    TimNga,
    i like spin's for thinner crust, this one for deep dish, still looking for a good pan pizza as we have some good greek pizza places in the area that make a great greasy pizza. havent figured out their dough yet or how to get the oil splatter crunch that i like so much on those pizzas, spraying oil on the crust doesnt seem to get it right.

    My favorite recipe for pizza dough involves me driving to my local Publix or Winn Dixie Supermarket....Going to their bakery....and asking for freshly-made pizza dough.....Then going home.....rolling and pounding the bujeezus out of it...and going from there.....Leave the dough to the experts I say.....[p]Ed McLean

    Herm,
    here it is did not think it would have been that popular cause of the whole weat that is why i had'nt posted it but here it is[p]ok here we go..... 1/4 cup warm water and 1 Tbs of yeast
    let stand 10 minutes.

    then you add 1 cup of hotest tap water(just run hot water a few minutes)
    1/4 cup sugar
    2tbs of evoo
    then add whole weat flour t'ill ya get a nice managable dough do not add too much flour cause you will end up with a hard crust!! its easy to tell just go with the feel.
    then seperate in 3 balls .put them in very well sprayed bowls then just spray the balls well also!! (pam)cover let rise in a warm place for 1 hour no more then that!! then take them out, roll out into pizza size you want then you can let raise another 1 or so!! what i do is cut out parchement paper to size then i actually roll ou the crust with a rolling pin!! to carry them i just slide on a pizza plate to transfer to egg and then back in the house to serve!!

    enjoy

My wife and I are having a pizza party at our home in Mayf (looking to do about 14 pies maybe more :=). I cooked pizza on Monday.... first one was awesome second one the crust got burnt... same cook time. Any tips suggestions for cooking multiple pies appreciated.[p]Thanks, Pharmeggist

    mad max beyond eggdome,[p]Thanks Max...I might have to do stromboli for you at Waldorf this year and at a ccompetition for Sydney.[p]That typing is embarrassing, thats what a new laptop, trying to do some CAD drawings, and reading the forum at the same time will do. Oh well. Have a great day Max.[p]Chuck

    Spin,[p]I made up a batch of your New York style dough tonight and it was a hit with the family. Nice texture, good crispiness for thin pizzas. Thanks !

    mikeb6109,
    How much flour do you use or do you not measure? Do you make your dough by hand or in a mixer? Just trying to figure out the best way to make it, plan on using it either tonight or tomorrow. Thanks!

    Gene613,
    i kneed by hand only it is a small batch only makes 3 thin crusts...so i had i'd say around 2 tp tree cups of floor i go by texture. normaly what you look for is a nice manageable dough but it does need to be dry!!! that is the secret.
    good luck everyone that has tried it never fails its a fool proof recipe i beleive!!

    mikeb6109,
    I will give it a try tonight then and let you know how it turns out. I will only be using it to make 2 pizza's though one for us adult type and one for the kids well I should say one for the OLDEST child who is picky, the other 2 only eat the toppings off the pizza and they wont eat pepperoni so it will be onions, bell pepper, mushrooms and what ever else we have!!! I will post and let you know how it turns out.

    Chuck, It turned out pretty good. I'm amazed that so many pizza recipes that are so similar in ingredients and quantities can taste so different from each other![p]Gwen
