Prep Time 5 minutes mins
16 hours hrs 5 minutes mins
Total Time 1 day d 8 hours hrs 35 minutes mins
- 400 grams 00 Flour
- 0.8 grams Instant Active Yeast
- 268 ml Room Temperature Water
- 1/2 tbsp Honey
- 6 ml Olive Oil
Take 30 percent from the total flour to make the Poolish preferment. So, here I take 120 grams of flour and add 120 ml water, yeast and honey to the bowl and mix it well.
Cover it up and keep it in the refrigerator for 16-24 hours. You may not see any bubbles on the surface on the dough but that is okay.
Now take the Poolish preferment out of the fridge, let it cool for 10-20 minutes. Take the rest of the water which is 148 ml and add it to this Poolish Mixture and stir.
Now In another bowl, mix the flour and salt. Add this flour and salt mixture to the poolish and knead the dough till you get a homogenous ball.
Knead the dough on a flat surface till you get a smooth dough. You can now place the dough in the refrigerator for another 16-24 hours for bulk fermentation.
Now, take out the dough and make dough balls. Once you have the dough balls ready, stretch it out and start making pizzas.
Layer the stretched pizza dough with pizza sauce and cheese and cook it in an Oven at 400 degrees fahrenheit for 15 minutes. If you have a pizza oven then it is even better as it can cook the pizza in just 6-7 minutes.
