Recipe:

Ingredients:

• 500 g of wheat harina
• 325 ml of tibia water
• 10 g of salt
• 5 g of fresh yeast
• tomato salsa
• Fresh mozzarella queso
• Fresh albahaca leaves
• olive oil

Steps:

1. In a large bowl, disuel the yeast in tibia water and let it sit for a few minutes until the mixture starts to foam, which indicates that the yeast is active.
2. In another bowl, mix the wheat flour and salt.
3. Leave a tip in the center of the harine mixture and add the activated yeast mixture.
4. With your hands or a spoon, gradually mix the ingredients, incorporating the harina little by little until a sticky mass is formed.
5. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and start kneading for about 10 to 15 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic. Add a little more harina if necessary to prevent the masa from sticking to your hands.
6. Place the dough in a bowl lightly greased with olive oil, covered with a clean cloth and let it rest in a warm place without air currents for approximately 1 hour, until the dough doubles in size.
7. Preheat the oven to the highest temperature possible, generally around 250°C.
8. After resting time, remove the dough from the bowl and divide it into individual portions, depending on the desired size of the pizzas.
9. Using your hands or a roller, stretch each portion of dough into a thin, circular shape.
10. Transfer each disc of dough to a tray to bake or preheated pizza stone.
11. Spread a generous layer of tomato sauce over the dough, leaving a border without covering the surrounding area.
12. Cover the tomato salsa with wheels or dollops of fresh mozzarella queso.
13. Distribute a few slices of fresh albahaca over the queso, adding an aromatic touch to the plate.
14. Rocía the pizza with a drizzle of olive oil, enhancing the flavors and contributing to the raw texture of the dough.
15. Bake the pizzas until preheated and cooked for about 10 to 15 minutes, until the dough is golden and raw, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
16. Remove the pizzas from the oven, let them rest for a few minutes so they sit and cool down a little.
17. Cut the pizzas into portions and serve them immediately, enjoying the authentic taste of Neapolitan pizza.
