I recently purchased your Cook'n Recipe Software and love it! I have tried several other cookbook programs but found them unsatisfactory.

My main goal was to put my own recipes into a system that was easy and quick. I have put in about 20 so far, and I love it. It is so easy to use.

I have tried several of your recipes and they all have been wonderful!

Thank you!!

	Basic Pizza Dough

Serves: 2

Makes enough for two 13 x 9-inch rectangular pizzas

Al Forno’s dough owes its earthy flavor to the use of three types of flour: white, whole wheat, and stone-ground cornmeal.

   1 cup water, warm
   1 envelope yeast, dry, active
   1 teaspoon sugar
   2 teaspoons salt (kosher or sea)
   3 tablespoons cornmeal, fine white
   3 tablespoons whole wheat flour
   1 tablespoon olive oil, extra-virgin, plus oil for the bowl
   3-3 1/2 cups flour, unbleached, all-purpose, or as needed

Organize all of your own recipes with the Cook'n Recipe Software. Watch and see how easy it is!

1. Place the water in a large bowl and add the yeast and sugar. Stir to dissolve and let sit 5 minutes, then stir in the salt, cornmeal, whole-wheat flour, and oil. Gradually stir in enough all-purpose flour to form a dough that comes away from the sides of the bowl. Knead the dough on a floured work surface, or in a food processor or mixer fitted with the dough hook, until smooth and elastic. The dough should be soft and pliable, but not sticky. Kneading should take 6 to 8 minutes.

2. Lightly oil a clean large bowl. Place the dough in the bowl, brush the top with oil, and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free spot until doubled in bulk, 1 to 2 hours. Punch down the dough.

3. Let the dough rise until doubled in bulk again, 40 to 50 minutes. Punch it down. Divide the dough into 2 equal pieces. Shape each into a ball, then flatten them slightly so they resemble thick disks. You’re now ready to make the pizzas.
