Dough

Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water and sugar. Sprinkle yeast on top and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until foamy.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Once the yeast is activated, pour it into the flour mixture along with olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.

  4. 4

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  5. 5

    Let Dough Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Topping Preparation

  1. 6

    Prepare Black Garlic

    Peel the black garlic cloves and mash them into a paste using a fork.

  2. 7

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat.

Assemble and Bake Pizza

  1. 8

    Shape the Dough

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface to your desired thickness.

  2. 9

    Add Toppings

    Transfer the rolled-out dough to a pizza peel or baking sheet. Spread the black garlic paste evenly over the dough, then sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese. Add fresh basil and season with salt and crushed red pepper flakes.

  3. 10

    Bake Pizza

    Slide the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or place the baking sheet in the oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.

  4. 11

    Cool and Serve

    Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
