GRANDMA'S PIZZA

Steps:

• For the dough: Combine the flour, salt and yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment. Stir to combine, then add 1 cup water. Mix on low speed until the dough comes together into a rough ball. Continue mixing at medium-low speed until the dough forms a smooth, silky ball, about 10 minutes. Form the dough into a tight ball, set in the bottom of the mixer bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place until the dough has roughly doubled in size, about an hour.
• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
• Cut the dough in half; you should have enough for two 9-by-13-inch baking sheets. You can make both pizzas now, or hold the dough in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• Lightly oil one or two 9-by-13-inch baking sheets. Add the dough and press down on it to spread it toward the edges. You won't be able to get it all the way to the edges, so spread it as much as you can without tearing. If the dough isn't stretching well, cover and let rest at room temperature for 30 minutes, then stretch again.
• For the sauce: Put the tomatoes, olive oil, basil, garlic and some salt in a blender and puree until smooth.
• For the topping: Spread the sauce all the way to the corners of the dough. Top the sauce with the mozzarella and sprinkle with black pepper and chile flakes if using. Bake until the dough is crisp and the cheese is melted, 10 to 12 minutes. Top with the basil and some Parmesan and serve.

GRANDMA-STYLE PIZZA DOUGH

Steps:

• Combine 1 envelope active dry yeast (about 2 1/4 teaspoons) and 1 1/2 cups warm water (105-110°) in a large bowl; let stand until yeast starts to foam, about 10 minutes.
• Mix in 2 tablespoons olive oil, then 2 cups all-purpose flour and 2 teaspoons kosher salt. Add another 2 cups all-purpose flour, a cup at a time, mixing until incorporated and a shaggy dough forms.
• Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until soft, smooth, and elastic, 10-12 minutes. Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Chill 24 hours.
• Coat an 18x13" rimmed baking sheet with 1/2 cup olive oil.
• Gently and gradually stretch dough until it reaches the edges of baking sheet. (If dough springs back or is stiff to work with, let it rest 10 minutes before continuing. You may need to let it rest more than once.)
• Cover dough on baking sheet tightly with plastic wrap and let sit in a warm place (but not too warm!-about 70° is ideal for yeast to grow) until it is puffed and full of air bubbles, 30-40 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a cast iron skillet.

Stir until all of the dry ingredients are absorbed. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for a few quick turns just to even out the dough. Handle the dough as little as possible. Pat into a flat circle, and place into the prepared pan.
• Bake the bread for 40 to 45 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the edges are golden.
