Preparation Time - Preparation time: 30 minutes - Rising time: 6-8 hours (or 1-2 hours, depending on room temperature) - Baking time: 20 minutes - Total: approximately 7-8 hours (including rising) - Number of servings: 2 pizzas with a diameter of 40 cm Ingredients For the dough (for 2 pizzas): - 500 grams of type 000 flour (or pizza flour) - 1 packet (or 25 grams) of dry yeast (or 30 grams of fresh yeast) - 1 teaspoon salt - Warm water (enough to cover the flour, approximately 300-350 ml) - 5-6 tablespoons sunflower oil For the filling (double for 2 pizzas): - 1 small can of tomato paste - 1 red bell pepper, cut into thin strips - ½ fresh tomato, sliced - Spicy chicken salami, sliced thinly - Pieces of Dutch cheese - 150 grams of mozzarella, diced - Bruschetta spices - Provençal herbs - Italian herb mix for sauces and pizza - Olive oil - 1 teaspoon garlic powder (for each pizza) Ingredient Details Type 000 flour is ideal for achieving a perfect crust, having a higher gluten content. Dry yeast is easy to use, but fresh yeast brings a more intense flavor. Sunflower oil gives a pleasant taste, but you can also experiment with olive oil for added flavor. Spicy chicken salami adds a bit of heat, while mozzarella provides a creamy texture. Step by Step - Preparing the Dough 1. Mixing Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the flour with the salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast. Gradually pour in the warm water, stirring with a wooden spoon until the dough begins to form. 2. Kneading: Add the sunflower oil and knead the dough with clean hands for 10-15 minutes until it becomes elastic and pulls away from the bowl's sides. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour. 3. Rising: Shape the dough into a ball and place it in an oiled bowl. Cover with a damp towel and let it rise in a warm place for 6-8 hours or until it doubles in size. Preparing the Filling 1. Preparing the Trays: Grease the two pizza trays with sunflower oil to prevent sticking. 2. Dividing the Dough: After the dough has risen, divide it into two. Using your palms, stretch each piece of dough into the shape of the tray, leaving the edges slightly thicker. 3. Adding Tomato Paste: Use a spoon to spread the tomato paste on each pizza, leaving a small space at the edges. 4. Seasoning: Drizzle with olive oil and generously sprinkle the bruschetta spices, Provençal herbs, and Italian herbs to enhance the flavors. Assembling the Pizza 1. Adding Ingredients: Arrange the slices of red bell pepper, spicy salami, cheese pieces, and mozzarella evenly on each pizza. Sprinkle more Italian herbs and garlic powder for extra flavor. 2. Baking: Preheat the oven to 260°C. Place the pizza in the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until the edges are golden and crispy. Serving and Variations Pizza is delicious served hot, but you can accompany it with a fresh green salad or a yogurt garlic sauce for a refreshing contrast. If you want to experiment, you can add toppings like mushrooms, olives, or hot peppers for an even bolder taste. Frequently Asked Questions - Can I use whole wheat flour? Yes, but the pizza will have a denser texture. You can mix white flour with whole wheat flour for a compromise. - How can I make the pizza crunchier? Bake the pizza on a preheated pizza stone or at a higher temperature for a shorter time. - Can I freeze the pizza? Yes, you can freeze unbaked pizza. Wrap it well in plastic wrap and place it in the freezer. Bake it straight from the freezer, adding a few minutes to the baking time. Nutritional Benefits Spicy chicken salami and mozzarella pizza is a good source of carbohydrates from the flour, protein from the salami and mozzarella, and vitamins from the vegetables. It also contains healthy fats from the olive oil and sunflower oil. However, it is important to consume pizza in moderation, considering its calorie content. In conclusion, spicy chicken salami and mozzarella pizza is not just a delicious recipe but also a perfect way to enjoy moments spent with loved ones. Whether you serve it at a casual dinner or a party, it is definitely a dish that will impress! Enjoy your meal!
Preparation
Knead the dough with clean hands using flour, salt, yeast, warm water, and a little sunflower oil until it separates from the sides of the bowl. Cover it and let it rise. I made it in the morning and left it until 5 PM. This dough will make 2 pizzas approximately 40 cm in diameter. Grease the pizza tray with a little sunflower oil. Divide the dough into 2 and stretch it in the pizza tray with your hands, leaving the edges a bit thicker. Press with your fingers. Spread a teaspoon of tomato paste and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with bruschetta seasoning, Provencal herbs, and a generous mix of Italian herbs. Place thinly sliced bell peppers, spicy salami, and then pieces of cheese. Add pieces of mozzarella as well. Drizzle everything with Italian herbs, a full teaspoon of garlic powder, and olive oil. Put the tray in the preheated oven on high heat (I have electric) for about 20 minutes at 260 degrees. Enjoy your meal!
