Instructions

  1. Activate the yeast. Add the yeast and sugar to 75g of the water. Let sit until activated and foamy.
  2. Combine. Add the yeast mixture and the remaining 100g water to the flour. Mix until shaggy, then let rest a bit.
  3. Knead. Continue in a stand mixer with the dough hook, adding the salt, until well incorporated and smooth.
  4. Rise. Place in the fridge, or let rise at room temperature until doubled.
  5. Bring to room temp. 2 to 4 hours before you're ready to make pizza, remove the dough from the fridge — it should be at room temperature by the time you need to work with it.
  6. Divide. Split the dough into 2 dough balls, about 230g each.
