Instructions

1. In a medium liquid measuring cup dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let stand until foamy, about 3 to 5 minutes. Insert metal blade in work bowl and add flour, olive oil and salt. Add cold water to yeast mixture. With machine running, on LO pour liquid through feed tube as fast as flour absorbs it. Process until dough cleans sides of work bowl and forms a ball. Then process for 30 seconds to knead dough. Dough may be slightly sticky. Coat the dough lightly with olive oil, place in a plastic food storage bag and seal the top. Let rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes.

2. Place dough on a lightly floured surface and punch down. Roll into desired crust size(s) and follow pizza recipe.
