Total Time: 48 hrs 15 mins Preparation Time: 48 hrs Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

• 16 ounces bottled water (room temperature)
• 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon yeast (not rapid-rise yeast)
• 13 ounces bread flour
• 12 ounces hi-gluten flour (such as bouncer)
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 cup cornmeal, for tossing dough

Recipe

• 1 dissolve sugar and yeast in water.
• 2 combine flours and salt in a mixer using a paddle.
• 3 when yeast solution begins to foam, pour into flour along with oil. use a dough hook to mix until all ingredients come together. knead with dough hook for 5 minutes. place dough in a plastic bag and then into your refrigerator for two days.
• 4 make the sauce by pureeing the crushed tomatoes in a blender until smooth, then combine all ingredients in a small saucepan over medium heat. when mixture begins to bubble, reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. remove from heat and cool, then chill in a covered container until you make your pizza.
• 5 when you are ready to make pizza, preheat a convection oven to 450° (or conventional oven to 475°).
• 6 divide the dough in half. form half of the dough into a dough ball on a lightly floured surface. sprinkle cornmeal on a clean flat surface and begin to stretch out the dough, using your hands until you have stretched it enough to fit on a 14-inch pizza screen. lay the dough the screen, and stretch it to form a perfect circle to the edge of the screen.
• 7 spoon a thin layer of sauce over the pizza dough leaving about a 1-inch margin at the edge.
• 8 sprinkle about 4 cups of the shredded cheese blend over the sauce. don't worry if some falls the edge of the dough.
• 9 sprinkle about 2 cups of sliced italian sausage on the cheese. don't worry if some falls on the edge of the dough.
• 10 bake pizza for a little-bit over 10 minutes or until cheese and crust begins to brown.
• 11 while the pizza bakes, make the garlic oil spread by melting margarine in microwave oven or in a small saucepan over low heat. use a mortar and pestle (or your fingers and a small bowl) to crush the dried parsley into smaller bits. remove melted margarine from the heat and add parmesan cheese, parsley, garlic and salt.
• 12 when pizza is done, remove it from the oven and brush crust with garlic oil spread. use a pizza wheel or sharp knife to cut pizza into 8 slices. repeat process for second large pizza.
• 13 makes 2 large pizzas.
