New York Style Pizza Dough Recipe - only 4 ingredients to make the best pizza dough - flour, water, salt, and yeast. This dough is so easy to work with! Make the dough and refrigerate until ready to use. Can make up to 3 or 4 days in advance.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, mix ingredient just until blended. Let rest for 20 minutes. Mix on low for 2 or 3 minutes, until the dough is springy and smooth.
Divide the dough into three 276g balls. Place each ball in a ziplock bag with a dash of olive oil.
Refrigerate dough overnight before using.
When ready to make the pizza, put the stone/pizza steel in the oven and preheat it to 550ºF. Let the stone/pizza steel sit in the oven for at least 40 minutes before baking the pizza.
Roll out the dough on a piece of parchment paper, add toppings and transfer the assembled pizza on the parchment on to the stone (I use a cookie sheet to do this). Bake for approximately 10 minutes.
Notes:
One note about this recipe. The measurements are in grams. It is always best to bake using weight so that the measurements are correct. You can get a kitchen scale for under $15 on amazon. We use ours all the time. It is a great investment.I mix the dough in my KitchenAid Mixer.I make the dough several days in advance and let it hang out in the fridge.The dough needs to be refrigerated at least 24 hours before using it.For a faster rise, use warm water and a pinch of sugar. Do not refrigerate, you can use the dough immediately.It will keep in the fridge for 3 or 4 days.This recipe makes three 10-12" pizzas.
