Pizza dough
Ingredients:
1kg of 0 flour or 800gr of 00 flour and 200gr of semolina
1 teaspoon of fine salt
1 cube of fresh yeast
1 tbsp of sugar
5 tbsp olive oil
600ml of warm water
Recipe:
In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast with the sugar by
adding the two together and mixing a little with a fork. Add the warm water, salt and then the
flour. Begin mixing with your hands very
well and transfer to a tabletop to continue mixing and working the dough. Kneed the dough and sprinkle with flour when
it sticks to your hands or as needed for texture. Open the dough and make some holes with your
fingertips, add the olive oil to the dough and continue to mix. Now put back into a clean bowl and allow the
dough to “proof” or rise. Cover with a
clean, damp kitchen towel or some kind of cover and place in a neutral
temperature area (not in a drafty area).
The yeast will begin to raise the dough.
After about one hour, remove dough and cut into portions
desired. With your hands, gently make
balls with the dough (using flower generously) and allow them to rise for
another 30-60 minutes.
Now with dry hands, make the disks with your hands and try
to keep uniformity in dough thickness as you open the dough for the pizza. You’re now ready to make your pizza as you
wish! To bake, oven temperature should
be at 180C or 350F.
Bake until the pizza bottom is brown.
