Homestyle Pizza
Ingredients
7 gr (1 packet) active dry yeast
360 ml (1 ½ cups) warm water (110°F/45°C)
12 gr granulated sugar
420 gr all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
30 ml extra virgin oil
10 grams salt
Instructions:
In a large bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until the yeast is foamy.
Add the flour, olive oil, and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough begins to form.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Form the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly oiled bowl, turning it to coat with oil. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air.
Divide the dough into two equal portions if making two medium-sized pizzas, or leave it whole for one large pizza.
Roll out the dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness.
Top with your favourite sauce, cheese, and toppings, then bake according to your pizza recipe's instructions. Enjoy your homemade pizza!
