{"0":"1.\tWarm the garlic cloves in the olive oil over low heat until the garlic begins to brown. Discard the garlic and let the oil cool. (Or do like I do, and use about a tablespoon of minced garlic, and don't discard it after infusing the oil.)","2":"2.\tWhile the olive oil cools, sprinkle the yeast into the water and let proof for 10 minutes. Then add the cooled olive oil. Stir in the salt, whole wheat flour, about 1 1\/2 cups of the white flour and herbs and mix well. Continue to add white flour until it seems doughy enough to knead. Knead by hand, working in more white flour as needed, for 6 to 8 minutes.","4":"3.\tLet rise in bowl 45 minutes.","6":"4.\tDefrost cheese","8":"5.\tSlow cook onions - if used","10":"6.\tPreheat oven to 450 degrees","12":"7.\tRoll out dough to make two pizzas.
