and undissolved yeast. Gradually pour water and oil into

elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes. Continue following direc-
tions for rising and baking.
RISING AND BAKING
Place dough in 2-gallon
(7.6 L)
plastic bag, pressing out
excess air. Let rise for several hours or until doubled in
bulk. Punch down dough. Divide into 8 pieces. Lightly
coat each piece in flour and cover. Flatten each piece into
a disk on a lightly floured surface. Roll into 6"
(152)
to 8"
(203)
circles. Lightly flour circles. Cover.
Preheat Wolf oven to 500°F
(260°C)
and turn on convection
fan. Place as many circles as will fit on bake stone using
lightly floured pizza peel. Bake 2 to 3 minutes or until
puffed and golden brown. For best results, allow oven to
heat 5 minutes between batches. Cool on wire rack.

mixing well after each addition. If dough is too dry, add water,
