Thin and crispy pizza dough
« on: April 24, 2010, 08:26:46 am »
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,  :: 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!

Me too Kathryn but I only make 3, not 4 bases from the EDC pastry - would hate to think how thin they would be if I made 4  ???  Wish they would tell you what size to roll the bases  - oops there's another tweak for Tenina.  MJ are you reading this ;)

How do you make pizza pockets?

Is a pizza stone vital?

There was a calzone recipe in the calendar last year.  Basically a pizza dough has filling placed on half and then folded over like a Cornish pastie and sealed and cooked.

pizza stone is not essential, but helps speed up cooking.

Pizza pockets are similar to Calzone - i got the idea out of Budget Busters I think.  I just do Hawaiian filling for the girls.  They freeze well and are great for lunch boxes.

We have pizza stones - they make a crispier base.

Yum! Love crispy pizza base. Thanks! :-*
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

We love the EDC recipe. I make 3 from it. 2 thicker for some of us and 1 thin for DH.

I made pizzas using this dough recipe tonight, and it was the best one so far. Thanks for posting it :)

It's the only one we use now.  We use it at least once a month!
