classic dough recipe (hand mixed)

This is my main dough recipe that it kept in the fridge over night and mixed by hand not a mixer.

makes 4 pizzas about 8 – 10 inches diameter approx ( depends how good you are at stretching )

500g Type ’00’ flour or strong white
300g  water ( 100ml hot mixed with 200ml from the tap )
1 tbsp olive oil
8g salt
5g dried yeast

mIx the water with the yeast and oil. Sieve the flour in to a bowl and add the salt  mix the salt in then add the water to the flour bit by bit.

knead for 10 minutes ish until you get a velvety dough. split into dough balls and the cover well with cling in a tray and place in the fridge over night for at least 24hours. Take out an hour of so before to warm up to make them easier to stretch. Then stretch ( that is a whole massive topic ) top and cook !
