Ingredients

  • 1 teas. Salt
  • 1 ½ cup Warm water divided 110F
  • 3 ½ cups Unbleached white flour
  • ¼ cup Corn meal
  • ¼ cup Whole wheat flour
  • 4 tbls. Olive oil divided
  • 2 teas. Light brown sugar
  • 2 pks. dry yeast
  • Sauce Cheese, and Toppings of your choice

Instructions

  • Sauce, Cheese, and Toppings of your choice
  • (keep in mind the cooking time of these will be shorter than in an oven.
  • Use toppings that take little time at all (if any) to actually cook and do not
  • overload. Try using a soft or crumbled cheese and a cooked, warm sauce.)
  • DOUGH: Measure 1/2 c warm water in a bowl. Add sugar and yeast and
  • stir to dissolve. Let stand at least 5 minutes to proof (froth forms on top).
  • Meanwhile, sift together into a large bowl the white flour, wheat flour,
  • corn meal and salt. Make a depression in the middle and add 3 Ts of the
  • olive oil and 1 c warm water. Add yeast mixture. Mix all ingredients with
  • your hands and gather together and place on floured board. Knead about
  • 10 minutes, adding more flour if dough is sticky, to form a smooth, elastic
  • mass. Grease a large bowl with olive oil. Add dough, turning it to coat top.
  • Cover and let rise in warm place, draft−free location until doubled in size −
  • about 45 minutes.
  • While dough is rising prepare desired sauces and toppings. Divide dough
  • into 6 equal pieces and, on floured surface, roll out to desired shape about
  • 1/2 inch thick. Coat both sides of shaped crust with olive oil, then place on grill
  • directly over fire until upper surface begins to bubble (about 2 minutes). Fire
  • must be very hot and grill must be clean (coals should be red with a small flame,
  • like a steak fire; this is important). Watch crust closely and rotate with spatula
  • if necessary. Remove crust and turn cooked side up (it should be golden brown).
  • Brush with olive oil, sauce, cheese and desired toppings. Sprinkle some olive
  • oil over each pizza. Return for final cooking (2−4 minutes).
