Homemade Pizza Dough

This is my mom's recipe and it has always been in the family.  I grew up watching my mom make the homemade pizza and it is so delicious to eat.  Here is a recipe on making a pizza dough.

Recipe     Makes 2 pizza (thin) or 1 pizza (thick)

1 pkg. active yeast
1 c. hot water
2 Tbsp. margarine
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 c. warm water
3 1/2 c. flour

Add the yeast to 1/4 cup of warm water to activate the yeast. Add the rest of the ingredients together and knead until smooth and does not stick to your hands.  Make sure you knead well for an optimized taste result.  Make your own toppings. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes.


See how easy it is!? It require very simple ingredients to make a pizza dough.  I personally like to use melted butter with garlic powder, garlic salt, and parsley flakes and brush them on the edge of the pizza dough for a better taste. I then make my own topping and then sprinkle some of garlic salt & powder and parsley flake on top of my toppings right before baking it. It brings out more Italian flavor in a pizza.  Enjoy!
