Pizza recipe

Description

Pizza is a culinary preparation that consists of a flat bread, usually circular in shape, made with wheat flour, yeast, water and salt that is traditionally covered with tomato sauce and mozzarella and baked at a high temperature in a wood-fired oven.

Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups warm water, 105-110 degrees F
• 1 envelope rapid rise yeast
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
• 1 ¼ cups white whole wheat flour
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, plus more, as needed

How to make a Pizza

1. Combine water, yeast, honey and salt in a small bowl; let stand until foamy, about 3-5 minutes.
2. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with dough attachment, beat white whole wheat flour, olive oil and water mixture at medium speed until well combined.
3. Lightly oil a large bowl or coat with nonstick spray; place dough in bowl, turning to coat. Cover with a clean dishtowel and let stand at room temperature until dough has doubled in size, 30-45 minutes.
4. Working on a lightly floured surface, divide into 2 equal pieces*; gently knead before using.
