Papa's Pizza

This method takes about 2 hours from start to finish:

2 Sheet Pizzas
7-1/2 cups bread or all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons sugar
3 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
2 packages of fast-acting dry yeast
2 cup water
5/8 cup buttermilk
3/8 cup extra virgin olive oil

Bread Pan

Instructions:

1. Place the first 5 ingredients in the KitchenAide pot, except 1-1/2 cups of the flour, and attach the flat blade. Turn the mixer on to speed 1 to blend the ingredients and let it run for 1 minute.

2. Put the liquid ingredients in a small bowl and heat to 125-130 degrees in the microwave (about 2 minutes).

3. Turn the mixer on to 1, and moderately add the liquid, then turn it on 2 and mix for about 2 minutes or until well blended.

4. Attach the dough hook to the motor and need the dough set on 3 for 7 minutes, moderately adding the rest of the flour right away.

5. Cover with plastic wrap and allow the dough to rise in a warm place (about 100-110 degrees) for 25 minutes, or until doubled in size.

6. Punch the dough down, replace the plastic wrap cover and let it rise for someone else 25 minutes.

7. Place the dough on a flat covering to divide into two 2 inch rounds. Put one round back into the pot and cover while shaping the other round to fit the olive-oiled baking pan.

8. Brush top of the dough with olive oil, cover with plastic wrap, and allow the dough to rise in a warm place for around 10 minutes or slightly risen.

Turn the oven on to 350 degrees to preheat.

9. Take off the plastic wrap and bake on the bottom rack for 16 minutes or until just browned. Turn the pizza bread once while baking for even browning. While the pizza is browning, shape and put in order the second round for rising and baking.

The pizza bread may be cooled and icy at this point before going to the next step.

10. Cover with the pizza sauce (1-1/2 packets each), cheese, your favorite toppings, and a microscopic more cheeses, and then place in the oven for around 12 minutes or until the pizza is hot and the cheese has melted.

Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before cutting and serving.

Papa's Buttermilk Bread - Pull-Apart Rolls and Pizza Dough

This dough makes great bread, rolls or even pizza. For pizza, just shape on a pizza pan or in a baking pan for a deep-dish pizza, add the sauce (Boboli packaged is good), then the cheese or whatever other toppings you want to add. Great!

Note: I created this recipe for use with my KitchenAid mixer. If you don't have a mixer, you can accomplish the same results by hand.

Bread Pan

30 ROLLS (OR 2 LOAVES)

5-1/2 cups bread or all-purpose flour

4 rounded tablespoons sugar

2 teaspoons salt

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

2 packages of fast-acting dry yeast

1-1/2 cup water

3/4 cup buttermilk (plus 1 T. for small batch, 2 for large)

2 tablespoons olive oil (use light or regular)

1 beaten egg, for brushing rolls

3 tablespoons sesame seeds or poppy seeds (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Place the first five ingredients, except 2 cups of the flour, in the Kitchen-Aide pot and attach the flat blade. Turn the mixer on to speed 1 to blend the ingredients and let it run while you do step 2.

2. Put the water, buttermilk and olive oil in a 2-cup measuring cup and heat to 125°-130° in the microwave (about 1 minute 40 seconds). Add to the pot and beat on 4 for 1 minute.

3. Attach the dough hook, turn on 2, add the rest of the flour immediately and knead for 8 minutes.

4. Cover the pot with plastic wrap and allow the dough to rise for 35 minutes, or until doubled in size, in a warm place (an oven warmed to 100° with light on works well). Punch the dough down and place on a flat surface to shape.

5. For pull-apart rolls, use 2-9"x12½" non-stick pans with high rims (such as a cornbread pan), lightly oiled. Cut the dough into 30 even pieces (or make larger loaves of any shape if you desire). Place them in the pans making 3 rows of 5 each.

Cover them loosely with wax paper and let rise in a warm place for another 25-35 minutes. They should be nicely raised and puffy looking.

6. Brush the rolls with egg.

7. If you like, sprinkle the rolls (or bread) with sesame or poppy seeds. Place them in a 350° oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until they are browned.

Remove them from the pans and place them on wire racks to cool.
