Pizza Dough from Scratch?

[jjhunter]

I'm cooking with a co-conspirator this evening to whip up dinner for 30+ people (yes, I'm back to affiliating with that previous co-op), and am hitting a brain fizzle on a key element of ze master plan: good pizza dough recipe?

I need one I can make in quantity for 3 large trays of pizza, and obv. one that doesn't require a super-long rise time; 4-5 hours at most would be ideal.

Any suggestions? I've got all the usual kinds of ingredients to work with, plus lovely industrial-size mixer + bowls. Vegan recipe strongly preferred.

Just wanted to belatedly thank you for the recipe, and to let you know I will (...eventually) do a writeup of the one I ended up using, which turned out very nicely. Am looking forward to doing it again soon and maybe incorporating some of tips and ratios you used here!

And for a tip in return: I've taken to using cornmeal instead of flour re: coating the oiled pan the stretched dough goes on, which is both delicious and better at getting it not to stick.
