Ingredients for Your Pizza Perfection

Here’s what you’ll need to create the ultimate pizza that even your Italian grandmother would approve of:

3 cups King Arthur Neapolitan-Style ‘00’ Pizza Flour
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1 packet (2 ¼ teaspoons) active dry yeast
1 ¼ cups warm water (about 110°F)
Olive oil - for drizzling and greasing
Your choice of toppings: tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, fresh basil, pepperoni, veggies, or anything you fancy!

Getting Your Dough On!

Now that we have our ingredients ready, let’s make some pizza magic!

Start by dissolving the sugar and yeast in warm water in a large bowl. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until bubbly. This is the yeast getting all excited and ready to party!
In another bowl, mix the flour and salt together. Gradually pour in the yeast mixture and stir until a shaggy dough forms.
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead it for about 8-10 minutes, until it’s smooth and elastic. Let that dough feel the love!
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size. Take a moment to admire your creation!
Once it’s risen, punch it down gently (yes, literally) and divide it into two portions. Shape each into a ball and let them rest for another 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to the highest setting (about 500°F is ideal). If you have a pizza stone, put it in the oven to heat up too!
Roll out one of the dough balls on a floured surface, stretching it into your desired shape. Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce, sprinkle on mozzarella, and top with whatever goodies you desire.
Transfer your masterpiece onto a floured pizza peel or a baking sheet. If using a stone, be cautious as you do this!
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden and bubbling. Remember to keep an eye on it, because nobody likes burnt pizza!
Slice, serve, and enjoy your homemade pizza! Take a bow - you deserve it!

Now go ahead, impress your friends and family with your newfound pizza prowess! With King Arthur Neapolitan-Style ‘00’ Pizza Flour in your pantry, you’re ready to become the pizza hero of the neighborhood!
