SOURDOUGH PIZZA CRUST

Steps:

• Blend together the dry ingredients in mixing bowl.
• Pour in sourdough starter and olive oil and start machine; adding additional water and flour as needed.
• Knead for approximately 6-8 minutes until dough is smooth and elastic.
• Remove from bowl and form into 1 ball if baking pizza or 2 balls if grilling.
• Place dough in bowl(s) that have been sprayed with non-stick, turning once to coat the top.
• Loosely cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm draft-free place until doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 - 2 hours (depending on your starter and the temperature of your kitchen).
• DO NOT PUNCH DOWN DOUGH.
• Dredge hands in flour and remove dough.
• Holding one edge of dough in the air with both hands and letting bottom touch work surface, carefully move hands around edge of dough (like turning a steering wheel), allowing weight of dough to stretch round to roughly 10 inches.
• Lay dough flat on lightly floured pizza peel (or inverted cookie sheet) and continue to work edges with fingers and stretching into a 14-inch round (or two smaller circles).
• Assemble and bake the pizza according to your favorite recipe.

GRILLED SOURDOUGH PIZZA WITH TOMATO PESTO

Steps:

• Heat a grill to high (note if your grill gets super hot, you might want to do this on med-high).
• In a small bowl, whisk together the pesto and tomato paste.
• Drizzle both slices of the bread on both sides with olive oil. Grill the bread until it is lightly toasted on the bottom.
• Remove the bread from the grill. Spread half of the pesto mixture over the toasted side of each slice of bread.
• Top the pesto with tomato slices, then mozzarella slices and black olives. Season with pepper, then return to the grill.
• Cover, reduce heat to low, and grill until the bottoms are toasted and the cheese has melted, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with basil.
