Ingredients
-
DOUGH (start Saturday at 5 PM)
250 grams flour (=8 ounces or ~2 cups)
⅛ teaspoon gram active dry yeast
¾ teaspoon salt
¾ cups good filtered water, warm (105℉ - 110℉)
FRESH SAUCE
4 teaspoons minced garlic
1 14.5-ounce can diced fire-roasted tomatoes
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
Red pepper flakes to taste
TOPPINGS AND ASSEMBLY
¼ cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves (divided)
6 ounces fresh mozzarella, well drained and patted dry
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (divided)
Directions
DOUGH (start Saturday at 5 PM)
1-In a medium bowl, dissolve salt and yeast into the water with your hand. Let it sit for a minute. When it starts to look cloudy, add flour and continue to mix by hand until dough forms a rough ball.
2-Cover with the bowl with plastic and let it rise overnight at room temp until it has doubled in size.
3-Once the dough has doubled its size, scrape it out of the bowl and onto a floured surface. NOTE: In a home kept at 72℉, the dough will take ~18 hours to rise (~11:00 AM Sunday) but a warmer home will take less time so check throughout the morning.
4-Scrape out the dough and divide it in half. Cover one segment while you work on the other.
5-Take the first segment and pull it’s 4 sides (right, left, top-bottom) toward the center, one at a time. Turn the dough seam-side down and mold it to a neat circular mound. Dust with flour if sticky. Wrap the rounded dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate.
6-Repeat with the second segment.
7- At 3:00 PM, take the dough out of the refrigerator and place on a counter to return to bring to room temperature.
FRESH SAUCE
1-Drain tomatoes and discard juice.
2-Process all ingredients in a food processor.
3-Use immediately or store in the refrigerator for a day.
TOPPINGS AND ASSEMBLY
1-Place a rack in the topmost position of the oven. Preheat oven to 500℉.
2- Keep one dough piece covered with plastic wrap, while you work on the first pizza.
3- Brush oil on bottom and sides of a 12” cast-iron skillet.
4- Roll out or stretch out the dough to disc approximately 11 ½ incles to fit your skillet.
5- Place dough into the oiled skillet.
6- Top with ¼-½ cup sauce, ½ of the cheese, and ½ of basil leaves.
7- Turn the burner up to high and heat until skillet is hot and bottom starts to crust
8- Place into the preheated oven and cook for 5-7 minutes until the crust is crispy and cheese is bubbly. You can broil for the last minute or 2 if you like.
9- Remove from oven and pan, sprinkle with parmesan, slice, and serve.
