Pizza Dough

Method

Pizza Assembly and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    While the dough is rising, preheat your stone-fired pizza oven to around 700°F (370°C).

  4. 4

    Shape the Pizza

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 2-4 portions (depending on desired pizza size). Roll out each portion on a floured surface to your desired thickness.

  5. 5

    Add Toppings

    Add your favorite pizza sauce, cheese, and toppings to the shaped dough.

  6. 6

    Bake the Pizza

    Carefully transfer the pizza to the preheated stone and bake for about 5-8 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Remove from the oven, let it cool for a minute, slice, and enjoy your stone-fired pizza!
