Pizza base basic recipe

The basic recipe for a ‘Gourmet pizza’: a small, flavorful pizza in which we incorporate flavors into the dough and top them creatively with special ingredients.

We created ten variations with surprising ingredients. Let yourself be inspired!

Tips:

  • Use flavored oil instead of olive oil.
  • Replace the water with, for example, beet juice, Thai broth, or coconut milk.
  • Use spices, but do sauté them beforehand! It is also important to use a bit more spice than usual, as the base will mellow the flavor somewhat.
  • Bases can be frozen, but roll them out first.

Ingredients

1000gbasic flour 00
620gWater
20gOlive oil

  1. Put the flour and dry yeast in a stand mixer with a dough hook.

  5. Mix for another 6 minutes.
  6. Add the oil at the end and mix for about 1 more minute until the film layer disappears.
