Ingredients

  • 500 g tipo 00 flour

  • 10 g sea salt

  • 0.25 tsp yeast

  • 15 ml olive oil

  • 325 ml water

Directions

  • Combine dry with dry and wet with wet (except keep yeast with wet!!). The dry stuff is to be put in stand mixer bowl, the wet stuff in a jug.

  • Use dough hook in stand mixer and start on 1-2 speed.

  • Pour wet into dry.

  • Allow to combine, scraping in it needed. Speed 2-3.

  • Once it starts to get into actually kneading, let it knead for 7 minutes.

  • Clingfilm the stand mixer bowl and put into fridge overnight.

  • Nearer the time, remove from fridge for 1-2 hours, then split into 3 balls. Pinch dough underneath balls to keep in shape.

  • Put 2 dough balls in oiled container back into fridge for another day.

  • Leave dough ball under clean tea towel for 1-2 hours.

  • Put onto floured surface and start to shape. Push middle (but leave some area in the middle to not over-thin the middle) into outer in order to turn into a disc.

  • {“When you have a slightly wider disc, pick up and do the steering wheel method to stretch into large shape”=>”put hands together around rim and ‘steer’ one hand so it stretches.”}

  • In home oven, max out temperature slightly in advance and pre-bake 2-3 min. Add toppings and bake approx 12 min.

  • {“The other dough balls”=>”get out at room temp 2 hours before using.”}
