- 1 1⁄3 cups room temp water
- 1 teaspoon yeast
- 1 1⁄2 - 1 3⁄4 cups bread flour
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon yeast
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons kosher salt
directions
- To make poolish:Mix 1 1/2 C flour and 1 teaspoons yeast together in bowl, add 1 1/3 C water, mix well, cover with plastic and let ferment at room temp for 2 to 5 hours.
- For the dough: In a large kitchenaid mixing bowl combine all the poolish and add to it: 1 tablespoons Honey, 1 tsp yeast, and 1 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt and blend well.
- Put dough hook on mixer and add remaining flour and mix well at low speed. Gradually add flour a little at a time with mixer running at speed 2 or so. What you are looking for is, for your dough to clear the sides of the
- bowl, but not the bottom. When this happens, no more flour.
- Knead at medium speed for about 5 minutes. Dough should freely drop off of dough hook.
- Put dough into an oiled bowl, cover with plastic and let rise 1 1/2 hours.
- at room temperature.
- Turn dough out onto lightly oiled surface, divide into 2 balls.
- Transfer balls to lightly floured surface, dust lightly with flour,.
- cover with plastic and let rise 1 1/2 hours.
- Make skins from balls. This dough makes 2 13 - 14 inch pies.
- Do not use a rolling pin when forming your skins it will stretch the dough.
- far too much. I use a slap and then stretch over the backs of my hands.
- Bake on a pizza stone thats been preheated for 15+minutes at 550F for 8-12 minutes. I also like to mist the edge of the dough with Extra Virgin Olive Oil before baking.
