Pizza

You can prepare a pizza easily from start to finish without cleaning with work bowl between steps.
First, grate and shred cheeses and reserve. Second, prepare the dough, residual cheese in the
work bowl will just add flavor. Then slice or shred any toppings such as vegetables and cooked
meats. (If you use raw meats, you will have to wash and dry the work bowl and blades used.)
Finally prepare your sauce. Remember – go from dry to wet. Pizza toppings can be as creative as
your individual taste. But remember, too much of any topping will make your pizza wet and soggy,
no matter how long it is baked.

Pizza Dough

Makes 14 ounces dough to make:

One 15-inch pizza  -or-

Two 8 -10-inch pizzas  -or-

Four 5 - 6-inch pizzas

Combine yeast, sugar and warm water in a 1-cup liquid measure with pour spout. Stir to combine
and let stand until the mixture is foamy, about 5 minutes. (Note: If the mixture does not become
foamy, the yeast is not active, discard and begin again with fresh yeast.)

Insert metal blade. Place flour, salt and oil in work bowl. Process 5 seconds to combine. Scrape
work bowl. Add cold water to yeast mixture; stir. With the machine running, add the yeast mixture
in a steady stream, as fast as the flour will absorb it. When the mixture forms a ball, process for
one minute to knead. Remove dough, dust lightly with flour and place in a 1-quart resealable food
storage bag. Press out air and seal. Let dough rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in size,
about 1 hour.

mometer. Let meatloaf stand in pan for 10 minutes. Drain if necessary, remove, slice and serve.

Ginger Chicken & Vegetable Stir-Fry

The hard part of stir-fries is the preparation – with the LPP it is simple and quick.

Makes 2 - 3 servings

Freeze chicken until hard to the touch but still easily pierced with tip of sharp knife, about 20 to 30
minutes. Meanwhile, prepare vegetables. Insert metal blade and turn on machine. Drop garlic and
ginger through feed tube and process until minced, about 10 seconds. Remove and reserve.
Insert shredding disc. Pack carrots in feed tube and shred. Remove and reserve. Insert slicing disc
and slice remaining vegetables separately. Remove and reserve. Slice semi-frozen chicken. Toss
chicken with 1-1/2 teaspoons cornstarch. Stir together remaining cornstarch and water; reserve.
Combine broth, soy sauce, and sesame oil; reserve.

Heat work or large stick free skillet over high heat. Add 1-2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Stir-fry
chicken, in batches if necessary, until firm. Remove and reserve as done. Add more oil between
batches as necessary. Add remaining vegetable oil to wok or skillet, reduce heat to medium-high
and cook ginger and garlic, stirring, until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Add carrots and stir-fry for 
15 seconds. Add remaining vegetables and stir-fry until just tender, about 1 minute. Return chicken
to skillet along with broth mixture. Raise heat and cook until bubbling. Lower heat and stir in 
cornstarch mixture, cook just until thickened. Season to taste and serve immediately.
