PAN PIZZA DOUGH

Pan Pizza Dough image

This is dough to recall the pillowy, golden, butter-crisp pies served at Pizza Hut in the 1990s, a favorite of the chef and pizza consultant Anthony Falco. He gave me his recipe for it in 2018, part of his recipe for pan pizza, but it's terrific under your favorite pizza sauce and whatever toppings you desire. You might like sausage and peppers, or sausage and anchovies, or plain with extra cheese. But give black olives, provolone and thinly sliced red onion a shot sometime. Plan ahead, though. The recipe may recall corporate delivery pizza dough. But its preparation takes time to proof and to develop flavor. That's why it's better.

Time 20h30m

Yield 3 pies

Number Of Ingredients 6

1000 grams unbleached all-purpose flour, approximately 8 cups
30 grams kosher salt, approximately 1 1/2 tablespoons
700 grams lukewarm water, approximately 2 3/4 cups
60 grams unsalted butter, preferably high-fat European-style, approximately 1/4 cup, melted
40 grams olive oil, approximately 3 tablespoons, plus more to grease pans
5 grams active dry yeast, approximately 1 3/4 teaspoons

Steps:

  • Combine the flour and salt in your largest mixing bowl. In another mixing bowl, combine the water, butter, olive oil and yeast. Mix well.
  • Use a rubber spatula to create a well in the center on the flour mixture, and add to it the liquid from the other bowl, stirring with the spatula and scraping down the sides of the bowl to bring everything together. Mix it all together until it is a large, shaggy ball of wet dough, cover with plastic wrap and allow to sit for 30 minutes.
  • Uncover the dough and, with floured hands, knead it until it is uniformly smooth and sticky, approximately 3 to 5 minutes. Move the dough ball into a clean mixing bowl, cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise for 3 to 5 hours at room temperature, then refrigerate, at least 6 hours and up to 24.
  • The morning you want to make the pizzas, remove the dough from the refrigerator, divide into 3 chunks of equal size (about 600 grams each) and shape them into oblong balls. Use olive oil to grease three 10-inch cast-iron skillets, 8-inch-by-10-inch baking pans with high sides, 7-inch-by-11-inch glass baking dishes or some combination thereof, and place the balls into them. Cover with plastic wrap, and let rise at room temperature, 3 to 5 hours.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I'm not a very experienced cook, so I had a hard time following the instructions. The dough also didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked.
