Pizza Base

Method

Pizza Base Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

  2. 2

    Make Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Create a well in the center and pour in the activated yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.

  3. 3

    Knead Dough

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

  4. 4

    Let Dough Rise

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

Pizza Assembly

  1. 5

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

  2. 6

    Prepare Pizza Base

    After the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer it to a pizza stone or baking sheet.

  3. 7

    Add Sauce

    Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the pizza base.

  4. 8

    Layer Toppings

    Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese and shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce. Evenly distribute the sliced gyro meat, artichoke hearts, red onion, and black olives on top.

  5. 9

    Season

    Sprinkle dried oregano, salt, and pepper over the toppings.

  6. 10

    Bake Pizza

    Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.

  7. 11

    Cool and Slice

    Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Slice and serve hot.
