NY Style Pizza Dough

Ingredients

  • 153 grams all-purpose flour
  • 153 grams 00 flour
  • 8 grams salt (1 teaspoon)
  • 2 grams active dry yeast (3/4 teaspoon)
  • 4 grams extra-virgin oil

Steps

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine flours and salt.
  • Stir in 200 grams (a little less than 1 cup) lukewarm tap water.
  • Add the yeast and the olive oil, then pour it into flour mixture.
  • Knead with your hands until well combined, approximately 3 minutes, then let the mixture rest for 15 minutes.
  • Knead rested dough for 3 minutes. Cut into 2 equal pieces and shape each into a ball. Place on a heavily floured surface, cover with dampened cloth, and let rest and rise for 3 to 4 hours at room temperature or for 8 to 24 hours in the refrigerator. (If you refrigerate the dough, remove it 30 to 45 minutes before you begin to shape it for pizza.)
  • To make pizza, place each dough ball on a heavily floured surface and use your fingers to stretch it, then your hands to shape it into rounds or squares.
  • Top with desired ingredient. Then bake at 550 F for ~9 minutes
