I have been making pizza with this recipe for months I let the dough rest for a least 24 hours with excellent results , thank you for making this very helpful video .

[@viviwhite1203]

I brush my dough with olive oil before I put the tomato sauce so it doesn’t get soggy. It works great and it add a lovely flavor.

[@SpencerToddBrown]

Great pro tip!!!

[@catche85]

This is an excellent same-day sourdough recipe. You really can get it done in 3.5 hours and have an excellent base. For my Roccbox, I should have split the dough into 4, as it stretched so easily and beautifully that the pizza was too big for my oven! I have tried a few different sourdough and yeasted pizza recipes, and this is my favourite so far. It baked up beautifully, didn't bake too fast, got excellent leopard spots and bubbles and was light and delicious. This will be my go to recipe from now on.

[@teaacustardcream2868]

Just finished making the pizza today. OMG!!! It was amazing!!! Got the leopard spots too (home oven) better than a pizza restaurant, thank you for the wonderful receipe

[@judithlehman6533]

Thanks for adding all the little extra explanations about the ingredients and why they react the way they do. Interesting and educational!

[@SimpleSourdough]

Thank you Judith! 😊🙏

[@Thefarmyard7633]

Been watching you for a few months now and your methods have heightened my bread making capabilities but you really did it with this video!!!! I’m a pizza fanatic and I have been using Peter Reinhart’s formula for pizza but this is light years ahead of that one. I like the idea of a dry sauce as to not have a soggy crust. My favorite topping is sausage!

[@Mo-bn2gy]

I’ve made this twice and it was outstanding both times. Thank you for sharing!

[@SimpleSourdough]

Thank you :)

[@CharlieSpoons]

peter - (love your channel BTW) little confused you said prove the dough for 3hrs (can be used to make pizza) or pit in the fridge for 12 hrs, take out let it get some temp i.e. reach room temp then use it. BUT you waited 3 days so was the 3 days in the fridge after 3 hrs proving OR 3 days proving at room temp. ? sorry if this is obvious..

[@Alaska129]

I scaled the recipe to make three pies. Made the dough on a Friday and let it cold ferment in the fridge for about 7 days. The dough was like a cloud or a pillow ( Fabulous ) Thank you for sharing this it will be my goto for some time . Best regards from Alaska

[@troythegardener]

Looks great! I've been looking for an easy sourdough recipe to cook in my new pizza oven and this one is perfect

Great video, I’m going to get set my levain and try your recipe……thank you🙏🏻

[@SimpleSourdough]

Thank you Donna let me know how it goes :-)

[@Lukas-wk5wq]

At minute 2:55 you say, if you do an autolyse, you might end up mixing the dough too much, in the end. But how is mixing more than necessary bad? Does the dough get to warm an the fermentation goes too quickly? Why shouldn't it? Great you make these in depth explanations.

[@mohamedmahfouz1404]

The best recipe i ever tried, thank you

[@SimpleSourdough]

Thank you so much!

[@KASA0828]

made them! will bake soon! cannot wait to taste! TY!

[@Huisache520]

Thanks for this. I got 2 right-sized pizzas for my oven (Breville Pizzaiolo). Most importantly was your technique for forming the pizza pie dough was helpful. Using lots of flour with some semolina, I stretched the dough ball gently, minimal pressing and it easily spread out. Like you mentioned, care is needed to avoid creating any holes in the dough. I was able to transfer both my pies (tomato sauce, mozzarella, chicken, bacon) to my low clearance oven. I did not pick up on your cooking temp process however so next time I will just increase mine up to 750 degrees Fahrenheit. Maybe I will get a more puffy crust. I have a stone while you used a steel so am not familiar. Anyway, thanks again and you have given me encouragement in my quest to be proficient sourdough pizza cook.

[@SimpleSourdough]

Thanks for the feedback! :)

[@laurad2136]

I was like "oh dear.." in some of the passages i.e. parmigiano on top of the pizza (you can put some once cooked) 😄😄😄 Nice, I also let it rest long and will try to work the dough less next time.. A nice one is mascarpone and pancetta (pancetta goes on top once pizza is cooked) 😉

[@matilderodriguez1603]

I really like ur recipe and how it’s look 👀 I’m going to give a try

[@HannielPanchoo]

Hi great video, is it possible to use sourdough discard or less active starter and if so, what adjustments to the ingredients/recipe, if any, are needed? I really enjoy your videos!!

[@SimpleSourdough]

If you use discard the proofing time is shorter as the sourdough will be more hungry.

[@suzanmhich7645]

Great tutorial ❤thank you,I will definitely try

[@SimpleSourdough]

Thank you!

[@teslarex]

Great tip using broiler close to steel on bottom! Your pizza looks delicious!

[@gnawbabygnaw]

Doesn’t look like it matters but out of habit I try to keep the salt away from the Sourdough starter by mixing the salt with the flour before mixing the wet ingredients and all together. Thank you 🤙🤙

[@SimpleSourdough]

Thanks!

[@JimSlaughterOC]

Thank you so much for all of your great videos. I really enjoy watching them. I've made the Danish rye bread, in fact I have a loaf of it baking as I write this! It's really good. As for pizza, I love to make pizza so I will be very interested to try out some of your ideas.

[@SimpleSourdough]

Thank you!

[@greglee1585]

Thanks for this video! I am excited to try it when I get back home. I went to a pizza restaurant in Bath UK last night and there Sough dough, that was, Thin, light & crispy! I loved it! Hopefully this recipe will mirror that one. I assume it will cook well in a wood fired oven?

[@SimpleSourdough]

Works very well!

What a great video and explanation! What can I use instead of a pizza stone? I don't have one😞

[@SimpleSourdough]

Baking steel? :)

[@DANVIIL]

How long do you rest the dough after you take it out of the refrigerator before making the pizza ? Do you really use 360+ grams per pizza? Beautiful results and just the recipe I'm looking for.

[@SimpleSourdough]

1 hour rest time

[@nitingons]

I usually use Olive oil to eat with the crust! Never waste the crust...

[@veganaoeltsch]

perfect - i will do this :-D DANKE

[@SimpleSourdough]

Welcome!

[@micheljodoin531]

Thank you for the nice recipe. My question is : how long do you wait after you take out the balls from the fridge before making pizza ? Thanks !

[@SimpleSourdough]

30min - 1 hour

[@NicolasEjzenberg]

If I take my dough out from the fridge, should I let it come to room temperature before using it ?

[@garypostell5268]

Yes

[@SimpleSourdough]

Yes one hour

Hello my friend.I have been looking and learning a lot from all your wonderful videos thank you for posting. I was wondering what type of mixer that is in this pizza vid?

[@ismailbeevikmpitchai3650]

Hi I made the pizza today. The dough after hand mixing was sticky. Rested for 30mts and bulk fermented for 3hrs. I was able to make the pizza . The edges were charred but the bottom part was white in colour. The edges had very minimal holes. My kitchen temperature was 30c today

[@SimpleSourdough]

Get a baking steel :)

[@onemorething100]

Man can not live off of bread alone, but I’m willing to try

[@Gorkilein]

Very good result. But I would make a more hydration dough.

[@SimpleSourdough]

Both works well :-)

[@MrALBANIA123456]

Thank you for sharing your recipe. Can the dough get over proof by leaving it in the fridge for 3 days?

[@SimpleSourdough]

Sometimes if fridge is not cold

[@chennanthatcher8225]

Yummmmmm! 🥰

[@naderdrbas8509]

شكرا شيف .. هل تستطيع اضافة ترجمة الى الفيديو او كتابة الشرح اللذي تتحدث به . لكي يستطيع الجميع ان يفهم فكرتك .

[@jackskalski3699]

Interesting video. Is there any concrete reason why olive oil is not in the dough, like there was a reason why there was no autolyse?

[@SimpleSourdough]

Both can be used :)

[@velocitygirl8551]

WOWWWW!!!

[@SimpleSourdough]

:-D

[@greglee1585]

Thank you for this recipe! I made it last night and it was delicious. My question to is if I wanted to made 10 dough balls, I understand the flour and water will change, but how do I adjust the sourdough? Do I increase the amount of sourdough, like I increase the flour and water, or does the sourdough stay constant?

[@SimpleSourdough]

Use breadcalc.com and just multiply the recipe :)

[@maddoggie4537]

Hi, can i understand this as single-rise pizza dough, since you shape the dough balls first, and then let them do 3-hour bulk fermentation, then bake directly or cold fermention for a while before bakiing.

[@SimpleSourdough]

Works aswell :)

[@J-Loaf]

Hi, wonderful content on this channel - keep it up! I have a question on mixing - I don't have a mixer, so how long would you hand-mix this dough for? I guess the lower hydration will make this more difficult?

[@SimpleSourdough]

Hi John, Thank you! For handmixing. Just mix ingredients and fold for 2 times. Other method is to ‘slap and fold’ the dough for a minute or so :-)

[@iblessyou.forextrablessing7597]

Nice 👍

[@kamillaAsten]

After the dough has rested in the fridge for a few days, and you are ready to bake it, do you take the dough out, so it can get warmer (room temperature) or do you shape it, when it is cold?

[@SimpleSourdough]

Usually 1h in room temp first

[@brewmaster95060]

Very nice

[@SimpleSourdough]

Thank you!

[@TheMeanor]

Awesome video, thanks for sharing. I will definitely try your recipe. Have you ever tried to add a little bit of whole wheat flour?

[@SimpleSourdough]

Thank you! Yes we surely have :-) it gives a crunchy less spongy crust .

[@alge3399]

Thanks for the video, very informative. If I want to bump up the dough to 68%-70% hydration, do I add more water or should I add more starter? How many grams would I need? I'm cooking in a Onni Koda 16. Thanks! 🇮🇹

[@SimpleSourdough]

use breadcalc.com and just multiply the recipe :)

[@rossr6616]

Thank you. How long out of overnight fridge before forming the pie by hand?

[@SimpleSourdough]

1h

[@AussieAngeS]

Thank you so much. My max oven goes to 260c do I preheat it at 260c and bake at 260c or is that too high? How long would I cook the pizza for please?

[@jackiemartin691]

Great video! Can you freeze the dough to use later? If so, at what point would you freeze it?

[@SimpleSourdough]

Only if it has yeast

[@greglee1585]

Very informative video! I am planning on trying it out one day soon. I like to make around 10 dough balls for cooking in my wood fired oven. How many grams were your dough balls? Knowing this will help me figure out a conversation rate from what you showed? Would the sourdough amount double as well or is this more consistent?

[@SimpleSourdough]

We usually do 250-350g dough. You can just multiply the recipe and itll work :)

[@lollikuzhicov3718]

[@SimpleSourdough]

Sure!

[@as-ly7vk]

Hi can you cook pizza only top Because i saw some other video that pizza cooked in the bottom last part

[@SimpleSourdough]

I guess it depends on how and where the oven heats the most, try it out and get to know your oven :)

[@S7S7820]

Hello.Thank you for the recipe.It doesn't contain oil ?

[@SimpleSourdough]

It can be added

[@mariadraper7517]

I really love your explanation, I just have one question: will it be ok to add a tablespoon of oil inside the dough? If so, when should it be added? at the same time when adding all the ingredients to the mixing bowl? Thank you!

[@BenDickerson-x6t]

I added 5 grams of oil to my dough. I mix everything then add the oil. The oil will help crisp the pizza.

[@jagdishvora5642]

Thanks, you inspire me. Do you run hands on classes?

[@SimpleSourdough]

Yes :-)

[@SimpleSourdough]

Hello P, Please see one of our first videos on the topic :)

[@HannielPanchoo]

Great video, very different from others on KZbin, nice and simple. One question, if I wanted to freeze, could I do that before the bulk proofing?

[@SimpleSourdough]

Thank you very much. In that case I would bake it and then freeze it :-)

[@XMickyMouseX]

Would it be a difference in taste using normal rye sourdough or wheat sourdough? And to prevent the Pizza to taste like Bread would it be a good idea to ferment the sourdough at 26-30 C to activate the yeast instead of the lactic bacteria?

[@SimpleSourdough]

I never tried with a rye starter before. I like the sponge and acidic taste from cold ferment :-)

[@SimpleSourdough]

Will definitely try with a rye starter , thanks

[@krzysztofmedyna3661]

I worry that the rye may not work as needed for proper pizza dough behavior for the same reasons working rye dough is a completely different experience than white/wheat flours. I would love to know how this works out for you if you decide to try it!

[@SimpleSourdough]

@@krzysztofmedyna3661 For sure :-) will try

[@XMickyMouseX]

@@krzysztofmedyna3661 If you use rye starter in a temperature range (26-30 C) and starter rye to water ratio (100-120 %) which pushes the yeast in the starter and strong 00 wheat flower for the pizza dough, it will work in terms of rise. Another question is the taste, as as there are always lactic or vinegar bacteria in the starter the pizza may taste a bit like sourdough bread. Depends probably also on the used toppings. It may be easier to use yeast in the first place, if you don't like bread taste in the pizza dough.

[@hedisandor6827]

Do you rest the dough before the bake on room temperature some time or do you use it straight from the fridge? Thank you!

[@SimpleSourdough]

Both will work but its easier to shape if it has some temperature :)
