Basic Pizza Dough Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Brush a bowl with olive oil to lightly grease.
  • Combine flour, yeast and salt in a separate bowl. Make a well in the centre and add water and oil. Use a wooden spoon, then your hands, to mix until combined and a soft dough forms.
  • Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 3 minutes or until almost smooth.
  • Place the dough in the prepared bowl and turn to coat in the oil.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm, draught-free place for 1 hour to prove or until the dough has doubled in size.
  • Punch down the centre of the dough with your fist. Knead the dough in the bowl for 20-30 seconds or until it is smooth and has returned to its original size.

    I like that you use more water than most recipes. If you put this is a plastic bag and let it sit in the refrigerator overnight, it will gain more complexity and flavor.
