Pizzas Past and Present (Video)
” In this exclusive Hungry History video, host Ian Knauer serves up pizza history, from the flatbreads of ancient Pompeii to today’s pies. He also takes us through the steps of making a classic Margherita pizza at home. Follow his recipe (taken from his cookbook “The Farm: Rustic Recipes for a Year of Incredible Food”) to turn your own kitchen into an authentic pizza parlor.”
“PIZZA DOUGH
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
1 cup warm water
3 cups bread flour or all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons kosher saltStir together yeast and water until dissolved.
Stir the ingredients together in a large bowl until combined, then transfer the dough to a flourless work surface. Knead the dough until it becomes elastic and pulls off the work surface.
Oil the bowl, then shape the dough into a ball and place it back in the bowl, turning to coat.
Cover the bowl with a towel and let rest at room temperature until it doubles in size, about 1 hour in a warm room.”
