Made this last night, modified for the mixer (instead of hand kneading)
HERBED PIZZA DOUGH
2 3/4 c bread flour plus 1/2 cup flour for "working" the dough
7 oz warm (105F - 115F) water
1 TBSP yeast
1 TBSP mixed herbs for pizza (oregano, parsley, etc.)
1 TBSP chopped sun-dried tomatoes
1 tsp salt
Cooking spray
Dissolve the yeast in the water until foamy (about 10 minutes). Place in
mixer bowl and add salt, herbs, dried tomatoes and flour.
Knead on low (speed 2 on Kitchen Aid) until ball forms and climbs up dough
hook (takes about 5 minutes). Place in bowl that has been sprayed lightly
with cooking spray. Cover and set in a warm place to rise (1-2 hours).
Makes a crust for a large (12" or more) pizza.
You can probably knead this by hand for 10 minutes and get the same results.
I topped the pizza with onions I dredged in flour and lightly sauteed in
some cooking spray and some cooked, sliced potato. Baked on a perforated
pizza pan for 20 minutes at 425F. It was very good.
