Use this simple pizza dough any time you want to make pizzas or calzones. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Yield: Two 12- or 14-inch pizzas, or 4 calzones

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups warm water (about 110°F)
1 packet active dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 cup olive oil, plus more for greasing
1/2 cup semolina flour
3 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 1/4 teaspoons salt

Directions

Combine the warm water, yeast, and sugar in the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the dough hook. Let the mixture sit until it begins to look creamy or bubbly, about 5 minutes.
Add the olive oil, semolina, all-purpose flour, and salt to the yeast mixture, and mix on medium speed for 10 minutes, until the dough is smooth, scraping the dough hook midway. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface, and knead it two to three times with floured hands to form it into a ball.
Oil a large mixing bowl, add the dough, turn to coat with oil, and cover it with plastic wrap. Set the bowl aside in a warm, draft-free place until the dough has doubled in size, about 1 hour.
