PREPARATION FOR MOTHER-YEAST PIZZA DOUGH
Preparation:
Melt the mother dough in a bowl adding the warm water. Gradually pour the flour, the sugar and the oil. Finally add the salt and let the dough rise in a warm place, making sure to cover it with a damp rak ( the dough needs 4 hours to double in volume).
Form 8 balls of dough, place them in a baking dish, cover theam with damp rag again and let rise for other 4 hours.
After the second rising, the dough is ready to be used.
Note:
The pizza prepared with the mother dough is more crispy, light and digestible. The preparation and subsequent rising, certainly require more time, but the wait will definitely be rewarded: perfumes, tastes and especially digestibility of pizza made with mother dough are definitely higher than those resulting from the traditional dough.
