Ingredients

  • 1000g (7 ¾ cups) 00 (or AP) flour

Directions

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, and yeast.
  • Stir by hand until evenly distributed.

  • Mix with a dough hook on speed 2 (low-medium) for about 10 minutes, or until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
  • Same-Day Use: Cover the dough and let it proof at room temperature (70-75°F / 21-24°C) for 4-6 hours, or until doubled in size.
    Overnight Use: Cover the dough and refrigerate for 12-24 hours. Remove from the fridge 2 hours before baking to let it come to room temperature.

  • Let the dough balls rise at room temperature for 30 minutes before using.
  • Preheat your oven to the highest possible temperature (500°F/260°C or higher) with a pizza stone or steel inside.

  • and bake for 6-8 minutes (or until golden brown and bubbly).
