Pizza

If you have an oven and like pizza (and if you do not – pray tell me why? how could someone not love pizza?) you should be making your own.

I came across this no-knead pizza dough recipe and fell in love. I also hosted a pizza party for few friends and it was a hit.

3 3/4 cup flour

1/4 teaspoon yeast

2 teaspoons salt

1.5 cups water.

Mix with a spoon and then with hand. Cover with a cloth and let it rest and rise for 12+ hours.

To make pizzas be generous while dusting your hands with flour, shape the pizza and bake. I used the back of a cookie sheet sprayed with cooking oil. Topped the dough, bake for 10 minutes at around 190 C. The last couple of minutes change to the grill/broil setting if you want a nice char.

Cheese and marinara – perfection

One tip I learned while experimenting, the lesser you pull the dough the tastier it is. I am sure there is a scientific explanation for the same and I refuse to be read about it 🙂

It is also freezable! Perfection!
