Pizza Dough Recipe

Do you love pizza? – Why not give it a go yourself!

In search of the perfect homemade pizza I researched what many of the great masters have said on the topic and, through trial and error, have come up with the below recipe. Whilst not essential, best results will be achieved with a pizza stone (porous or glazed) or a pizza steel as these provide more direct heat to the bottom of your dough. Honourable mentions must go to Gennaro Contaldo and Alex French Guy Cooking (check out their videos on YouTube for more amazing ideas). Let me know how you get on and I hope that you have as much luck with this recipe as I have. Buon appetito!
