SOFFICISSIMA !! PIZZA AL TAGLIO/ con impasto della rosticceria palermitana !!

In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture and olive oil.

Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out to fit a greased baking sheet or pizza pan.

Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over the sauce, then add oregano, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes if using.

Top with olives and bell peppers if desired.

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.

Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, slice, and serve.
