The crust or pie base is the key part to the successful pizza pie recipe. Once you've mastered the technique of making your own pizza base, you can move on to picking your toppings. The choice is yours; let your imagination and taste buds go to work. Just check out the local market and see what you can find to top that delicious pizza pie. There is actually a two (2) step process for making your pizza, here we go... first you will have to make the base; secondly you will enjoy adding your favorite toppings. That's It. Here are the ingredients that are essential for your base: yeast, flour, sugar and water, salt optional. Or add your salt to taste when your pie is complete.

With the base complete, you can then spread the tomato paste evenly over the top, adding a little oregano to taste. Then comes my favorite part, add your toppings.

Now for the making of your base: Mixing hot water and sugar allowing the sugar to complete dissolve put your yeast into mixing cup. Mix the ingredients together making a pie dough. Then while letting the yeast rise for a bit, prepare your toppings, some of them will need to be chopped or minced, pre-cooked, etc. Turn oven to 350 while you prepare your toppings.

When the dough is right, lay it down flat and shape it. You can make any shape pizza you like, it is Your Homemade Pizza and made to Order. One of the fun things about making my pizza at home is the enjoyment in the making of it. Choosing my toppings and the shape of the crust.

Now spread the tomato sauce evenly over the top. Covering the entire pizza. Finally, you may now put the toppings on, do you want them on all the pie or half, maybe just one slice worth? Place it in your preheated oven for approximately ten minutes, checking it periodically to see for doneness. And "tada", you have your own homemade pizza hot and ready out of your own oven. Ready to be sliced, if you have a rolling cutter use that, if not a typical kitchen knife will do just fine.
