TOPPINGS
To Make one 16-inch pizza crush (2hrs) Dissolve yeast and sugar in water. Proof 5 minutes. Pour into mixer bowl.
Gradually mix in 2 cups flour and salt using paddle attachment. Change to dough hook. Incorporate remaining flour and mix 10 minutes, or until dough is smooth and elastic. Place dough in a greased bowl.Cover with plastic and let rise 1-½ hours, or until doubled in size. A longer, slower rising time will make a more flavorful crust. Punch dough down. Form into a ball and refrigerate until ready to use. Bring to room temperature before using.
To Complete the pizza (meanwhile plus 20 minutes): Meanwhile, marinate tomatoes in 1 tablespoon olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper for 1-2 hours.
Roll out pizza dough to make a 16-inch circle. Brush with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Arrange marinated tomato slices on pizza dough. Dot with garlic and goat cheese. Bake at 500F in a pizza oven for 10 minutes, or until crust is golden brown. Remove from oven and sprinkle with mint and arugula. Cut into desired number of slices and serve at once.
