Rapid Rise Pizza Dough

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's a rapid rising pizza dough I've been making since it appeared in an issue of Eating Well magazine in 1992. It's really terrific for when you decide at the last minute you MUST have pizza.
4-4.5 c flour
2 pkg Rapid-Rise yeast
2 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
2 tsp olive oil

Stir together 3 c. flour, yeast, salt, sugar. Heat 1 3/4 c. water and olive oil to 125-130 degrees. Gradually stir water/oil into dry ingredients. Mix well. Add enough of the remaining flour to make a soft, firm dough. Turn out onto floured board and knead 8-10 minutes. Cover with plastic and let rest 10 minutes.
