40 minutes

Pizza dough is the foundation of Italian culinary art, allowing for endless flavor combinations. Its history begins in Naples, where the first pizzaiolos made simple flatbreads topped with fresh ingredients. This dough has a delicate texture, light airiness, and a subtle aroma of olive oil. It holds its shape well, allowing for experimentation with toppings: from classic margherita to rich meat or vegetable variations. The ease of preparation makes it accessible for any home cook, turning the process into a creative journey into the world of Italian flavors. The finished base can be baked to a crispy crust or left soft depending on preferences, making each pizza unique and truly personalized.
