Add your favorite spices in the flour for extra flavor:
3 Tablespoons.Italian Herbs1 Tablespoon Turmeric6 ClovesMinced Garlic1/2Cup Romano Cheese-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Directions for Dough:
1st Evolution:
Preheat oven to 450F and place pizza stone on lower rack. Later while usingpotholders and a pizza peel you will remove the hot pizza stone from the oven.
Then place the pizza peel with pizza stone on a heat protected surface. Spreadout the pizza dough on the pizza stone. The pizza dough will start to cook on thepizza stone while you build your pie. Lastly you will slide the assemblage on thepizza stone off the pizza peel back into the oven and cook until done.
*Note: Actually I purchased the pizza stone to use on the gas grill for baking homemade naan bread and
most often I use a square baking pan to make pizza and have use the round pans with holes in the
bottom. One of the things that causes pizza dough to fail while baking is too much moisture from
toppingsless is more!
2nd Evolution:
In an adequate size container mix warm water, two teaspoons of dissolvedorganic sugar, dry yeast, and let proof 10 minutes or until foamy.
3rd Evolution:In a large mixing bowl combine flour and salt. Add the optional dry spice
ingredients if desired during this step (Italian spices, turmeric, garlic, and groundRomano cheese).

Directions for Toppings: To make my favorite 5 White Cheese Pizza.
*Note: Cooking removes moisture. Since the ricotta is a wet cheese it should be used sparingly as a base
and the pizza crust will benefit if partially cooked first. Using larger quantities of vegetable toppings will
require additional cooking time and could challenge you between removing moisture verses burning the
crust. Therefore you might want to consider pre-baking the vegetables to remove moisture content
before using them on your pizza if using vegetable en masse. Pepperoni can be degreased in themicrowave while pressed between two plates with paper towels. Meats should be precooked before
placing them on your pizza unless you are using fast cooking items like shrimp. One of my personal meat
favorites on a personal size pizza remains kosher hotdogs.
1st Application:
Coat crust with extra virgin olive oil, chopped garlic, minced anchovies (optional),and pesto sauce. Omit the anchovies if your homemade ethnic version of pesto
already includes anchovies like mine.
2nd Application:Spread on a layer of whole milk (not skim milk) ricotta cheese as the substitute
for tomato sauce on a white cheese pizza.
3rd Application:Add the last four of the five cheeses, Swiss (my secret hidden flavor that causes
less to seem like more in a number of food recipes), mozzarella, provolone, and
ground Romano. *Also adding feta or changing the types of cheeses altogether isup to you while captaining your own pizza destiny.
4th Application:
Add pre-blended Italian seasoning, garlic, fresh basil, fresh oregano, freshspinach, portabella mushrooms, olives, artichoke hearts, thinly sliced onion,
diced peppers, sundried tomato in olive oil, fresh tomatoes with the seedsremoved, and sausage or other Italian meats from Otto's on Woodstock Blvd in
Portland, Oregon.
