How to Make New York Style Pizza Dough
- In a large bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- Add salt and olive oil to the yeast mixture. Stir to combine.
- Gradually add flour, one cup at a time, mixing with a wooden spoon or your hands until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Add more flour if the dough is too sticky.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough to release the air. Divide the dough in half (or more, depending on desired pizza size).
- Shape each dough portion into a ball. On a lightly floured surface, gently roll or stretch each ball into your desired pizza shape and thickness (aiming for about 1/8 inch thick for a classic NY slice).
- Transfer the stretched dough to a pizza pan or pizza stone. Add your favorite pizza sauce, cheese and toppings.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 450-500°F (232-260°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
