Ingredients

Yields 4-6 pizza bases

  • Sourdough plant
  • 800 g lukewarm water
  • 1 kg Gideon Milling White Bread Wheat Flour
  • 2 g fine salt

Method

  1. Mix 150 g of your sourdough plant with the water, salt, and flour.

  2. Fold the dough with damp hands and close with clingwrap to rest in the fridge overnight. If you cannot leave it overnight, place it in a warm spot for at least 45 minutes before preparing to assemble your pizza.

  3. Stretch the dough out into a rough-looking long shape, cut into 4-6 pieces, and then shape them into balls. These dough balls can then be spread out on a pizza pan (we found that using your fingers for this process is best).
