- 1/4 cup corn meal
- 1/4 cup whole wheat flour

- 2 teaspoons light brown sugar
- 2 packages dry yeast
- Sauce, cheese and toppings of your choice
Recipe method:
- Measure 1/2 cup warm water in a bowl.
- Add sugar and yeast and stir to dissolve.
- Let stand at least 5 minutes to proof. Froth forms on top.
- Meanwhile, sift together into a large bowl the white flour, wheat flour, corn meal and salt.
- Make a depression in the middle and add 3 tablespoons of the olive oil and 1 cup warm water.
- Add yeast mixture.
- Mix all ingredients with your hands and gather together and place on floured board.
- Knead about 10 minutes, adding more flour if dough is sticky, to form a smooth, elastic mass.
- Grease a large bowl with olive oil.
- Add dough, turning it to coat top.
- Cover and let rise in warm place, draft free location until doubled in size about 45 minutes.
- While dough is rising prepare desired sauces and toppings.
- Divide dough into 6 equal pieces and, on floured surface, roll out to desired shape about 1/2 inch thick.
- Coat both sides of shaped crust with olive oil, then place on grill directly over fire until upper surface begins to bubble, about 2 minutes.
- Fire must be very hot and grill must be clean. Coals should be red with a small flame, like a steak fire.
- Watch crust closely and rotate with spatula if necessary.
- Remove crust and turn cooked side up. It should be golden brown.
- Brush with olive oil, sauce, cheese and desired toppings.
- Sprinkle some olive oil over each pizza.
- Return for final cooking, 2 to 4 minutes, rotating for even cooking.
