How To Make three cheese pizza

• 1

  At least 30 minutes before baking, preheat your pizza stone or oven tiles to 450 degrees.
• 2

  Flatten the dough and form into a ball by folding the left side two thirds over onto the right side.
• 3

  Flatten the dough, pushing from right to left.
• 4

  Turn a quarter turn and repeat.
• 5

  Repeat this rapidly until you have a cushion of dough smooth on the bottom.
• 6

  Now turn the dough \"smooth side up\" and rotate the dough between your hands while tucking the dough under itself.
• 7

  This will increase the tension on the top of the dough and make a nice ball shape.
• 8

  Flatten the dough into a disk using a floured rolling pin.
• 9

  When the dough resists, allow it to rest a few minutes covered loosely with a towel or floured plastic wrap.
• 10

  Repeat this until you have a circle with a 14 to 16 inch diameter.
• 11

  If the dough is at all sticky, flour both sides heavily.
• 12

  Sprinkle your piel with cornmeal.
• 13

  Roll the dough up on your rolling pin and transfer to the piel.
• 14

  Adjust the dough as needed and quickly assemble the pizza.
• 15

  Brush the surface lightly with olive oil.
• 16

  Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the surface leaving a 1/2 inch boarder.
• 17

  Garnish the surface with the mixed cheeses, add the herbs and drizzle the olive oil over the surface.
• 18

  Add salt and pepper and finish with a sprinkling of parmesan.
• 19

  Open the oven door, position the piel at the back of the stone or tiles and give the piel a few quick jerks to make sure the pizza is loose and will slide.
• 20

  Pull the piel back and the pizza will slide onto the stone.
• 21

  Bake for 12 to 15 minutes.
• 22

  The cheese should be bubbling and the edges should be browning lightly.
• 23

  *Recommended herbs: oregano, thyme and basil (mixed)
