Yid.Dish: Herbed Pizza Dough
*Recipe adapted from How It All Vegan!: Irresistible Recipes for an Animal-Free Diet
1 1/2 cups tepid water
1/4 oz packet yeast
1 tsp salt
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried basil
1/2 tsp dried rosemary
3 cups flour
Preheat oven to 350. In a medium bowl, whisk together the water and yeast until dissolved. Add the salt and whisk again. Stir in the flour and herbs and knead dough for about three minutes. Set aside and let dough rise for 20 minutes in a warm, draft-free place. Knead again and if the dough is too sticky, add a bit more flour. Let the dough rise for another 10-20 minutes (or longer). Roll out dough onto a pizza pan and prick all over with a fork before adding all your goodies! Bake 30-40 minutes.
Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
— Joel Brown, Forward board chair
