Perfect Homemade Pizza Dough Recipe 🍕✨

Ingredients (for 3 medium pizzas):

💧 400 ml warm water
🍚 1.5 tsp sugar
🧂 1.5 tsp salt
🍞 9 g fresh yeast (or 3 g dry yeast)
🌾 800 g flour (may vary slightly)
🫒 20 g olive oil

Preparation:

🔥 Activate the yeast properly:
Mix warm water with sugar and yeast, let it sit for 5 minutes. Then add salt. This sequence helps the yeast “wake up” and allows the dough to rise.

🤲 Keep the dough slightly sticky:
Avoid adding too much flour, even if the dough sticks a little. This keeps the base soft and airy.

⏳ In a hurry?
Increase the yeast amount (e.g., 15 g fresh or 5 g dry yeast) to speed up rising.

🍞 Dough preparation:
After the first rise, divide the dough into 3 parts and let it “rest” for another 20 minutes—this makes it easier to roll out.

🎯 For a thin crust:
Stretch the dough by hand to maintain its structure. Sprinkle semolina or cornmeal under the dough for added texture.

🔥 Perfect baking:
Spread sauce on the base before baking in a preheated oven (250°C/482°F). Bake for 10 minutes, then add cheese and finish baking. For extra flavor, drizzle with olive oil before serving.
