Let’s get started!
– 2 tsp Instant yeast – 450 g Flour – 3/4 tsp Kosher salt – 1 1/3 cups Warm water – 1/2 tbsp Olive oil – Cornmeal
1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine all ingredients except cornmeal. Reserve a small amount of water. 2. Use the dough hook to stir until a loose dough forms. 3. If needed, add the remaining water or a pinch of flour to adjust consistency.
4. Attach the dough hook and mix on low, gradually increasing to medium until a ball forms. 5. Knead for 8 minutes at medium-high speed. 6. Divide the dough in half, shape into boules with floured hands, and place on a floured surface.
7. Dab with olive oil, cover with a damp towel, and let rise for 45 minutes to 1 hour. 8. Gently shape the risen dough into a circle. Use your knuckles to stretch it, letting gravity assist.
9. Sprinkle cornmeal on a pizza peel or baking sheet, place the stretched dough on top, add toppings, and bake at 500°F for 5-7 minutes until browned.
