Dough and Toppings

Method

Preparation and Baking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine bread flour, water, salt, and active dry yeast. Mix until a shaggy dough forms. Cover and let it rest for 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

    After resting, knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and let it rise for 2-3 hours, or until doubled in size.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.

  4. 4

    Shape the Pizza

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and turn it out onto a floured surface. Divide the dough into two equal portions. Shape each portion into a pizza crust by stretching it with your hands or using a rolling pin.

  5. 5

    Add Sauce and Toppings

    Spread 1/2 cup of tomato sauce on each crust, then sprinkle with mozzarella and pecorino cheese. Top with caramelized onions, roasted bell peppers, and salumi.

  6. 6

    Bake the Pizza

    Carefully transfer the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a couple of minutes, then slice and serve hot.
