Ingredients
 
 

Pinsa

  • 700 gr all purpose flour
  • 40 gr rice flour
  • 30 gr soy flour
  • 600 ml lukewarm water
  • 1 gr dry yeast
  • 20 gr salt
  • 20 ml extra virgin olive oil

Toppings

  • 350 gr tomato sauce
  • 250 gr mozzarella
  • ½ zucchini

Instructions
 

  • First, combine the three flours and the yeast in a large bowl and mix well.
  • Next, gradually pour in the water, reserving approximately 50ml for later use.
  • Begin kneading the dough by hand and add the oil and salt when the dough is better formed.
  • Continue to knead the dough for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until it becomes elastic and relatively dry.
  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours.
  • After the dough has chilled, divide it into two equal portions and allow it to rest in the refrigerator for an additional 4 hours.
  • Next, spread each portion of dough out onto a baking tray.
  • Mix together the remaining 50ml of water with some oil and coarse salt and spread the mixture over the two pinsas.
  • Bake the pinsas for 10 minutes at 250°C (480˚F).
  • Remove the pinsas from the oven and add your desired toppings, such as tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, oil, and salt.
  • Return the pinsas to the oven and cook at 200°C (390˚F) for an additional 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly
  • Enjoy your delicious homemade pinsas!

Notes

  • When working the dough, make sure it's elastic and slightly wet. You don't want dry dough when you let it rest for the first two hours.
  • Don't overload your pinsa with many toppings or it may become soggy. Choose a combination of a few.
  • If you have, use a pizza stone. If not, use an oven that goes over 250°C.
