Brustics Pizza Dough
A perfect recipe for creating a delicious, easy and reliable pizza base.
Yield: 4 large pizzas
Equipment
- Wood Fired Pizza Oven
- Cake mixer with dough attachment
Materials
- 1½ cups luke warm water
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 sachet Edmonds Instant Dry Yeast or 3tsp of Edmonds Surebake Yeast
- 4½ cups 00 flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 3 tbsp herb infused olive oil
Instructions
- Firstly you want to add your luke warm water to a jug
- To your water add yeast and sugar, mix for 3 seconds with a fork
- Add flour and salt into the bowl of your cake mixer and mix to combine
- After 10 minutes your yeast mixture should be bubbly and have a yeasty aroma
- With the mixer on, pour your yeast mixture into the flour
- As soon as your dough has formed add your olive oil
- Mix for 10 minutes or until you can press the dough without it sticking to your fingers
- Place the dough in a bowl with either a damp tea-towel or glad-wrap over the top leave to prove until doubled in size
- What I like to do next is portion the dough into roughly 280 gram balls then allow to rest under a damp tea-towel until doubled in size again, this will make rolling your pizza base a lot easier
- Now your dough balls have rested, you're ready to roll those bases and create some beautiful pizzas. Enjoy!
