Ingredients
- 630g bread flour, plus more for dusting (about 4 1/2 cups)
- 15g white sugar (about 1 1/2 tablespoons)
- 10g kosher salt (about 1 tablespoon)
- 10g instant yeast, such as SAF Instant Yeast (about 2 teaspoons)
- 32g extra virgin olive oil (about 3 tablespoons)
- 420g lukewarm water (about 1 3/4 cups)
Directions
- Combine half the flour, sugar, salt, and yeast in bowl and stir well by hand or with a hand mixer. Add olive oil and water. Stir or blend until mixture is well combined. Add in remaining half of flour and stir well to make a sticky dough.
- Transfer dough ball to lightly floured surface and knead once or twice by hand until smooth ball is formed. Divide dough into three even parts and place each in a covered quart-sized deli container or in a zipper-lock freezer bag. Place in refrigerator and allow to rise at least 1 day, and up to 5. Remove from refrigerator, shape into balls, and allow to rest at room temperature for at least 2 hours before baking.
- Shape and poke holes with a fork. Bake at 450 degrees on a pizza stone, steel, or rock griddle for 5 minutes, then top the crusts and bake an additional 10-14 minutes until golden brown.
