QUICK-RISE PIZZA DOUGH3 cups flour 1 package quick-rising yeast 2 teaspoons salt 1/2 teaspoon sugar 1 cup water 2 to 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil Combine flour, yeast, salt and sugar in food processor fitted with dough blade. Process to mix. Combine water and 2 tablespoons of the oil in small saucepan or microwave-safe container. Heat until instant-read thermometer reads 125-130 degrees F. With food processor running, slowly pour in heated water mixture; process until dough forms into ball. Continue processing 1 minute or more to knead dough. Turn onto lightly floured surface, cover with plastic wrap and let rise 30 minutes. Divide dough into 6 balls. On floured work surface, roll out each ball into circle about 6 inches in diameter and about 1/8-inch thick. Brush both sides with olive oil. Dough is ready to grill or bake.
