Ingredients to make Pizza Base:
- 2 cups flour
- 1 tablespoon of oil
- 1 1/2 tablespoons of fine salt
- 1 2x2x2 cm piece of yeast (buy it at any bakery).
How to make Pizza Base:
- In a bowl, mix the flour, salt and oil, in order to bind everything very well (the point is when lumps form).
- Warm the milk and dissolve the yeast in it.
- Add the milk to the bowl and knead everything until firm (make a bun).
- Put the bun in a plastic bag, removing the air and sprinkling flour on top, so that when it rises it does not stick.
- Let it rise in a dark and warm place for about 1 hour.
- Heat the oven to 230/250ºC.
- Take a baking dish, grease it with oil and sprinkle flour on top.
- Once the bun is left (it has doubled in size at least), stretch it with your hands, with radial movements (from the center out), in order to give it a disk shape.
- Put it in the dish, adapt it to size and make dimples with your fingers.
- Cook it in the oven in the middle part, approximately 15 min. (It depends a lot on the type of oven, that is, on the heat distribution capacity).
- The point is achieved more with smell (bakery smell) than by sight.
- And that’s it.
- All that remains is to smear the base with a tomato sauce and cover it with the ingredients that most suit you.
- This base, once cooked, can be frozen by wrapping it in aluminum foil.
