc and place on the prepared pizza pan. Press and stretch dough flat, almost all the way to the edge of the pan. Poke the dough all over with a fork.

  • Once the dough is properly punctured, top with about 1/3 cup sauce, spreading all the way to the edge of dough. Top the entire surface with 2 ounces each of Cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack cheese.

  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is bubbling and bottom of pizza is browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Repeat with remaining ingredients to make 3 more pizzas.
