Directions:
Stir yeast into 1/2 warm water, mixing
completely. Blend in 1 cup of flour, mixing well. Cover bowl and let rise in
warm place for half an hour or so or till the starter is full of bubbles. Stir
the salt into the remaining flour, mix well, and add to the starter. Pour in
all but 1/4 cup of the water, and start beating by machine at slow speed and
gradually increase to medium, or mix completely by hand. Knead for a good 5
minutes, adding additional drops of water till as needed till the dough is
smooth.
When it forms a smooth ball that includes all the flour from the sides of the
bowl, transfer to a floured board and knead several times till smooth and
elastic, and holds it's shape when bent back and forth between your hands. Form
dough into a ball, dust with flour, and place in a lightly floured bowl. Cover
and let rise till doubled, about 2 hours. To finish the dough, turn out onto a
floured surface and knead for 2 minutes. You may now use it by either forming
into 8 individual pizzas, or divide it into 4 pieces, making one pizza for two
and freezing the rest into 3 remaining balls, well wrapped..
