No Knead Pizza Dough

What is easier than a no-knead pizza crust? This recipe (like many I have) are a combination of several recipes, tweaked amongst years of experimentation on my part. This ane is a keeper!!

We dearest a pizza crust that stays crispy underneath the filling, even thus the edges are lite together with airy amongst large air pockets within the dough. The hardest role of this recipe (that's a joke) is to recollect to mix the dough the nighttime earlier (it needs to sit down at room temperature for 24 hours). No involve to utilization a mixer together with dough hook, but a bowl together with spoon; it is super-easy.

three cups all operate flour

1 tablespoon yeast

1½ teaspoons salt

1 teaspoon olive oil

¼ teaspoon dark pepper (optional)

1 tablespoon saccharide

1½ cups warm water

In a large bowl, mix everything, using a wooden spoon.  The dough volition live really moisture together with expect to a greater extent than similar a batter than a dough. Don't live tempted to add together to a greater extent than flour at this stage!!

Cover the bowl amongst plastic twine together with permit it sit down at room temperature for 24 hours. After 24 hours, the dough/batter volition live nearly triple inwards size, thus utilization a large bowl, run across all those bubbles?

After 24 hours, stir the dough. It's going to live pretty sticky, but don't freak out close it.

Heavily flour your counter overstep together with pour/scoop the dough out onto the flour.  Generously sprinkle flour over the overstep of the dough too.  Fold the dough dorsum onto itself a few times. This is a fiddling messy/sticky, thus maintain flouring your hands. After you've coated the dough amongst flour together with folded it over a few times, cutting it inwards one-half (makes two medium pizza's).

Preheat your oven (with pizza rock on oculus rack) to 450 degrees.
Put each slice of dough on its own piece of parchment newspaper together with using floured hands, gently pat it into a circle, leaving the edges thicker together with the oculus equally sparse equally yous can. Add toppings together with brush the edges of the crust amongst a fiddling H2O (not much).
The dough is going to rest on the parchment newspaper when yous set it onto the hot pizza stone. To exercise this, I transfer the newspaper together with dough past times lifting it amongst a rim-less cookie sheet, together with and thus I slide the whole thing off of the cookie canvass together with correct onto the stone. Bake it for 8 minutes.

After 8 minutes, clit the parchment newspaper out of the oven. Turn the bake cycle off together with plough on the broiler cycle for close 1 to 2 minutes (watch closely). The hot pizza rock volition proceed to bake the underside of the crust, but the broiler volition chocolate-brown the toppings nicely.

We dearest those lite airy pockets within the crust!!
