Making a good dough from scratch is surprisingly easy is use roughly 2 cups of flour with 1 cup of water that is about 108 f with about 2 teaspoons of yeast . Add alittle salt , sugar and olive oil mix it together in a ball and let rise for at least 2 hours but I would recommend 4 or more . Comes out looking like the pizza I posted here yesterday.

What was holding me back was not understanding how to create strength and tension in the dough, and realizing the bottom of my skillet could serve as a pizza stone. That and going fully metric, since I don't like to bother with sifting.
