Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • Dough: 2 cups 00 flour, 1/2 cup semolina flour, 1 cup water, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp yeast, 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Sauce: 1 cup San Marzano tomatoes, lightly crushed, with a pinch of salt
  • Toppings: Fresh mozzarella, a handful of arugula, thinly sliced prosciutto, grated Parmesan, and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil

Notes

Instructions:
  1. Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, mix flours, salt, and yeast. Gradually add water and olive oil, mixing until dough forms. Knead for 5-7 minutes, until smooth. Cover and let rise in a cool place for 18-24 hours.
  2. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to the highest setting, ideally around 500°F (260°C). A pizza stone works well to create the crispy texture.
  3. Shape and Add Toppings: Roll out the dough thinly, keeping it light. Add a thin layer of sauce, mozzarella, and Parmesan.
  4. Bake: Bake at recommended temperature (for 8-10 minutes), or till crust is golden and cheese is bubbly. Add fresh arugula and prosciutto immediately after removing from the oven. Drizzle with olive oil and serve.
