PIZZA WITH FIVE CHEESES

FOR THE CRUST:
1 package active dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons olive oil
3/4 cup cool water
Butter for greasing bowl
FOR THE TOPPING:
1/4 cup Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup mozzarella, shredded
1/2 cup plain goat cheese, sliced
1/2 cup sharp white cheddar, shredded
1/4 cup Parmesan Reggiano, grated
5 fresh sage leaves, torn
salt, freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil

TO PREPARE THE PIZZA DOUGH:
Dissolve the yeast in the warm water and set aside to proof for 10 minutes.

Place the flour in a food processor.

In a measuring cup, combine the salt, honey, olive oil and cool water, and mix well. With the motor of the food processor running, slowly pour in the honey mixture. Add the dissolved yeast, and continue processing until the dough forms into a ball. If the dough seems sticky, gradually add flour until it holds its shape. On a lightly floured work surface, knead dough until smooth. Set aside in a buttered bowl for 30 minutes.

Divide the dough into four equal parts, roll each piece into a smooth ball and place the balls on a baking sheet, making sure to space them far from one another. Cover with a damp dishcloth and refrigerate.

One hour before baking:
Remove the dough from the refrigerator until it's at room temperature.

TO SHAPE AND BAKE THE PIZZAS:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

Lightly flour a work surface. Flatten each ball into a circle approximately 6 inches in diameter, making the outer edge of the circle slightly thicker than the center. Turn the dough over and repeat. Lift the dough from the work surface and gently stretch its edges, working clockwise to form an 8-inch circle. Place the dough on a lightly floured baking sheet and top it.

Divide cheeses (except for Parmesan) into four and sprinkle evenly over all pizzas, then sprinkle with olive oil.

Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the crust is light brown and cheese is bubbling. Remove from oven, slice and serve.
