Herb Pizza Dough Recipe

Ingredients

1 package		Active dry yeast
1 teaspoon	5 ml	Sugar
7/8 cup	210 ml	Warm water - 110 degrees
1/4 cup	60 ml	Italian seasoning
2 1/4 cups	540 ml	Flour
1 tablespoon	15 ml	Flour
1/2 teaspoon	2.5 ml	Salt
1 tablespoon	15 ml	Garlic and olive oil - as needed
—		Oil and cornmeal for bread

Mix the yeast, sugar, and warm water. Let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes.
In the work bowl of a food processor equipped with a steel blade, chop the herbs. Turn off the machine. Add flour and salt.
Turn the machine on and off a couple of times. While the machine is running, add yeast. Process until the dough forms a ball on the side of the bowl. Add the garlic olive oil and process for 30 to 40 seconds more.
Transfer the dough to a bowl that has been greased with olive oil. Turn the dough until the entire surface has been coated with the oil. Cover the container with a damp towel and let it rise in a warm, draft-free place for 1 hour or until doubled.
Stretch over a lightly floured surface and if the dough is too elastic, try tossing it from one hand to the other to flatten it. Lightly grease the pizza pan with a little oil and sprinkle with cornmeal. Place the dough in the pizza pan and trim the edges. Bake for 10 minutes at 425 degrees.
Remove from oven, lightly brush the crust with a little more oil. Top as desired. Makes enough dough for one 12" crust.
