Function Used: Ferment Mode & Bake Mode
Yield: 3 (8 to 10 inch) pizzas
Ingredients for the Pizza Dough
-
250 g Refined Flour
-
5 g Sugar
-
2.5 g Instant Dry Yeast
-
15 ml Room Temperature Water
-
135 ml Chilled Water
-
2.5 g Salt
-
15 ml Olive Oil
Method
-
In a small bowl, combine the room temperature water, sugar and yeast. Mix well and rest for 5 minutes, or until slightly frothy.
-
Place the refined flour in a large bowl. Add the activated yeast mixture and gradually pour in the chilled water while mixing until a rough dough forms.
-
Add the salt and olive oil. Knead until smooth, elastic and slightly tacky.
-
Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl and cover with aluminium foil.
-
Preheat the Marvel Oven on Ferment Mode at 40°C.
-
Place the bowl on the Baking Tray. Place the Baking Tray on the middle rack and ferment for 45 minutes, or until doubled in size.
-
Gently punch down the dough and divide into 3 equal portions. Shape into smooth dough balls, place on a lightly oiled tray, cover and proof until doubled.
-
Roll each dough ball into an 8 to 10 inch circle, lifting and rotating as you roll for an even thickness. Transfer to a parchment-lined Baking Tray.
-
Top with your preferred sauce, cheese and toppings.
-
Preheat the Marvel Oven on Bake Mode at 250°C.
-
Place the pizza on a preheated pizza stone or hot Baking Tray. Place it on the middle rack and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the crust is crisp and golden and the cheese is bubbling.
Marvellous Tip – Use chilled water for better gluten development, and roll the dough evenly for a crisp, uniformly baked crust.
