Instructions
MAKING THE PIZZA DOUGH
- Proof the yeast: Place the warm water in a bowl, sprinkle the yeast over the warm water and let it sit for 5 minutes. The yeast should begin to foam or bloom, indicating that the yeast is still active and alive.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the middle and add the oil and bloomed yeast mixture. Using a spoon, mix until a shaggy dough begins to form.
- When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead until smooth and bouncy, about 8 minutes. If it’s too wet, sprinkle in a little more flour.
- Spread a thin layer of oil over the inside of a large bowl. Place the pizza dough in the bowl. A quick fermentation (1 1/2 hours in a warm place) will allow the dough to rise sufficiently to work with. Cover the dough with plastic wrap. For a quick rise, place the dough in a warm place (75°F to 85°F) for 1 1/2 hours until doubled in volume.
- Punch down the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured work surface. Knead for another minute or so. Lightly flour the dough, then cover with a kitchen towel and let rest for another 30 minutes to an hour while you prepare the sauce and any other ingredients.
- Preheat the oven as high as your oven will allow, between 450-500˚F (230-260˚C) for at least 30 minutes, preferably an hour.
- Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Saute onion until tender. Season with sugar, salt, black pepper, broccoli. Add soy sauce and hot sauce. Simmer 15 to 20 minutes.
- Once the dough has rested, take a portion and start by poking the surface with your fingertips, until bubbles form and do not deflate.
- Then, stretch and press the dough into a thin round. Make it thinner than you think it should be, as it will slightly shrink and puff up during baking. Pinch the edges if you want to form a lip.
- When ready, spread sauce over pizza.
- Top with cheese and toppings.
- Slide the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or pan. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the crust and cheese are golden brown.
- Add any garnish of your preference.
- Slice and serve!
- Enjoy!
Notes
- For cheese lover, If you want, toward the end of the cooking time you can sprinkle on a little more cheese.
- Do add some oil on top of the pizza pan before putting your pizza in the oven. This is to prevent the pizza from sticking!
- leave the dough to rest overnight because it really gets that classic restaurant pizza feel
