Pizza like at Pizza Hut

Ingredients for 2 servings:

• 300 g wheat flour type 550 or Tipo 00
• 100 g durum wheat semolina
• 100 ml water, lukewarm
• 100 ml milk, lukewarm
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 cube of yeast, fresh

Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Rest time approx. 20 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 15 minutes; Total time approx. 50 minutes

Only 20 minutes of rest time

Mix the flour, durum wheat semolina, and salt together in a large bowl. Dissolve the yeast in the lukewarm milk and sugar. Now add the yeast-milk mixture, along with the water and olive oil, to the dry ingredients in the bowl and knead using the dough hook of a mixer or food processor until a smooth dough forms. This takes about 3 minutes. Knead the dough by hand for a good 5 minutes until it feels nice and firm. Divide the dough and rub two round pizza pans with a little olive oil (or leave it whole and place it on a large baking tray). You can now shape the dough into the pans with your hands or simply roll it out with a rolling pin. Let the dough rest in a warm place for 20 minutes. Then brush the pizza crust with a little olive oil. Now it’s up to you to top the pizza however you like. The pizza is then baked in a preheated oven at 250 degrees Celsius (482 degrees Fahrenheit) on the lowest rack for 12-15 minutes. The time may vary depending on the oven. Tip: I like to top the crust with grated cheese for a delicious cheesy crust.
