Ingredients

For the base:

  • 500g strong bread flour
  • 300ml water (40 degrees)
  • 10gr salt
  • 10gr sugar
  • 10gr extra virgin olive oil
  • 5gr fresh brewer's yeast

  • dried oregano
  • 1 tablespoon basil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 400gr mozzarella fiordilatte

DIRECTIONS

  • Prepare in a glass water and yeast and stir until it is dissolved
  • put the flour into a large bowl
  • add salt, sugar, oil and mix with a fork
  • add the glass of water and yeast
  • add the water a little at a time and mix with your hands
  • when the water has run out, continue kneading for 20 minutes with your hands

When the dough is ready

  • prepare the oven at maximum temperature
  • divide the dough and roll it out very thin until placing it in the trays (help with a rolling pin if necessary)
  • in a bowl put tomato sauce, oregano, salt and extra virgin olive oil
  • cut the mozzarella into very small dice
  • put tomato on the pizza
  • put mozzarella on the pizza
  • insert the tray in the oven (circa 10 minutes): this last point depends on your oven. Check that the pizza does not burn, the mozzarella melts and the underside of the pizza takes on color

And now it's time to eat a super PIZZA
