This wonderful recipe makes 2 pizza crusts and is the one my family has been enjoying for years.
1 pkg active dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water
1 tsp sugar
1 cup milk
1 tsp salt
1/8 tsp baking soda
2-3 cups flour
Dissolve sugar in warm water. Add yeast and let stand 10 minutes until bubbly, then stir well with a fork.
Combine milk and salt in measuring cup and heat in microwave for 1 minute. Let cool a little so not too hot for yeast.
Combine milk and stirred yeast in large bowl. Measure out 2 cups flour and add baking soda to it. Add to yeast mixture. Mix until smooth. Stir in remaining flour as needed. Knead on floured surface until smooth and elastic. Grease bowl and dough with vegetable oil. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 1 hour. Press dough onto 2 greased pizza pans. Cover with your favorite toppings and bake at 400 for 20 minutes.
