Pizza Dough
Ingredients
Method
- Combine the above ingredients and knead until dough is smooth, approximately 5 minutes with a dough hook, or 10 minutes by hand.
- Cover dough with a damp cloth or with cling wrap and leave in a warm place to proof until dough has risen to double in size (alternatively, if using a proofer, proof at 35 C at a humidity level of 85 for 45 minutes).
- Punch dough down and scale to 60g. Roll each piece of dough into a tight, smooth ball and leave to rest for 10 minutes.
- Roll or press out dough as thinly as possible on an oiled tray (or on an oiled piece of aluminium foil, or on a piece of silicon paper).
- Spread pizza base with pizza sauce, lay on toppings.
- Bake in a pre-heated oven at 220 C for about 12 minutes.
