I do not remember the original source anymore, but I adapt it depending on what kind of pizza I want to make. This recipe only takes a few minutes of work, because most of the magic happens during the resting time. So if you also want to become a pizza maker at home, this recipe is for you.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Ingredients for the pizza dough<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8211; 500 g flour<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8211; 1\/4 liter lukewarm water<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8211; 1 packet baker\u2019s yeast<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8211; 1 teaspoon salt (you can add more if you like salty food)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8211; 1 teaspoon sugar<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8211; Olive oil<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/floridaandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/781.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"78\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2683\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/floridaandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/781.jpg\" width=\"700\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Method<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Pour the flour into a large bowl and make a well in the center. In another container, mix the baker\u2019s yeast with the teaspoon of salt and sugar. Add 1\/4 liter of lukewarm water to the mixture and let it rest for 15 minutes, covered with foil or plastic wrap. Once a thick brownish foam appears on top, the mixture is ready and can be poured into the well in the flour.<\/p>\n<p>Start mixing with a wooden spoon and then continue by hand. Once the dough no longer sticks, knead it on a floured work surface for a few minutes. Then pour in a little olive oil, knead again for a few more minutes, and shape the dough into a ball. You can also flavor the dough with herbs if you want a variation.<\/p>\n<p>Let the dough rest for at least 1 hour under a damp kitchen towel in a warm place. Once the dough has rested, knead it again before rolling it out on a floured surface. You can make one large square pizza, two pizzas, or several small ones \u2014 simply divide the dough as needed.<\/p>\n<p>Place the rolled-out dough on a baking tray either brushed with olive oil or lined with parchment paper. Add your toppings to the pizza dough: tomato sauce, ham, mushrooms, olives, cheese, artichoke hearts, tuna, salmon, and so on. Bake in a preheated oven at 220\u00b0C \/ 425\u00b0F for about 10 minutes. And that is it \u2014 your pizza is ready to enjoy.<\/p>\n<p>Today, ours was topped with tomato sauce, herbs de Provence, cheese, ham, and mushrooms.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Enjoy your meal!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/floridaandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/FullSizeRender2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"FullSizeRender\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2684\" height=\"525\" src=\"https:\/\/floridaandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/FullSizeRender2-1024x768.jpg\" width=\"700\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This homemade pizza dough recipe is simple, reliable, and perfect for thick American-style pizzas or your favorite homemade toppings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":10833,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[476],"tags":[4343,4342],"class_list":["post-14448","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-pizza","tag-pizza-dough"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
