Baking Time:

Instructions
Poolish – Day 1
Add 500g cold water to a bowl. Dissolve 0.5g fresh yeast in the water before adding 500g room temperature Caputo Cuoco flour.
Mix well until it forms a smooth batter without lumps. Cover and let the Poolish rest in a warm place at 16-18 degrees Celsius if possible, or at room temperature (21-23 degrees Celsius) for about 16-18 hours. Then refrigerate the Poolish for 2-4 hours before use.
Dough – Day 2
Add 100g cold water, 2g yeast, and the Poolish to the mixing bowl. Mix for 1-2 minutes.
Then add 500g Caputo Pizzeria flour and 30g salt. Knead at medium to low speed for about 5 minutes. Gradually increase the speed and add the remaining water (100g) while kneading the dough.
Let the dough knead for 15-20 minutes until it reaches a temperature between 22-24 degrees Celsius.
Let the dough rest for 30 minutes on the kitchen counter, covered with a damp cloth.
Divide the dough into 250g pieces and shape them into pizza balls. Let them rise for 3 hours at room temperature.
After 3 hours, place the dough in the refrigerator overnight. The dough can be used between 18-48 hours (best results are achieved after 40-48 hours). Remove the dough from the refrigerator 1-2 hours before use.
Tomato sauce
This tomato sauce is rounded and fresh in flavor, creating more depth and aroma.
– 400g San Marzano tomatoes
– Drain off 100g of tomato juice for a thicker sauce.
– 2g Maldon salt
– 1 tsp oregano
– 1 clove of garlic, pressed or finely chopped
Crush the San Marzano tomatoes by hand or blend gently with a blender until slightly chunky. Let the flavors meld for 2 hours before use, or overnight in the refrigerator. Take out of the refrigerator 1-2 hours before use.
