I've been thinking lately that it would be fun to make a home made pizza. Anyone have a good sauce recipe?

Very nice. :) Now that you've made pizza dough, try making your own bread. Made a loaf of German Rye (AKA Pumpernickel) tonight. Came out perfectly. Did a loaf of white bread the other day and man was it good. Does anyone happen to have a good recipe for Jewish (New York) Rye?

Two hours? My bread dough has been rising in the fridge for about 9 hours now, and it's only halfway risen. That's only the first rise, there are two more to go after that.

It was pretty easy, the only annoying thing is waiting two hours for the dough to rise.

You can make it rise faster. Stick the bowl with the dough on top of another bowl filled with hot water. It'll rise in half an hour or 45 minutes. When making pizza dough I usually do an entire 5lb bag of flour in a day, 3 batches of dough for 6 crusts total. Keep one or two in baggies in the fridge and freeze the rest. That way when you want pizza you've always got dough on hand and ready to go.

Thanks for the tip. This was kind of a test run, now that I know it works I plan on making larger batches and freezing a lot of it.
