This makes a very nice smooth dough with a lot of elasticity. Handles well when rolling and is fantastic when cooked in the oven. We have used this over a wood fire too and it browns and crisps up nicley. This recipe has a 63% hydration ratio.

Most of the time when we make pizza dough we do a 3-5 day cold ferment in the refrigerator. It develops texture and flavors. All kinds of things happen when you do a long ferment. But sometimes we need something quicker. This is a dough we turn to when we are cooking pizza in the oven and need a same-day dough. We still do a day-long or 5-hour ferment.
