Homemade Pizza
Homemade Pizza with a superb rosemary flavored crispy chewy crust. Resting the dough in the refrigerator allows for its flavor to fully develop.
Ingredients
- 3¼ cups all-purpose flour (490g)
- 1 tsp fresh rosemary
- 1½ tsp salt
- 1½ tsp active dry yeast
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1¼ cup water (about 110°F/43°C) (300ml)
Sauce
- Tomato paste
- Extra virgin olive oil
Toppings
- Pepperoni
- Sweet bell peppers (sliced)
- Artichokes in oil (sliced)
- Black olives (sliced)
- Spinach
- Basil leaves
- Onions (sliced)
- Garlic (minced)
- Mozzarella cheese Shredded
Instructions
- Combine all-purpose flour, rosemary, salt, and yeast in a large bowl. Pour in olive oil and water. Mix with a spatula and lightly knead until dough comes together into a soft, smooth ball. Do not over knead. If dough is too wet, add additional flour.
- Cover and let dough rise for 45 minutes in a warm place. Then refrigerate for 4 hours (or up to 36 hours) so that crust will develop flavor.
- Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C).
- Divide dough in half. Roll out a portion of dough into a 12-inch round. Prick dough all round with a fork and place dough on a pizza pan.
- Spread tomato paste or olive oil on the top. Sprinkle toppings and cheese as desired. Repeat with the other half of dough.
- Bake pizza at the lowest rack for 16 to 18 minutes.
