Steps:
- Position 1 oven rack in the center and the second rack on the bottom of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Sprinkle the cornmeal over 2 rimless baking sheets. Roll out each piece of Pizza Dough into a 10 to 11-inch-diameter round. Transfer 1 dough to each prepared baking sheet.
- Drizzle 2 teaspoons of oil over each Pizza Dough. Sprinkle the mozzarella over the Pizza Dough, dividing equaling and leaving a 1-inch border around each pizza. Arrange the tomato slices in a single layer over the cheese. Sprinkle with the Parmesan. Arrange basil leaves on top, drizzle with a little more olive oil and sprinkle garlic all over. Bake the pizzas until the crusts are crisp and brown on the bottom and the cheese is melted on top, about 15 minutes. Drizzle 1 teaspoon of oil over each pizza. Sprinkle with basil for garnish and salt. Cut the pizza into wedges and serve immediately.
- Mix the warm water and yeast in a small bowl to blend. Let stand until the yeast dissolves, about 5 minutes. Mix the flour and salt in a food processor to blend. Blend in the oil. With the machine running, add the yeast mixture and blend just until the dough forms. Turn the dough out onto lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, about 1 minute. Transfer the dough to a large oiled bowl and turn the dough to coat with the oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm draft-free area until the dough doubles in volume, about 1 hour. Punch the down dough and divide into 2 equal balls. (The dough can be used immediately or stored airtight in the refrigerator for 1 day.)

12 MISTAKES YOU MAY BE MAKING WITH FRESH BASIL | TASTE OF HOME
From tasteofhome.com
Estimated Reading Time 8 mins
- You’re adding it too soon to your dish. When cooking with heat, the rule is to add dried herbs early and fresh herbs late. While dried basil takes time to soak up liquids and release its flavor, fresh basil leaves will simply wilt and lose their potency if cooked too long.
- You’re not using enough basil. If you’re substituting fresh basil for dried, adding it too soon is only one possible misstep—the other is not using enough.
- You’re throwing away the stems. The first step to prepping fresh basil leaves for use is to remove the stems, right? But if you’re tossing the stems away, you’re also tossing away some great opportunities to add flavor.
- You’re using the wrong type of basil. One of the most common types of basil is sweet basil. It’s so common that it’s usually just labeled as basil.
- You are refrigerating basil. One of the most effective ways to store fresh herbs and keep them fresher longer is to put them in a glass of water, then in a plastic bag, and put the whole thing in the fridge.
- You’re not freezing basil. Dried basil is an option for long-term storage, of course. But if you love the particular taste of fresh basil, you’re missing your chance for year-round summery flavor.
- You’re not pruning enough. Basil grows quickly, and while it can be tempting to let that explosion of growth happen, it can lead to tall stalks with few leaves.
- You’re not harvesting enough—or too much. As with pruning, you should harvest your basil regularly to encourage the growth of new replacement leaves.
- You left the pretty flowers. The basil plant produces pretty purple-blue flowers. It may seem a shame to get rid of them, but if the plant is putting its energy into growing the flowers, it isn’t growing leaves.
- You’re not feeding it enough. It’s almost impossible to overfeed basil plants. Compost, fertilizer, mulch… it loves it all. It will gobble down everything available.
