Mwah! Grah-tzie!

We made homemade pizza and bread sticks and they were TO DIE FOR. Oh my, trust me. These were not only beautiful to look at but they were beautiful to eat!




Is your mouth watering? It should be.
Here's the recipe for the dough. Try it. You won't regret it.
This is the recipe for one pizza:
1 1/2 cups warm water
1 1/2 tbsp honey or sugar (we did honey)
3/4 cup cooked grains (do a one or a combination of many kamut, oat groat, wheat, whole millet, whole quinoa, spelt, barley, sweet rice, etc.)
1 1/2 cups flour
1 tbsp yeast
Mix well. It will be a little runny. Let it sit and sponge for 10-15 minutes. Then stir to release the air. Then add:
2 tbsp olive oil
1 cup flour (to separate sponge from salt)
1 tsp salt
Mix/Knead. Add flour a little at a time while mixer is kneading until dough pulls away and cleans sides and bottom of mixing bowl. Knead 10-15 minutes.
Form into a ball. Spread oil all over ball. Let it relax 5-10 minutes. Roll out to desired size and thickness. Place it on a piece of parchment paper.
Bake a couple of minutes. Pull out of oven and place toppings on dough. Put back in oven. Cook a total of 5-9 minutes in an oven at 450 - 500 degrees. Mmmmm!
