Instructions

Dough

Step 1

In a bowl add the flours and mix until combined.

Step 2

Add half of the water and the yeast and mix until combined.

Step 3

Add the remainder of the water in small parts until it's all absorbed.

Step 4

Add the olive oil and salt. Mix until the dough is smooth.

Step 5

Let the dough rest at room temperature for 10 minutes. After this time, mix again to tighten the gluten.

Step 6

Cover it and let it bulk ferment for 12 hours or overnight in the refrigerator (or leave it at room temperature for 2-3 hours).

Step 7

Form the dough balls (around 180 grams/6.3 Oz) each and let it proof for 4-6 hours.


Classic Margherita

Step 1

Roll out the dough until its super thin. Add the tomato sauce across the base, leaving a 1.5cm/0.5 inch gap from the edge.

Step 2

Add the fresh basil and the grated Parmigiano, then top with the Fior de Latte.

Step 3

Place your pizza into the oven at around 400°C/752°F. Cook until golden and crisp.

Step 4

Finish with fresh basil leaves and olive oil. Serve and enjoy!


Zucchini e Cotto

Step 1

Peel your zucchini into thin slices. Marinade with olive oil, sea salt, black pepper and fresh mint leaves.

Step 2

Stretch out your dough ball, so that its long and thin, in the style of a focaccia. Drizzle over some olive oil and poke some holes in the base to allow airflow through the dough.

Step 3

Add the zucchini to the base and then bake in the your Gozney pizza oven at 350°c/750°F. Once cripsy and cooked, remove.

Step 4

Slice the pizza and add the ham and tear over the buratta.

Step 5

Finish with mint leaves, salt, pepper and drizzle over olive oil. Serve and enjoy!
