PIZZA DOUGH

Provided by Tyler Florence

Yield 3 pizza crusts

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 package active dry yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
1 cup warm water
1 tablespoon kosher salt
Extra-virgin olive oil
3 cups 00 flour, plus more for dusting

Steps:

  • In the bowl of a standing electric mixer fitted with a dough hook, combine the yeast, sugar, and warm water; stir gently to dissolve. Let the mixture stand until the yeast comes alive and starts to foam, about 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Turn the mixer on low and add the salt and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the flour, a little at a time, mixing at the lowest speed until all the flour has been incorporated. When the dough starts to come together, increase the speed to medium; stop the machine periodically to scrape the dough off the hook. Get a feel for the dough by squeezing a small amount together: if it's crumbly, add more water; if it's sticky, add more flour - 1 tablespoon at a time. Mix until the dough gathers into a ball, this should take about 5 minutes.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and fold it over itself a few times; kneading until it's smooth and elastic. Form the dough into a round and place in a lightly oiled bowl, turn it over to coat. Cover with plastic wrap or a damp towel and let it rise in a warm spot (i.e. over a gas pilot light) until doubled in size, about 1 hour. This is a good time to stick a pizza stone in the oven and preheat them to 500 degrees F.
  • Once the dough is domed and spongy, turn it out onto a lightly floured counter. Roll and stretch the dough into a cylinder and divide into 3 equal pieces. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes so it will be easier to roll out.
  • Roll or pat out a piece of dough into a 12 inch circle, about 1/8-inch thick. Dust a pizza paddle with flour and slide it under the pizza dough. Brush the crust with a thin layer of olive oil, and top with your favorite flavors. Slide the pizza onto the hot stone in the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the crust is golden and crisp. Repeat with the remaining dough.

Time 1h47m

Yield 2 16 'pizza's, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

500 g flour (High gluten pref but regular flour will work)
325 -340 g warm water (110 degrees)
10 g salt
3 g active dry yeast (I use 7 grams or 1 pckg ADY for a lighter crust)
5 g sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • Place water and sugar in mixing bowl, stir to combine and add the yeast. Allow yeast to sit until it starts to bubble 10 minutes or so. Then add the flour and salt.
  • Run mixer on low speed for 2 minutes or until combined. Then run on medium for 10 minutes.
  • Remove the dough from the bowl and form it into a ball. Place the dough in another bowl or even a gallon ziploc bag, and rub olive oil on it to keep it from drying out.
  • Let it rest for 1 1/2 hours or until double in size.
  • Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
  • Cut the dough in half for two regular pizza's or cut it into 4 pieces for thin crust pizza's.
  • Roll out the dough and place your favorite toppings on it.
  • Bake at 500 degrees for about 10-12 minutes. For a pizza with heavy or a lot of toppings, par bake the crust for about 4-5 minutes.
  • Note (I use a pizza stone and preheat the oven for atleast 30 minutes.). I hope you enjoy this recipe!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: This includes using bread flour, which has a higher protein content than all-purpose flour. The higher protein content makes the dough stronger and more elastic, which results in a better crust.
  • Knead the dough properly: Kneading the dough develops the gluten in the flour, which makes the dough strong and elastic. Knead the dough for at least 5 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
  • Let the dough rise properly: After you knead the dough, let it rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size. This will give the yeast time to ferment the dough and produce carbon dioxide, which will create bubbles in the crust.
  • Preheat your oven: Preheat your oven to the highest temperature possible before you bake the pizza. This will help to create a crispy crust.
  • Use a pizza stone: A pizza stone helps to distribute the heat evenly and create a crispy crust. If you don't have a pizza stone, you can use a baking sheet, but the crust will not be as crispy.

Conclusion:

Making commercial pizza dough at home is a great way to save money and enjoy delicious pizza. By following these tips, you can make a pizza dough that is just as good as the dough that you would get at a pizzeria. So next time you're craving pizza, give this recipe a try!
