My pizza cravings were strong this weekend so I wanted to see if I could make a good pizza dough in the same time it normally takes me to cook dinner. I also made a 72-hour fermented pizza dough so I could cook them up at the same time and compare. Shout out to @leopardcrust for the killer recipe, you can check them out below and try them out for yourself.

72-Hour Dough

- 470g type ‘00’ flour
- 14g sea salt
- 1g dry yeast
- 330g water
1. In a jar dissolve the salt and yeast in the water.
2. Then, in a large bowl pour your flour in and create a well in the middle. Pour in the water, yeast and salt mixture and, working from the centre out, start to bring the dough together. Once you have what looks like a shaggy mess, pour this onto a lightly dusted, clean bench and begin to knead until you have a nice smooth consistent dough.
3. Cover your dough and leave somewhere warm to bulk ferment until it has doubled in size. This will take anything from 6 to 10 hours depending on how active your yeast is and how warm the air temperature is.
4. Once it has doubled in size, get it back on the bench and fold in on itself two or three times and make into three even size dough balls. They should all be just over 270g each.
5. Roll each dough ball in on itself, using the back of your hand and the friction of the bench, pull towards yourself so they are nice and tight. Place in an airtight container and in the fridge for 24-72 hours.
6. Remove 1 hour before you need to cook.

1-Hour Dough

4. Turn the oven off.
5. Cover the dough and leave it in the oven warm to bulk ferment until it has doubled in size. This will take anything from 30mins to 1 hour depending on how active your yeast is and how warm the oven temperature is.
