Stir in 2 more cups of flour until it is too hard to stir, then take it to the floured board and knead in remaining flour. Continue to knead dough until smooth and firm. Place in an oiled bowl, and allow to rise in a warm spot, until doubled. Spread dough onto oiled pizza pan, allow to rise for 10 to 20 minutes.
