    Title: Pizza Margherita
    Categories: Pizza, Breads, Cheese
    Yield: 8 Servings

    3/4 lb Pizza Dough
    Semolina or cornmeal for
    - dusting
    1 tb Olive oil
    1/2 c Tomato Sauce
    2 oz Mozzarella: sliced 1/8"
    Salt & fresh black pepper
    1/2 c Loose pack fresh basil
    - thoroughly rinsed
    1/4 c Fresh grated Parmesan cheese

    Place a pizza stone, baking tiles or an inverted baking
    sheet on the bottom or on the lowest rack of a cold oven;
    preheat for 30 minutes to 500ºF/260ºC or the highest
    setting.

    Place dough on a lightly floured surface and pat into a
    disk. Use a rolling pin or your hands to roll or stretch
    the dough into a circle that is 1/4" thick and 10" to 12"
    in diameter. Tranfer to a semolina or cornmeal dusted
    pizza peel or inverted baking sheet.

    Brush the dough with a little of the olive oil to the
    edge. Spread tomato sauce over the dough to within 1/2" of
    the edge. Distribute mozzarella slices over the tomato
    sauce and season with salt and pepper. Arrange basil
    leaves over the mozzarella, reserving a few for garnish if
    you wish. Sprinkle with Parmesan. Drizzle with the
    remaining olive oil. Carefully slide the pizza onto the
    heated pizza stone and bake for 6 to 8 minutes, or until
    the bottom is crisp and browned and the top is bubbling.
    Garnish with the reserved basil leaves, if desired.
