Directions
An Italian’s Classic Pizza Dough, Cooking for a couple of decades you are always tweaking. I have several dough recipes, but this is the one that consistently gets the high marks from my guest. A hot pizza stone works best, but a good hot oven is the key., So, a few notes: first, the recipe is a bit vague, which can lead to some confusion. It doesn’t specify the type of flour to use, so used bread flour instead of all purpose flour. I’m not sure if bread flour is denser, but I only needed two cups of flour, and it most definitely wouldn’t have been able to absorb any more. Then, it says to prove the dough, but I am not sure if it is supposed to rise or not? I let it sit a bit longer than it said or it wouldn’t have risen at all. I did divide the dough, but the pizzas were about 9″ each in diameter. They tasted pretty good, but definitely were not authentic Italian from someone who has been to Italy a few times. Finally, the recipe did not specify bake times, so I just guessed. First was probably a bit over-baked, second was fine. Ultimately, they turned out fine, and it’s a decent recipe for a rainy day., I followed every instruction…but I did use a mix of flour and polenta for the surface when I rolled it out. Great recipe!
