I usually use this recipe to make Pizza base.. usually thin crust. I kneaded about 3 times the required quantity and made one 16 inch pizza and a small loaf out of it. Sorry no Pizza pictures.. But fresh Pizza is always awesome. I rolled out the dough after its first rise, put on olive oil glaze, some thinly sliced bell peppers, onions, cherry tomatoes, garlic, mushrooms, thai chillies, basil, cilantro and topped it all nicely with asiago cheese. Baked it at 425 degrees F for about 12 minutes! Awesomeee!!
