Ingredients

One batch

  • 720 g bread flour
  • 480 g lukewarm water
  • 9 g instant yeast
  • 18 g fine sea salt
  • 19 g olive oil, for coating
  • Semolina or rice flour, for dusting

Let’s make it

  1. Mix instant yeast into the flour. Add water and salt, then knead by hand for 8–10 minutes.

  2. Coat a bowl with some oil, add the dough and oil its surface. Cover and keep warm for 20–30 minutes, until doubled.

  3. Divide into five balls. Brush with the remaining oil, cover and let rise for another 15–20 minutes, until doubled.

  4. Hand-stretch each ball, top and bake.

Timing depends on warmth and how quickly the dough rises. This version uses instant yeast; see Ooni for other yeast options.
