Homemade Pizza Dough

I think I know my way around a pizza! I have officially found the one and only Homemade Pizza Dough recipe that I’ll carry with me forever!
Prep Time25 minutes
Rise Time3 hours
Total Time3 hours 25 minutes
Course: Dinner
Cuisine: Italian
Servings: 16 people
Author: Gaby Dalkin

Ingredients

  • 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon 00 flour 153 grams
  • 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon and 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour 153 grams
  • 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • ¾ teaspoon active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine flours and salt.
  • In a small mixing bowl, stir together about 1 cup (200 grams) lukewarm tap water, the yeast and the olive oil. Pour it into flour mixture. Knead with your hands until just combined, approximately 2-3 minutes, then let the mixture rest for 15 minutes.
  • Knead the rested dough for 3 minutes until smooth. Cut the dough into 2 equal pieces and shape each into a ball. Place on a heavily floured surface, cover with dampened clean kitchen towel, and let rest and rise for 3 to 4 hours at room temperature. Alternatively, if you're making the dough a day before use, you can let it rest and rise for 8 to 24 hours in the refrigerator.
  • To make pizza, make sure the dough is at room temperature and place each dough ball on a heavily floured surface and use your fingers to stretch it, then your hands to shape it into rounds or squares. Top and bake.

Notes

This makes enough for 2 full-size pizzas.
