Title: White Pizza
Categories: Main dish, Appetizers, Italian, Cheese/eggs
Yield: 4 servings

MMMMM---------------------------CRUST--------------------------------
1/4 c Water
1 T Yeast
2 t Sugar
3 1/2 c Flour, all purpose
1 c Water
1 T Olive oil

MMMMM--------------------------TOPPING-------------------------------
3/4 lb Mozzarella, shredded
2 T Olive oil
1/2 c Basil, fresh
1 T Red Pepper Flakes
1/4 c Parmesan cheese

Proof yeast in 1/4 cup warm water with 1 teaspoon sugar. Mix
remaining ingredients (except water), add yeast mixture. Then add
warm water until the mixture forms a soft ball. Knead. Allow dough
to rise until doubled. Place on greased pizza pan.

Marninate mozzarella in olive oil for an hour or more. Mix in basil
and hot pepper flakes. Spread cheese and herb mixture on crust. Top
with parmesan cheese.

Bake in preheated 400 degree oven until golden and cooked through,
about 20-25 minutes.

Cut and serve. Serves 4 as a main dish, or serves 8-12 as appetizer,
cut into bite sized pieces (2" squares).

(I also like to occassionally top with mushrooms and reconstituted
sun-dried tomatoes.)
