Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons instant yeast or active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1½ teaspoons kosher or coarse sea salt
- 1 cup lukewarm water
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil divided, plus more for greasing the bowls
- 3 cups (380 grams) ‘00’ pizza flour plus more if needed
To Prepare
- In a large bowl, combine the yeast with the sugar, salt, lukewarm water, and the oil. Add the flour and use your hands to incorporate it all together, knead until it is fully combined, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Turn onto floured countertop and knead for 20 to 30 seconds. If it feels too sticky add a bit more flour, it should be smooth and elastic and not sticky at this point.
- Grease a large mixing bowl with olive oil. Place dough in the bowl, cover with a clean kitchen cloth and let it sit and rise anywhere from 1 to 2 hours, until it has ballooned, risen to a dome, and is very puffy.
- Grease another medium bowl with a bit of olive oil. Divide dough into two pieces. Shape each piece into a ball by gently stretching it around itself in a circular motion. Place each ball in a bowl, cover and let it sit and rise again for another 30 minutes to an hour (or you can cover with plastic wrap and keep in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours).

I visited Italy last month and took a pizza making class. The 00 flour is what makes homemade pizza taste better than restaurant pizza…..

I didn’t realize the difference in texture and taste when using 00 pizza flour! This is a great recipe and I put mine on a pizza steel in my oven. The pizza is delicious! A good dough recipe is a must for a good tasting pizza.

Bake it at 500℉ for 7 to 8 minutes, take it out, add your toppings and return it to the oven for another 7 minutes Diane 🙂

I think there must be a typo in the recipe. I am an experienced bread and dough maker so I am aware of dough consistencies and hydration. There is absolutely no way to get 3 cups of flour mixed with 1 cup of water. I think the correct quantity of flour should be 2 cups. Please confirm. Thanks!

Hi Bea, maybe it is because it is OO flour or because the 3 cups are not packed, but my dough came out beautifully with the recipe as it is 🙂

Very good. Nice and crispy. I only raised it once for about two hours ( until it a little over doubled) using one envelope of active dry yeast — not rapid rise. Will use this recipe again
