Enjoying the sights, sounds and smells of first-time parenthood. Progress on the organic vegetable garden and other ramblings of a gaijin in Japan’s least populous prefecture.

Pizza Dough

Written by: adekun on 17 December, 2006 9:51 am - Filed under: baking ?

  • 175 g plain flour
  • 150 ml water
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp easy-blend yeast
  • 1/4 salt

Sift the flour into a large bowl. Mix in the yeast and salt. Make a well in the centre,
pour in premixed oil and warm water. Mix together until you have a soft dough, you may need to add more flour.
Knead for five minutes. The dough should be smooth and elastic. Place in an oiled bowl and roll around to coat the outside.
Cover with a damp cloth and leave in a warm place for an hour and a half to rise.

I tend to use the Nissin brand of flour here in Japan. Having prepared this a few times now, I shall use less water in the future.
The flour doesn’t seem to absorb the liquid and I end up using a lot more.
