Recipe Card

ingredients

For the Dough

  • 4 cups 00 flour or all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/4 cups lukewarm water
  • 1 1/2 grams dried yeast
  • 1 teaspoon honey or sugar
  • 7 grams salt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

ingredients

Toppings

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 eggs
  • 5 pieces Prosciutto
  • 1 (8 oz) ball burrata
  • 1/2 cup shredded Gruyere cheese
  • 1/2 cup watercress
  • Salt, to taste
  • Coarsely cracked black pepper, to taste

Method

  • Step 1

    To the bowl of a stand mixer add lukewarm water, yeast, honey and gently stir to combine. Allow the yeast to activate.

  • Step 2

    Once the yeast has activated, attach the dough hook to the stand mixer, add flour and mix on medium-low speed until the dough becomes somewhat smooth. Add salt and mix on medium speed until fully incorporated.

  • Step 3

    Remove the dough from the mixer and knead with your hands until it springs back when poked. Transfer to a large mixing bowl, rub 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil over the dough and cover with plastic wrap. Allow the dough to rest and rise until it has doubled in size, about 1-3 hours. If making one day ahead, place in the fridge overnight.

  • Step 4

    When the dough has doubled in size, punch down the dough until it deflates and place it on a floured clean surface. Divide in 2-3 equal parts and shape them into balls using your hands. Once done, cover them with a clean cloth and let them stand for 30 minutes at room temperature, before using them to make your pizzas.

To Bake and Assemble Pizza

  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 450°F and oil a baking sheet.

  • Step 2

    Spread the dough to your preferred size and place it on top of the baking sheet.

  • Step 3

    Rub olive oil on the pizza dough then spread the watercress along with gruyere around the pizza, bake the pizza for 10 minutes,
