==========================================
INGREDIENTS:
Pizza Dough
1 kg / 35.2 oz pizza flour (minimum 11 g protein)
700 ml / 2.9 cups cold tap water
7 g / 0.25 oz dry yeast (1 sachet)
5 tsp salt
Bowl of fine semolina (for stretching the pizza)
Pizza Sauce and Toppings
Crushed peeled tomatoes (with a pinch of salt)
A fresh bunch of basil
Pecorino Romano (grated)
Salami (Optional)
Sautéed mushrooms (optional)
Guanciale (optional)
Mozzarella cheese (sliced)
METHOD:
Forming Pizza Dough Balls
1) Pour the water into the stand mixer bowl, then add 2 handfuls of flour along with the 5 teaspoons of salt and yeast. Mix for about 20 seconds to activate the yeast.
2) Add half of the remaining flour and continue mixing. Then add the rest little by little until well combined, aiming for the dough to reach a temperature of arpprox 25°C (77°F).
3) Before forming the dough balls, dust a pizza tray (or airtight containers) lightly with fine semolina so the dough doesn’t stick.
4) Transfer the dough onto a clean work surface. Slap it down, then knead back and forth with the palm of your hand until smooth. Use a scraper to divide the dough into portions. Weigh each piece on a scale—aim for 270 g (9.5 oz) for 6 balls, or 250 g (8.8 oz) for 7 balls.
5)To shape the dough ball, start by holding a cut portion in one hand with three fingers curled under the bottom, keeping your thumb and index finger free. Use this hand to guide while the other hand folds the dough in, turning it until it forms a ball. Rub your hands gently along the sides to close the bottom, then tuck it in at the end. Alternatively, place the portion on your bench and roll it in a circular motion until it becomes round. Tuck in the bottom slightly, then place the dough ball onto your tray or into containers, leaving enough space between each one.
6) Cover and let the dough balls rest at room temperature for at least 3 hours. Do not refrigerate during this stage.
