How to make delicious pizza dough without kneading

To prepare delicious no-knead pizza dough you will need:

Ingredients:

For the pizza
-470 grams of 000 flour
-1 teaspoon and 1/2 of salt
-1/2 teaspoon of sugar
-2 tablespoons of oil
-380 ml of warm water
-5 grams of dry yeast or 20 grams of fresh yeast
For the Tomato sauce
-1 onion
-2 cloves of garlic
-1 1/2 cups tomato sauce
-Basil and oregano
-Salt and bay leaves

Preparation:

1. Let’s start by preparing the dough. In a large bowl, mix the flour, salt and sugar.
2. In another container, dissolve the yeast in warm water. If you use fresh yeast make sure you crumble it well in the water.
3. Pour the yeast and water mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Add the oil and start mixing with a wooden spoon until all the ingredients are incorporated. The dough will be sticky, but that’s normal!
4. Cover the bowl with a clean cloth or cling film and let the dough rest in a warm place for at least 2 hours. During this time, the dough will rise and ferment, developing its flavor and texture without the need for kneading.
5. While the dough rests you can prepare the tomato sauce.

For sauce and baking

1. In a pan with a drizzle of oil, brown the chopped onion and garlic until golden. Add the tomato sauce, basil, oregano, salt and bay leaves.
2. Simmer for about 10 minutes, then remove the bay leaves.
3. Preheat the oven to the highest temperature possible, usually around 220°C, and place a baking tray in the oven to heat.
4. Divide the dough into portions based on the size of the pizzas you want to make. Roll each portion into a circle of desired size on a floured surface.
5. Once the oven is hot, place the dough on the pizza stone or hot baking sheet. Cook for about 5 minutes until the dough begins to brown slightly.
6. Remove the dough from the oven and add the tomato sauce and your favorite pizza toppings.
7. Then, return the pizza to the oven and bake until the crust is golden brown and the toppings are cooked to your liking.

And this is all! Your homemade no-knead pizza is ready to be enjoyed. Serve hot and enjoy the goodness you have created.
