Ingredients
  

Dough Ingredients

  • 1000 g Pizzamehl
  • 0.5 g Frische Hefe crushed
  • 20 g Salz
  • 650 ml Wasser divided

Dusting Ingredients

  • as needed Hartweizengrieß for dusting

Instructions
 

Dough Preparation

  • Fill the Pizzamehl into a large mixing bowl. Dissolve the yeast in a few splashes of water and the salt in the remaining water. Add both to the bowl and knead in the stand mixer for about 10 minutes until a smooth dough forms that no longer sticks to the bowl or fingers. Knead by hand for about 20 minutes if preferred.
  • Let the Neapolitan pizza dough rise covered for 4-6 hours at room temperature.
  • Divide the dough into portions of 270 g and shape them into balls. Place in dough boxes and let the dough pieces rise again for 12-24 hours in the refrigerator. Remove about 2 hours before baking to allow them to rise at room temperature.
  • Carefully take one dough piece out of the box and shape it into a round pizza using a bit of flour. Be careful not to destroy too many air bubbles, just stretch and press the dough gently. Leave the edge a bit thicker and ensure the center is not too thin.
  • Top the Neapolitan pizza dough as desired and bake the pizzas in the pizza oven at around 400 °C for 60 – 90 seconds.

Notes

To prevent the dough from sticking to the pizza shovel, use some semolina; it acts like tiny rollers under the pizza dough and ensures it slides off easily.
