Joe Miko requested a pizza dough recipe a couple of days ago that
will work in a DAK Turbo Baker II. That's the kind of bread machine I
have--and here's the pizza dough I've been making (and am very
pleased with). I have been told that the DAK and Welbilt machines
need a slightly different dry to wet ingredient ratio than other
bread machines--and I'm not sure in which direction, so others may
need to experiment.

This is an adaptation of the pizza dough recipe on page 522 of
Ornish's "Program for Reversing Heart Disease".

I generally start the dough about 2 to 2-1/2 hours before I want to
cook the pizza.

Set DAK Turbo Baker II machine on "white bread" and "manual". I also
use the "turbo" setting.

Place ingredients in bread machine.

I then let the dough run through "manual" cycle (doesn't bake). It
beeps off, and usually by the time I am ready to use it, the dough
has risen to the top of the baking pan.

Preheat oven to 450 F.

Punch down dough, take out of machine, knead for about 1 minute. I
put it on a floured surface. Stretch the dough with your fingertips
to form a circle. It should be flat in the middle and thicker around
the edges. My husband uses a rolling pin, and usually turns up and
crimps the edge.

Sprinkle corn meal over a pizza stone or heavy baking pan and then
transfer the dough to the stone or pan.

Place toppings and herbs on pizza, and bake for 10 to 15 minutes,
until the crust has browned.

Yield: 1 Pizza (12")
