Romana in teglia
Tall, airy pan pizza
This is the Roman family of rectangular pizza served by the piece: open crumb, uneven surface and a base that has to hold up the slice. Here, 75% hydration makes the job at home a little more manageable than professional formulas above 80%. Folds, cold fermentation and careful stretching take the place of the temptation to add flour until the dough stops sticking.
Ingredients
- 500 g (1 lb) white bread/pizza flour
- 375 g (13 oz) water
- 12 g fine salt
- 1 g instant dry yeast
- 15 g (½ oz) extra-virgin olive oil
- 16 g (½ oz) olive oil for the pans
- 10 g olive oil for the surface
Method
- Mix the flour and yeast with 340 g of the water. Stir until you see no dry flour; cover and rest for 20 minutes.
- Dissolve the salt in the remaining 35 g of water. Add this water in three additions, squeezing and folding the dough until each one is absorbed.
The full method (12 steps), Rico's tip, the variations and storage are in the ebook “Pizzas”. The English edition is coming soon.
