Margherita Toppings
Directions
Dough
Bloom yeast in warm water (around 110-120F) for 10 minutes. Add in flour and salt, mix lightly (speed 2 on mixer).
Pour in remaining cold water, mix for 10 minutes. A smooth dough ball should form, cleaning the sides of the bowl.
Add in olive oil and mix just until incorporated. Cover and proof at room temperature for 1-2 hours
Split and ball into 250g portions (it makes 6) and space out either in a large container, or on a sheet pan, or individual containers, covering with a lid or plastic wrap.
Move to fridge, and proof for 72 hours. Remove from fridge, keep covered, let proof for 2-3 hours before stretching.
Margherita
Dust board with flour and work one dough ball into a large circle. Top with sauce, shredded mozzarella, and torn fresh mozzarella. Bake in a preheated pizza oven (or regular oven) until golden brown and bubbling around the edge.
Cool slightly before topping with fresh basil, grated Parmesan, and a drizzle of Spicy Pizza Oil.
