Pizza is a food consisting of baked dough, and a mixture of vegetables or cold cuts. There are two main types of pizza, Italian and Canadian. Italian pizza has a thin dough and usually a limited number of ingredients per pizza (more specifically it depends on the imagination of the cook) and is individual. Canadian has a thicker dough and usually has a lot of ingredients on it. Canadian is usually available in three sizes: individual, family (or medium) and giant.
Ingredients
- 500 gr. all-purpose flour
- 400 ml of slightly lukewarm water (be careful not to overheat)
- 1 sachets of dry yeast (=8 gr.)
- 1 pinch of salt
- 2-3 tablespoons olive oil
Method
- In a large bowl add all the solid ingredients and mix well.
- Make a hole in the middle, pour all the water, the olive oil and knead until the mixture is not sticking to your hands.
- Use some more flour if needed (if it still sticks to your hands).
- Cover it with a towel and leave it in a warm place for 1 hour to rest.
- Into a baking pan place baking paper (grease it a little bit if you want) and then add the dough and cover with your hands all the surface of the pan.
- Bake the dough for about 10′ to a preheated oven at 180oC.
- Then add your ingredients you want and bake for more time (usually for 10 minutes – it depends on the ingredients)
