Several people emailed me to ask for this, so here it is! I can't
remember exactly where I got it. It was on a 'clone' site, I think.
It's probably still out there. I made it several times when my sons
were young, and it really was just like the Pizza Hut pizzas we get
here. I was surprised! I left out the garlic and onion powder and the
MSG, by the way.
Title: Pizza Hut'S Pizza Dough
Yield: 1 Serving
Ingredients
1 1/3 c water
2 ts sugar
1 1/4 ts salt
2 tb olive oil
2 tb cornmeal
2 c unbleached all purpose flour
1 c bread flour -- or all-purpose flour
1 ts baking powder
1/4 ts garlic powder
1/4 ts onion powder
3/8 ts MSG
1 1/2 ts instant yeast
Instructions
Bread machine: Add ingredients to machine bread pan in order given or
as per manufacturer's instructions. Set to 'dough' mode.
Food processor: Place water, sugar, salt and olive oil in bowl of
food processor and pulse to dissolve sugar and salt. Add yeast, bread
flour and all purpose flour. Process until a soft ball forms. Remove
from machine and allow to rest, covered with a tea towel, about 45 minutes.
Dough hook: Place water, sugar, salt and olive oil in bowl of mixer
and dissolve sugar and salt. Stir in yeast, bread flour and all
purpose flour and knead with dough hook to form a soft, but not-too
sticky dough (about 8 minutes). Remove from machine and allow to
rest, covered with a tea towel about 45 minutes.
By Hand: In this case, use only all-purpose flour. Place water,
sugar, salt and olive oil in bowl and dissolve sugar and salt. Stir
in yeast, all purpose flour and knead to form a soft, but not-too
sticky dough (about 8-l0 minutes). Allow to rest, covered with a tea
towel about 45 minutes.
(*) For a breadier pizza dough - depending on taste and recipe
requirements, you can add an additional 1/4 tsp. yeast.
Deflate dough very gently before using and allow it to rest a further
15 minutes before using in a recipe. You may refrigerate dough in an
oiled plastic bag for up to two days.
Tender, chewy, dare we say 'commercial' tasting. This dough uses two
leaveners to achieve that chain restaurant texture.
