Delicious homemade pizza with a perfect crust and your favorite toppings.
Pizza al taglio
A classic Italian pizza recipe that you can easily make at home. Choose between a long fermentation process for a more complex flavor or a same-day process for instant gratification.
Ingredients
- 200g starter (100% hydration)
- 464g water
- 600g flour
- 5.5g instant yeast (for long fermentation)
- 8.5g instant yeast (for same day)
- 21g salt
- 50g water
Directions
- Combine the starter, water, and flour in a large bowl. Mix until no dry flour remains. Let rest for 30 minutes.
- Dissolve the yeast in water, then add to the dough along with the salt. Mix until well combined.
- Knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- Let the dough rise until it has doubled in size. This will take longer if you’re using the smaller amount of yeast for long fermentation.
- Preheat your oven to its highest setting.
- Divide the dough into two equal parts and shape each into a 11x15” pizza.
- Add your favorite toppings and bake until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
- The fermentation time can greatly affect the flavor of your pizza. For a more complex, sourdough-like flavor, use the smaller amount of yeast and let the dough rise for a longer period of time. For a quicker pizza with a milder flavor, use the larger amount of yeast and let the dough rise until it has just doubled in size.
