HMT Pizza V2.0
So inspired by the other HMT pizza thread I decided to give it a whirl also. I went with a deep dish style aproach. Not bad for my first pizza. I got caught up watching TV and let it cook a few min too long. Tasted fine, just had that crunch.
ingredients for dough:
1 packet yeast
Bread flower
2 cups water
Seasoning to taste
olive oil
Start by mixing a packet of yeast in half a cup warm water. Let set about 5-10 min.
After 10 min mix yeast mix with another cup and a half water. Then begin to mix in your flour one cup at a time. After two cups you will have something about like pancake batter. Now here is where you should decide if you want additional seasoning. I went with some italian seasoning and parm cheese. It's still nice and liquid and will mix in nice without sinking to the bottom.
Third cup of flour and you have a nice dough, that is still very tacky. Put out a bit of flour on the counter and place your dough there.
Start kneading your dough. Pretty much just use your hands to make it nice and flat then fold over a few times and start again. Need to do it for about 10 min. You will need to continue to add flower as you do this. Mine took another whole cup. You can kind of feel when it get's nice and tight and elasticky. Place in bowl lubed up with some oil or spray.
One hour later:
Two hours later:
So now I am ready to start putting in the pan and topping it. I decided to go with fresh grated mozzarella, goat cheese, pepperoni, roasted red peppers, clove of garlic, purple onion, and mushroom.
Put about half your dough on your pan and start ------ing out with your hand. Make sure it's nice and thin because it will puff up. I used a deep pan and pulled it up about an inch on the sides. About half an inch would be fine, but I was lazy and didn't want to trim excess. Put a little cheese, sauce (not too much), then lay on the toppings and rest of cheese.
Throw the nog in the oven on 425* for about 30 min until GOLDEN brown. Pay attention or it will get a little crisp. I for one like soft pizza not crunchy.
Still have over half the dough left over so might make calzones tomorrow.
