ingredients
1 package dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water, PLUS"PLUS" means this ingredient in addition to the one on the next line, often with divided uses
2 1/4 cups warm water
6 tablespoons olive oil, + extra for pans
6 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
For Topping
coarse sea or kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper
chopped fresh rosemary
chopped fresh thyme
directions
Dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup warm water (105 degrees F is perfect) in a large bowl. Let it sit for two minutes.
Add the remaining water, olive oil, flour, and salt and mix well. Turn out onto board and knead for ten minutes. Place back in the bowl and cover with a damp towel and let rise 30 to 40 minutes.
Divide dough into 3 parts and place in 3 olive-oiled pie pans.
Dimple dough with fingers. Sprinkle the dough with salt, pepper, rosemary, and thyme (using amount as desired).
Let the dough rise another 50 to 60 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
When the dough has risen, bake at 350 degrees F for 25 minutes or until done and just lightly browned.
Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes before removing from the pans. Place the crusts on a rack to cool.
Use as a pizza crust or cut into slices and dip in olive oil like bread sticks.

I halved the recipe and ended up having an arithmetic error and adding a lot of extra oil to the batter. It turned out great though, I think I will add extra oil the next time I bake this.
Lynnb62, the reason water is listed twice is because you dissolve the yeast in 1/4 cup warm water, and then the remaining water is mixed in with the other ingredients. Sugar is not needed for the yeast, it will munch on the flour.
recipe seems a little odd in that there are 2 ingredient listings for water. Could the 1/4 cup water ingredient be sugar?

I made this and it turned out except the yeast needs sugar or honey to activate it. Once I added a small amount of sugar to activate the yeast it turned our great!
I think what the reviewer meant was that s/he left out the step that suggested herbs and kosher salt being applied to the surface of the bread--not the salt in the bread dough itself!

My first attempt at homemade pizza crust and it went over without a hitch. I would rate it at 2 for difficulty. I used this recipe for a pizza crust, leaving out the salt and spice step, and just proceeded with pizza toppings. It was loved by the whole family!
