Ingredients
187 grams Warm water
2 grams Baker's yeast
283 grams All-purpose or bread flour (or "00" Italian pizza flour)
4 grams Salt
Directions
Pour the warm water into a large mixing bowl. Sprinkle the baker's yeast over the water and let it sit for about 1 minute to bloom, then gently stir until the yeast is fully dissolved.
Add the flour to the yeast mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms and no dry flour remains.
Sprinkle the salt over the dough and mix thoroughly with your hands or continue stirring until the salt is evenly incorporated throughout the dough.
Once mixed, the dough is ready to use immediately. Divide into 4 equal portions and stretch or shape each piece into a pizza base, or cover and allow to rise briefly at room temperature before shaping if preferred.
