I use a stand mixer to make this dough in about 3 minutes, but you can mix by hand. Use a large bowl and a wooden spoon to mix all the ingredients, holding back about ½ cup of flour. Use the final flour as you finish kneading the dough by hand to a smooth ball. It should take about 5 minutes of hand kneading. The dough freezes very well, as will a par-baked crust. Use for calzones, pizza, focaccia.
