Instructions
Step 1
Start by sifting the flour into a mixing bowl. Add the sugar, instant dry yeast, salt, warm water, and olive oil. Mix all the ingredients together until a cohesive dough forms.
The dough will be sticky and slightly wet. If it feels too wet, you may add an additional 30 grams (1 ounce) of flour to achieve the right consistency. To avoid sticking, coat your hands with a bit of olive oil while handling the dough.
Step 2
This recipe yields enough dough for one large or two small pizzas. Lightly oil your work surface and start to knead the dough. Stretch it a bit, then fold the edges towards the center as if you were making bread. Finally, shape the dough into a ball.
Transfer the dough ball to a large, oiled container. Cover it with a lid and place it in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours, or up to 6-7 hours for even better flavor. If making two pizzas, you can divide the dough into two balls and place them in the container.
Step 3
Thirty minutes before you are ready to bake, take the dough out of the fridge. Place it on a parchment-lined surface that has been lightly dusted with semolina flour. Cover it with plastic wrap and let it rest for 20 minutes.
Rather than rolling it out with a pin, use your hands to gently stretch the dough from the center while rotating it to form a pizza base, leaving a slight edge for the crust.
Step 4
Now it’s time to top your pizza! Spread a layer of sieved tomatoes, generously sprinkle with cheese mix, and add your favorite toppings.
Preheat your oven to 250 degrees Celsius (480 degrees Fahrenheit) and bake the pizza for 7 minutes until golden brown and bubbling.
Servings
Equipment
Choose a large mixing bowl for combining your ingredients. A glass or stainless steel bowl is ideal as it’s easy to clean and won't react with your dough.

Variations
Faq
- What is the best way to store leftover dough?
Store your dough in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. You can also freeze it for longer storage—just wrap it well!
- Why is my dough too sticky?
If your dough is too sticky, gradually add a bit more flour until you reach the desired consistency. Just be careful not to add too much, as it may affect the texture.
- How can I make my crust crispier?
To achieve a crispier crust, preheat your baking sheet or pizza stone before placing the dough on it. Also, bake your pizza at a high temperature!
- Can I use instant yeast instead of dried yeast?
Absolutely! Instant yeast can be used in the same amount and does not require proofing before adding to the ingredients.
- What can I use as a substitute for olive oil?
You can use any neutral oil, like vegetable or canola oil. For a twist, try using garlic-infused oil for that extra flavor!
- How long should I let the dough rise?
Let the dough rise for at least 3-4 hours in a warm spot. If you have more time, letting it rise overnight in the fridge can enhance its flavor significantly!
