Gondola's Thin Pizza Crust

By HeatherS

Ingredients

• 1 tsp. sugar
• 1 envelope traditional yeast
• 1/4 cup oil
• 1 1/4 cups flour
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 cup luke-warm water
• 1 1/2 cups flour
• 1/2 tsp finely ground oregano
• 1/2 tsp black pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Combine first five ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Stir in warm water. In a separate bowl combine remaining ingredients. Add 1/2 cup at a time to the dough. Knead for about 5 minutes and let rest for about 20 minutes in a warm room. On a well-floured surface, roll dough into a very thin sheet. Cut to fit a pan. Make sure the pan is dry and floured. Freeze for at least three hours. To prepare pizza, place toppings on top of your favorite sauce and frozen crust. Make sure the crust is completely frozen. Thawing the crust will result in a soggy or thicker crust. The crust should not be exposed for more than 5 to 10 minutes at room temperature. Bake at a high temperature of about 450F to 550F for about 25 to 30 minutes or until done.
