HOMEMADE PIZZA: How to Make Pizza Dough From Scratch Using Active Dry or Fast Acting Yeast
Recipe Information
Homemade Pizza
Cultural Context
Pizza originated in Naples, Italy, and has become a global favorite. Traditionally made with simple ingredients, it reflects the Italian culinary philosophy of using fresh, high-quality components. Each region in Italy has its own variations, and it is often enjoyed as a communal dish, perfect for gatherings and celebrations.
mozzarella cheese
🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella
💰Cheaper: processed cheese
Part-skim mozzarella has fewer calories, while processed cheese is often cheaper.
pizza dough
🥗Healthier: whole wheat pizza dough
💰Cheaper: store-bought pizza dough
Whole wheat dough is more nutritious, while store-bought is budget-friendly.
Combine 2 and 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast with 1 cup of warm water (between 100 and 110 degrees) and 1 teaspoon honey in a small bowl.
Mix the yeast, water, and honey until dissolved and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes until frothy.
If using fast acting yeast, skip the proofing and combine all ingredients, using warmer water as per packet instructions.
Add 3 cups of bread flour to the bowl of a stand mixer.
Add 3 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 teaspoon of salt to the yeast mixture.
Mix slightly before creating a well in the center of the flour and pouring in the liquid mixture.
Attach the dough hook and mix until it forms a tacky dough.
Lightly flour a clean surface and knead the dough by hand for 1 to 2 minutes until smooth.
Grease a bowl with olive oil, place the dough in it, cover, and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size (about 1 hour).
Once risen, lightly flour the surface and drop the dough onto it.
Press the dough down with fingers, then lift and stretch it to form a round, flat crust, thicker along the edges.
Prepare toppings: grate mozzarella cheese, and prepare red sauce and homemade pesto with a little heavy cream.
Assemble the pizza: spread red sauce on one half and pesto on the other half.
Add toppings: pepperoni, Italian sausage, and Hatch Green Chili on the red sauce side; roasted chicken and red onion on the pesto side.
Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the toppings.
Preheat the oven to 500 degrees and bake for 10 to 12 minutes until golden brown.
Cut the pizza along the line separating the two different kinds and serve.
