1
Prepare the Dough
In a bowl, combine warm water and yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy. In a larger bowl, mix flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture and olive oil. Stir until a dough forms.
2
Knead the Dough
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours or until doubled in size.
3
Preheat the Wood Fire Oven
Prepare your wood fire oven and preheat it to around 700°F (370°C).
4
Shape the Pizza
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 2-4 equal portions. Roll out each portion into a 10-12 inch circle. Add your favorite sauce, cheese, and toppings.
5
Bake the Pizza
Carefully place the pizza in the wood fire oven. Bake for 2-5 minutes, rotating as needed, until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.
6
Serve
Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool slightly, slice, and serve hot.
