Ingredients

1 portion pizza dough
100 g blue cheese

A handfull of fresh basil leaves

Perfect pizza dough This is the best pizza dough recipe ever, I always make this one with kamut and durum flour for a crispy and sweet result!

250 ml lukewarm water
25 g active yeast
150 g durum flour
250 g kamut flour (or another wholegrain flour e.g. spelt, graham)
1 tsp sea salt
1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

In a bowl dissolve yeast in 1/5 of the water. Add 2 Tbsp of durum flour and mix it with the yeast mixture. Then cover the bowl with a cloth and place on the kitchen counter for approx. 30 min.
Preheat the oven to it’s maximum temperature and leave the baking stones in the oven while heating it.
Remove the cloth from the bowl. The mixture should look bobbling and the yeast should be active. Add the remaining water, olive oil and salt and mix it together. Add all of the flour and knead the dough in the bowl until it stays well together.
On a clean surface drizzle some durum flour and divide the dough into four portions. Role out each portion of pizza dough and place on parchment. Add 1 tsp of garlic & basil oil to each portion of dough and spread it across the whole surface. Then add 2 pieces of serrano, half a fig cut into pieces and chunks of blue cheese to each pizza dough.
Remove baking stones from oven and quickly lift the parchment with pizza on to it and place it back in the oven. Bake for approx. 10 min or until the pizzas look golden and delicious.

Notes

Serve the pizzas with fresh basil leaves, fresh baby spinach and some extra garlic & basil oil to drizzle on top if desired.

WARNING: You might find yourself eating more than one pizza…but take it from a professional; it is perfectly normal and you should not worry too much, just enjoy ;)
