HOW TO MAKE THE BEST HOMEMADE PIZZA RECIPE BY TASTY



How To Make The Best Homemade Pizza Recipe by Tasty image

Making homemade pizza dough can sound like a lot of work, but it's so worth the bragging rights. The dough itself requires few ingredients and just a little bit of rising and rest time. While you wait for the dough to be ready, you can get to work prepping your tomato sauce, chopping fresh vegetables, or grating the cheese you'll put on top. Bake for 15 minutes, garnish with basil (or, let's be real, more cheese), and enjoy showing off your way-better-than-takeout creation.

Yield 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 ½ cups warm water
1 teaspoon sugar
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
7 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus more for greasing
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
¼ cup semolina flour
28 oz canned whole tomatoes
1 tablespoon kosher salt
tomato sauce
fresh mozzarella cheese, torn into small pieces
fresh basil leaf
extra virgin olive oil
fresh mozzarella cheese, torn into small pieces
ricotta cheese
fresh basil pesto
dried oregano
tomato sauce
fresh mozzarella cheese, torn into small pieces
spicy pepperoni slice
freshly grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • "Bloom" the yeast by sprinkling the sugar and yeast in the warm water. Let sit for 10 minutes, until bubbles form on the surface.
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the middle and add the olive oil and bloomed yeast mixture. Using a spoon, mix until a shaggy dough begins to form.
  • Once the flour is mostly hydrated, turn the dough out onto a clean work surface and knead for 10-15 minutes. The dough should be soft, smooth, and bouncy. Form the dough into a taut round.
  • Grease a clean, large bowl with olive oil and place the dough inside, turning to coat with the oil. Cover with plastic wrap. Let rise for at least an hour, or up to 24 hours.
  • Punch down the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured work surface. Knead for another minute or so, then cut into 4 equal portions and shape into rounds.
  • Lightly flour the dough, then cover with a kitchen towel and let rest for another 30 minutes to an hour while you prepare the sauce and any other ingredients.
  • Preheat the oven as high as your oven will allow, between 450-500˚F (230-260˚C). Place a pizza stone, heavy baking sheet (turn upside down so the surface is flat), or cast iron skillet in the oven.
  • Meanwhile, make the tomato sauce: Add the salt to the can of tomatoes and puree with an immersion blender, or transfer to a blender or food processor, and puree until smooth.
  • Once the dough has rested, take a portion and start by poking the surface with your fingertips, until bubbles form and do not deflate.
  • Then, stretch and press the dough into a thin round. Make it thinner than you think it should be, as it will slightly shrink and puff up during baking.
  • Sprinkle semolina onto an upside down baking sheet and place the stretched crust onto it. Add the sauce and ingredients of your choice.
  • Slide the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or pan. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the crust and cheese are golden brown.
  • Add any garnish of your preference.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the pizza will be. This means using fresh, flavorful tomatoes, a good quality mozzarella cheese, and a flavorful olive oil.
  • Make your own dough: Homemade dough is always better than store-bought dough. It's easy to make and only requires a few simple ingredients.
  • Don't overcrowd the pizza: When you add too many toppings to your pizza, it will become soggy and difficult to cook evenly.
  • Cook the pizza at a high temperature: The best way to get a crispy crust is to cook the pizza at a high temperature. This will help to create a nice char on the crust and prevent it from becoming soggy.
  • Let the pizza rest before slicing: Once the pizza is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This will help to prevent the toppings from falling off.

Conclusion:

Making homemade pizza is a great way to impress your friends and family. With a little practice, you can make a pizza that is just as good as, if not better than, anything you can get from a pizzeria. So next time you're in the mood for pizza, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed.
