Making the Poulish

Mix the water, dry yeast and honey together. After it is mixed well insert the tipo 00 flour and combine until it is lump free.

Let it sit uncovered for 15 minutes. Then covered for another hour.

Afterward let it rest for 16 to 24 hours in the fridge before continuing with the dough.

Making the Dough

Insert the poulish, tipo 00 flour, manitoba flour and salt into a bowl and start to knead by hand.

Slowly add the water a little bit at a time while continuing to knead.

After all the water is added do not stop until all lumps are gone and the dough does not feel too wet anymore. Stretch the dough as much as possible to activate the gluten, this is very important so the dough does not rip later on. This will take about 15 minutes.

Pile up the dough and rub it with a little olive oil. Then let it rest uncovered for one hour.

Continue by lifting the dough multiple times in the middle to form a ball, putting the seam on the bottom and rubbing it again with a little bit of olive oil. Cover with a lightly wet towel for one hour.

Advance by cutting the dough into 4 equal sized pieces, forming them into smaller balls, lightly covering the work surface with flour and laying the dough on top of it.

Lightly sprinkle flour on top of the dough balls and cover them with saran wrap. Letting it again rest for an hour.

Forming the Dough

Use a good amount of flour to cover the work surface and the top of the dough.

Press the dough into a round pizza shape, making sure to keep a little bit at the edges for a crispy crust.

Use the "special" move to stretch the dough.

Baking

Add the toppings of your choice and bake the pizza on the highest heat you have until the crust shows a hint of brown.

I can suggest adding a bit of freshly ground black pepper before serving, as well as a dash of olive oil and freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
