Wood-Fired Oven Pizza Dough Recipe #288937
This is a recipe sent to us from Woodstone, the makers of our pizza oven. The original recipe sent to us called for 50# of unbleached flour. We called them asnd said that often for a smaller party, we only use 20#!!. they sheepishly sent us a home recipe. This makes 4 or 5 dough balls, each making a 14-16" pizza. That adequately serves a party of 10-14 people. It is typical that many people want to make their own--so there might be a couple of disasters. People put too much stuff on their pizzas, making oven entry and exit tough.
