Human: I'd like to make a homemade pizza from scratch. Could you provide a good recipe for the dough and the topping etc?

Assistant: Absolutely, I'll try to suggest a range of options to give you some flexibility depending on what you prefer. What kind of ingredients would you like to use?

Human: Well, I'd first like to make a basic dough. And then I'd like tomatoes, cheese, maybe anchovies or some seafood for the topping, also, maybe mushrooms?? Or red onion..

Assistant: I see. Let's try a few different approaches to pizza. Are you sure that you don't want a traditional Italian pizza, with tomato sauce, cheese, and sometimes other vegetables? That would be easy to make.

Human: I'm open to ideas. Let's see this Italian pizza then..

Assistant: Here's an easy recipe:

Ingredients

1 tbspn salt

1 tspn dried oregano

1/2 cup warm water

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

1/2 packet yeast, (or a pinch of active dry yeast, to make a "quick dough", 2 min rest)

2 cups flour


Instructions

Mix salt and oregano in warm water and set aside to let yeast or dry yeast activate. In a separate bowl, mix yeast with olive oil, flour and salted water, stirring for 5 minutes until combined and crumbly, about 3 minutes. Let rest at room temperature for 2 minutes. Knead dough for 5 minutes on a clean surface, about 1 minute. Dough should be slightly firm but not hard. Form a ball and place it in a bowl, then cover and leave to rest for 1 hour.

Human: Okay thanks, and what about the topping, and cooking it?

Assistant: 
Here's one way to do that:
