Pizza anyone?

Salam Alaikum & Hello,

It's Friday! no free from recipe this week (still working on it) however, i do have a top tip amongst my collection of pizza making photos which makes up (i hope) for missing tuesday's top tip post.

Enjoy!

Bake for 8-10minutes in a pre-heated oven set to the highest temperature.

@Sanaa - If you have time you should have a go, you really can't go wrong, also once rolled the pizza bases can be refrigerated stacked between cling film/plastic wrap or sometimes i freeze portions of the dough for another time, just leave them to defrost completely before using.

@Melissa - inshAllah you will find this recipe to your liking, if you haven't for fine semolina i have used cornmeal (fine) before and it's worked out ok. What's not good about the current doughs you have tried?
The hardest thing i find is rolling the bases because sometimes the dough springs back (letting the dough relax for 20mins is essential) so it takes a while but i have heard in the states there is a 'pizza yeast' i think fischmens brand (i don't know that much about it to say its halal or haram)you can buy in sachets which would help prevent the spring back.
Let me know how you find this recipe and one thing if your using non fast action yeast i'm sure you know already but proof it first with some sugar and water, i didn't use any sugar in my recipe because well the fast action yeast seem to perform ok without it.

Sorry for the looooon reply lol but i like to be thorough

I'll let you know how this one works! Inshallah I'll try it soon.
