Please make your own dough, it is extremely easy to do.

 

This recipe has been my go to now for several months but it changes over time.

The good thing about this is if you don't want to wait 24 hours, just increase the yeast amount and it's still excellent. On Saturday I turned it around in 5 hours, which I used a sachet of yeast rather than just a gram or so.

Nice one cheers, will give it a go when I get the oven!

Leics - Martinbros, Maurizio’s, Peter’s

Notts - Pizzamisu, Slice n Brew, Rudy’s

The Bradgate in Newtown Linford. Cooked perfectly to order. 

 

It's a pub, not a pizzeria but it excels IMO.

I’ve just bought an Ooni koda 2 (gas) 

 

I’m up to my neck in flour and dough and trying a cold ferment overnight, I’m new to this so any tips? I’ve bought a pizza peel, is it hard to get the pizza onto the pizza peel or is there a knack to it? 
 

I must have watched about 30 videos on tik tok with different recipes. Anyone got a really easy one either same day that still tastes nice or one where tou put the dough in the fridge?  
 

Dough gets f*cking everywhere doesn’t it 

Any good recommendations for pizza base sauce? Or any tips in general for a newbie?

I remember seeing the below video and where I’ve time stamped helped me with getting it on/off peel and never had a problem with it.

 

It’s a learning experience and you’ll set the things on fire and do all sorts. Tastes so much better when you nail it though.

 

Best sauce I ever made was actually a leftover bolognaise sauce I’d made it a slow cooker and just had to hand. All preference if you want a fresh tomato and basil flavour or a richer one cooked and reduced.

 

Good luck!

Was there this weekend and can confirm very good. Firestation in Rothley still the best in Leicester for me but the Swan is a great option.
