We have been looking for our "favourite" pizza dough ..... and I think this is it!  We also love Chelsea's soaked wholegrain pizza dough - but it need forward planning and doesnt work for the spontaneous last-minute pizza.  We made 4 pizzas with this tonight - basic ham and pineapple, turkish lamb, pumpkin fetta and za'atar, and smoked sausage with capsicum and olives.  All were sensational!  Great recipe - thanks  :-*

Does this pizza dough need no rising, just make, roll and bake?

Hi Ladies,
I'm a bit of a newbie here. I like the sound of this recipe - just want to check - do I need to pre-bake the dough before placing any toppings on it? We will be baking the pizza in a pizza maker.

Thanks

Susan

Hi Susan,
No, I didnt prebake it at all - we cooked ours on a metal tray on a pizza stone in a weber BBQ - but I imagine that a pizza oven would be the same.

I made the dough exactly as the recipe said, just plonked it on the silicone mat on the bench for the few minutes it took me to wash the TMX, then rolled it out, put it straight onto the trays, topping straight on and into the BBQ.   Deeeeeeeeelicious. 

But if you wanted a thicker more doughy pizza base, I am sure you could let it rise a bit too.

Hi
here is our favourite pizza dough - it originates from www.bestrecipes.com.au

In the TMX bowl, add 170g water.  37deg for 1 minute on speed 1.

Add 1tsp salt, 1 tsp sugar and 7g yeast (I use about 10).  Mix on speed 1 for 1 minute.

Add 260g plain flour.  Mix speed 5 for 20 sec.  This mix sometimes needs a dash or two more of water.  When it's mixed and the right consistency,  corn for 2 minutes.

Turn out on to a floured board or mat and roll in to your desired pizza size.  One mix makes 2 really big bases or 3 medium bases.  I use this recipe for pizza pockets as well and it easily makes 10.

Cook and enjoy!
   

I'd really like to try this recipe, but wonder what this symbol means " ::".  When I hover my pointer over it, it says corn.  As Pauleen said "please explain". :D
Cheers, Nola.

That would be the knead function Nola.

Hi CreamPuff, The Thermo Chef actually does have a knead function.

Like the sound of this Narelle!  Thank you for sharing the recipe as I love thin and crispy as well.  However, I have never used plain flour for pizza dough.  Do you know if it would work with Italian flour 00 di Gran Tenero?  Thank you.

Thanks Chookie.  I will try it with the Italian flour to start with as I have tons of stuff to use up!
