This dough is top notch. I was kitchen manager at a nice restaurant for years. I made this dough. Proofed for 5 hours.. knocked it down.. proofed another hour.. then cut into 4 portions.. oiled and put in fridge for 24 hours. I found 48 hours from making the dough will give you pizza dough that rivals the best money can buy. Great recipe (The best crust I've ever had). 5 hour rise knock it down... 1 hour rise knock it down.. divide.. oil.. fridge 24 hours.. pull 2 hours before making pizza.. form sauce cheese toppings then bake. God it was good.

Just a tip (yeah I'm that guy): If you let it proof for 2-3 days in the fridge the taste and crispiness becomes amazing. Looks like you used a TON of yeast which for using same day works I guess. But a 1 hour proof will never taste as good as 24-72 hours. And when you're baking at home in a regular oven that proofing is essential.

Reduce the yeast to literally a gram or two and your pizzas will be much more digestible and light for the stomach, but improve your kneading and get the air inside and you will get much better results. Talking from experience since I myself was on a pizza journey the past 2 weeks and I learnt so much! I experimented with different flours, hidrations, kneading techniques, yeast quantities and this is what works the best so far for me: 66% hidration, 1g yeast per 100ml of water and a bunch of kneading, in 3 separate phases and 20 minutes of rest in between, before leting the dough proof for x hours. Also, don’t forget to protect your dough from air or it will be ruined! Close it in some kinda of a bowl and oil it properly so it doesn’t stick. Good luck!

I wanna share you this treat, I hope you can recreate it without looking online until you are done. Basically Cream Buns with a lids cut in a Diamond shape. Ingredients DOUGH 25g of fresh yeast 125ml of whole milk, cold 2 tsp cardamom pod 325g of plain flour 1 medium free-range egg, lightly beaten 50g of granulated sugar 1/2 tbsp of baking powder 1/2 tsp salt 100g of unsalted butter, softened EGG WASH 1 egg, lightly beaten with 1 tbsp of water FILLING 100g of ground almonds 100g of granulated sugar 3 tbsp of water 1/2 tsp cardamom seeds 1 tsp vanilla extract VANILLA CREAM 200ml of double cream 1 tbsp of icing sugar, plus extra for dusting 1 tsp vanilla extract 1. Begin by making the dough. Place the yeast in the bowl of a food mixer fitted with a dough hook. Gently stir in the cold milk until the yeast has completely dissolved 2. Crush the cardamom in a pestle and mortar and remove the outer pods. Grind the remaining seeds to a fine powder and add to the yeast and milk in the mixing bowl 3. Add the plain flour, beaten egg, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt to the bowl. Start mixing on a medium speed for 5 minutes, or until a ball of dough forms 4. Cut the butter into pieces and add to the dough a piece at a time, ensuring that each piece is incorporated before adding the next. Continue to mix the dough for another 10-15 minutes 5. When the dough stops sticking to the side of the bowl and is very soft and elastic, turn off the mixer. Leave the dough to rest in the bowl for 10 minutes 6. Divide the dough into 9 pieces, approximately 70-80g each. On a clean work surface (you shouldn't need to dust it with flour) take a piece at a time and lightly cup your hand around it. Without using too much pressure roll each piece around on the work surface in a circular motion to shape it into a smooth round ball 7. Cover a large flat baking tray with baking paper. Place the balls of dough on the paper, making sure you leave some room in between each one for spreading. Cover with a clean cloth and leave to rise somewhere warm for 1 hour 30 minutes 8. Preheat the oven to 220°C 9. Brush the tops of each of the buns lightly with egg wash and bake in the oven for 10 minutes or until golden. Remove and leave to cool on a wire rack 10. Meanwhile, make the filling by placing the ground almonds and granulated sugar in a blender. Blend together and add just enough of the water to make a smooth paste 11. Crush the cardamom for the filling in a pestle and mortar and remove the pods. Grind the seeds to a fine powder and add to the almond paste along with the vanilla extract 12. Using a small sharp knife, cut a lid off of the top of each bun and make a little well in the middle by scooping out some of the bread - add any crumbs to the almond paste 13. Use 1 tablespoon of the double cream to loosen the almond paste mixture a little and spoon the paste into the holes 14. To make the vanilla cream, whip the whipping cream adding powdered sugar and vanilla extract. whip until firms. 15. Spoon or pipe the cream on top of the almond filling and top the cream with the lid. Dust with icing sugar and serve. (once you are done, google "semlor" and see how you did). No need to film it, just thought it would be fun. let me know if you made them.

I'm always afraid it'll spoil before I eat it all, or I'll eat the whole thing in one or two days so it doesn't go bad, but regret it afterwards. It's good to know that pizza dough can be frozen so I can make a smaller pizza when the mood strikes. Also, I can't find a decent frozen vegetable pizza in the supermarket.
