Dissolve sugar in water and add yeast.  Stir gently until disssolved
(about 1 minute). Let stand until the yeast foams slightly
(about 5 minutes) to insure that the yeast is effective.  Combine
3 cups of the flour and salt in a large bowl.  Pour in the yeast
mixture and oil if you are using it. Begin kneading the mixture,
gradually adding enough of the remaining 1/4 cup flour so that the
dough is no longer sticky. Continue kneading until the dough is smooth
and elastic (another 10−15 minutes by hand). Shape dough into a ball
and put in an oiled bowl, turning the dough to coat it with the oil.
Let rise until doubled in bulk (45 minutes to 1−1/2 hours, depending
on the yeast and the temperature). Punch down the dough and shape
into 1 or 2 pieces. The entire recipe will make two 12 inch pizzas.
Shape the dough either by hand or with a rolling pin, stretching out
as necessary to achieve a thin dough. For a lighter crust, let the
dough sit for a half hour after shaping before constructing pizza
and baking.
