Camp Chef PZ90 Cooking Guide - Manual (Page 4)

Makes: 6 orange-sized dough balls
Ingredients
3 cups warm water
1 T. and 1 t. active dry yeast
1 T. and 1t. salt
4 cups all purpose flour
2 ½ cups bread flour
Artisan Pizza Dough
Instructions
You will want a large, clean bowl to make and hold
the dough in. Measure 3 cups warm water into the
bucket; add yeast, salt, and flour. Mix until all the
flour is moist, the dough should be firm but sticky.
Let this rise until it doubles, about 1 hour. The
dough is now ready to shape into dough balls or
put in the fridge until it is ready to use, this will last
3 days. The dough is much easier to handle after
being chilled in the fridge. Scrape dough out of the
bucket and shape into 6 dough balls the size of a
large orange. Let them rise at room temperature
for 30 minutes if not chilled, and about 2 hours if
chilled.
The bread flour in the recipe is required in order
to be able to stretch your dough very thin. You will
find that a rolling pin will not be necessary. The
dough should also be wetter than normal dough
so that your pizza crust will have the air pockets of
true artisan bread. Use flour to coat the dough so
you can handle it. Stretch to about a 12 inch pizza,
dust a pizza peel with flour, put the dough on it and
top your pizza.
Note: If you choose to use premade dough such
as Rhodes, it works fine. Just be aware that your
crust will be thicker and you may need to use a
rolling pin. You will also want to cook your pizza at
a lower temperature for a bit longer.
