Recipe Introduction


This is a professional baking recipe. You will find out that restaurants and bakeries use scales to measure out almost everything. It is more accurate and you get a more consistent serving size. So on most of the recipes for baking the main ingredient you have to go on is the flour. You do all of your calculations off of it. This way if the flour has absorbed any moisture, you will use less water.


List of Ingredients




Tools

Scale
Bowl
Stirring spoon


Ingredients

100% Flour
1.75% Salt
2.0% Sugar
3.0% Olive oil
1.5% Compressed yeast
55 - 60% Water 70 degrees

Recipe



Serves: As much as you make
Time required: Prepare: 20 minutes Cook: 18 minutes
Oven temperature: 375 degrees
Difficulty: Easy


Directions

1. Preheat dishwasher by running it for 5 minutes, and making sure you shut it off.

2. Heat water, and add yeast, some water, and a little of the sugar.

3. Put flour, salt, and sugar in bowl and mix thoroughly.

4. Add olive oil and proofed yeast. Stir it up.

5. Add 2/3 of the water. Stir. Add the rest of the water, till you have a dough that is still just sticky.

6. Knead dough till it starts to have a sheen.

7. Put rounded dough in the bowl that is now clean. Add a little oil, and rub it all over dough. This will help the dough not crust over when it rises. Put a towel over the bowl.

8. Put bowl in dishwasher that is steamy and hot. Let dough double in size, about 30 to 45 minutes.

9. Punch down, and shape into the shape you want. Let rise again, and top with the ingredients you want. Bake pizza for about 18 minutes.
