Grandmother'S Pizza - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    5 c. plain bread flour
    1 1/2 tsp. salt
    1 tsp. sugar
    2 pkg. yeast
    2 c. warm water
    4 Tbsp. oil
Preparation
    Mix together flour, salt and sugar. Dissolve yeast in warm water. Add yeast mixture and oil to flour, stirring to make soft dough, but not sticky. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; add more flour if dough is sticky. Knead about 10 minutes or until dough is smooth and elastic. Put dough in lightly oiled bowl; brush with oil. Cover with towel. Put in a warm place. Let rise until doubled in size (about 2 hours). Remove dough from bowl; punch it down on a lightly floured surface. Divide into 2 equal balls. Cover and let rest 10 minutes. Taking 1 ball at a time, roll out in a circle about 14-inches in diameter. The dough should be thinner at the center
    than at the edge. Place each circle on a pizza pan or baking sheet. Pinch the edge of dough up to form a rim. Prick lightly all over with a fork. Fill with favorite filling. (Yields 2 pizzas.)
