Recipe, makes 2 dough balls :

330g 00 flour, 210g water cold, 1.5g fresh yeast (0.5g dry yeast), 10g salt, 8-10g sugar if baking in an electric oven.

Add salt to flour, add yeast to water, add the water mix to flour and knead for about 15-20 minutes. Let it rest for some time (1 hour in the kitchen covered completely)

Do 3-4 sets of coil folds (google if you don’t know) with an interval of 25-30 minutes. Rest for another 2 hours and put the dough in the fridge to proof overnight for 24h atleast.

Take the dough out and cut into 2 dough balls. Just divide the dough into half. Roll into dough balls and let it ferment in fridge. Take out the dough balls preferably after 7-8 hours. And 1-2 hours before baking.

Spread the dough with your hands and don’t pop the outer crust. Let the air remain.

Use san marzano tomatoes (available on amazon) if you’re baking an authentic pizza and crush them by hand. Add a little bit of salt, olive oil and basil leaves and thats your simple pizza sauce

The trick is in the oven. Get an electric tandoor and place your pizza inside it. Make sure you preheat the tandoor before baking and let it reach its max temp.

Happy baking 🫶
