Ingredients

1 litre water
2 tablespoons powdered milk
2 kg high-protein wheat flour for pizza
20 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
15 g dried active yeast

Where to find ingredients

Find high-protein wheat flour and dried yeast in the baking aisle of local supermarkets like Choppies or Spar. Powdered milk is widely available in the dairy or breakfast cereal section.

Preparation method

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the water, sugar, salt, olive oil, and powdered milk.
  2. In a separate small container, dissolve the dried yeast in a little warm water, ensuring it is not too hot so as not to deactivate the yeast.
  3. Let the yeast mixture sit and rest for a few minutes.
  4. Add the yeast mixture to the large bowl containing the other ingredients.
  5. Gradually incorporate the wheat flour, mixing thoroughly with your hands or a sturdy spoon.
  6. Keep adding the flour until the dough pulls away from your hands and reaches a uniform consistency.
  7. Knead the dough in the bowl or on a lightly floured surface for about 5 to 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  8. Place the dough into a clean plastic bag, seal it tightly, and let it rest in a warm spot for approximately 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
  9. After the rest period, remove the dough from the bag and divide it into 7 equal portions to form your pizzas.
  10. Shape each portion into a smooth ball and let them rest for another 20 minutes, covered with a kitchen towel.
  11. Roll out each dough ball into a disc and add your desired toppings.
  12. Bake in a preheated oven at your preferred temperature until the crust is golden brown.
