Hi, I'm Stephanie Barnett on behalf of expertvillage.com. Let's turn this pizza dough into this pizza pie. Our next ingredient is unbleached white flour, I use organic flour and that is really important. You don't want a GMO flour made from GMO wheat. So make sure you buy organic it helps support the farmers and it is much healthier for you. This recipe calls for one and three quarters cup flour but do not add all of it at once because depending on the humidity of the day it can really change. Add one heaping cup of flour to your wet ingredients, take a wooden spoon, not your whisk, cause at this point your whisk will just get all clogged up. You're going to carefully stir that together, now I'm going to put three quarters of a cup more flour in the measuring cup. But it doesn't necessarily mean I'm going to use all of it, because next we are going to be kneading the dough. You just want to make sure all the liquid that the dough is not too sticky and that all the liquid is incorporated. It is getting pretty incorporated so I'm going to measure three quarters of a cup of flour and when we knead the dough we'll be adding the dough to the board. Maybe we can add a little bit more here cause it is sticking to the spoon a little bit. But it is not going to take more in this bowl, so it's still sticking to the spoon there and I add a little bit more (get it off the spoon) and then we will be ready for kneading.
