Papa John's puts sugar in everything. The dough... the sauce... even the f*cking cheese.
It's not like they're overloading.
Special Garlic Sauce
1/2 cup margarine spread
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Pizza Sauce
1 10 3/4-ounce can of tomato puree
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon oregano
1/8 teaspoon basil
1/8 teaspoon thyme
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
PIZZA DOUGH INGREDIENTS:
Water - 3/4 cup, at a temperature of 110 deg F to 115 deg F
Yeast - "active dry" type, 1 packet, or: up to 1 tablespoon of bulk active dry yeast
Sugar - white cane type, 1/2 to 1 teaspoon for yeast and 1 to 2 teaspoons for dough
Salt - pinch for yeast and 1/2 to 1 1/2 teaspoons for dough
Flour - 1 3/4 cup unsifted "All Purpose" flour (I like "King Arthur"-brand flour.), plus some to use while kneading dough
Olive Oil - about 1 tablespoon, partly for oiling dough before spreading sauce and partly for drizzling on top of pizza just before baking (and, if not cooking on a pizza stone, for oiling pizza pan)
