Makes 2 (12 inch) pizzas

DOUGH:
1 (0.25 oz) envelope active dry yeast
1 cup lukewarm water
3 cups all purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 Tablespoons shortening

SAUCE:
1 Tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 (6 oz) can tomato paste
6 fluid oz water
1/2 teaspoons white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon dried marjoram
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine flour, salt and shortening. Stir in the yeast mixture. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl, and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rice in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 45 minutes.
Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Saute onion until tender. Stir in tomato paste and water. Season with sugar, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, basil, oregano, marjoram, cumin, chili powder and red pepper flakes. Simmer 15 to 20 minutes.
Divide dough in half and spread onto pizza pans. Cover with sauce and desired toppings. Bake at 400 F for 20 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
