Wood Stove Pizza

Cultural Context

Originating from Italy, wood-fired pizza is a beloved culinary tradition that emphasizes the use of high heat and fresh ingredients. The intense heat of the wood stove creates a unique charred flavor and crispy crust that is hard to replicate. In many Italian regions, pizza is a communal dish, often enjoyed with family and friends during gatherings. Today, wood-fired pizza has gained popularity worldwide, with many pizzerias adopting this traditional method to create authentic flavors.

1

Sift 1 kg of flour and 1 tablespoon of salt into a large bowl.

2

Prepare a yeast mixture by combining 600 ml of lukewarm water, 3 teaspoons of instant yeast, and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Let it sit for about 10 minutes.

3

Make a well in the flour mixture and add 4 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil.

4

Slowly incorporate the yeast mixture into the flour using your hands, mixing gently until combined.

5

Knead the dough for about 5-10 minutes until it is firm but not over-kneaded. It should spring back when pressed with a finger.

6

If the dough is too dry, add a little more warm water as needed, but avoid making it too sloppy.

7

Once kneaded, let the dough rest for a few hours to rise before using it for pizza.
