INSTRUCTIONS

Dough:

  • In a bowl, combine water, yeast, and flour. Gradually mix in olive oil while kneading. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
  • Add salt and fold the dough to incorporate. Cover and let rise for another 30 minutes.
  • Repeat folding every 30 minutes until the dough is less liquid and uniform.
  • Divide into 2 balls, cover, and refrigerate overnight or up to 72 hours.

Sauce:

  • Cut the tip off a head of garlic, place it on a baking sheet with parchment paper and aluminum foil, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt. Wrap and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 40-60 minutes.
  • Extract the garlic and mix with all the sauce ingredients.

Assembly:

  • Remove the dough balls from the fridge about an hour before use.
  • Preheat the oven to 465°F (240°C) for about 40 minutes with an inverted baking tray, dedicated steel surface, or pizza stone inside.
  • Create indentations on both sides of the dough on a floured surface, shake off excess flour, and carefully transfer to the hot baking tray or surface.
  • Place the spread in the center of the dough and bake for 5-7 minutes until lightly browned. Remove, sprinkle with mozzarella, and return to the oven for another 7-10 minutes until golden.
  • Sprinkle with chopped parsley and crushed chili, then cut into desired sizes.
