@privateandempowered: Tonight's dinner is homemade pizza! 🍕✨️ There is something deeply rewarding about making a pizza from scratch! This pizza starts off with an olive oil base, a layer of pizza sauce made from scratch and loaded with mozzarella cheese and pepperonis! Every slice is pure deliciousness! 🍕🫒🍅🧀😋✨ This is my first time making homemade pizza from scratch! I am so happy with how it turned out! It was perfect! 🤗👌 My husband 😍♥️ and my twin 12 year old daughters 💕 loved and enjoyed it! 😋 Using my food thermometer, I made sure my water was 110°F or below before adding it to my dry mixture because if it's too hot, the yeast will die and the dough will not rise properly! This step is very important if you want a perfect pizza! I used active dry yeast! I did not use instant dry yeast! I let the yeast mixture sit for 10 minutes until it was foamy and frothy! Once your yeast mixture is foamy and frothy, it is fully proofed and ready to use in your recipe! The main difference between instant and active dry yeast is activation. Active dry yeast requires dissolving in warm liquid to proof before use while instant yeast can be mixed directly into dry ingredients. 🍕✨️ After kneading, the dough should still feel a little soft. If you gently press down on the dough with your finger and it slowly bounces back, your dough is ready to rise! 🙌 I do not have one of those fancy, expensive stand mixers so I kneaded by hand! I will be buying a stand mixer very soon to level up my cooking and baking! 🤩 I let the pizza dough proof/rise for 1 hour in a lightly greased and covered bowl. After the pizza dough was finished proofing, I released the air in the dough by gently punching down into the dough. Next, I rolled the pizza dough out into a large circle with my rolling pin then I started building the pizza with the toppings and my homemade pizza sauce! I baked the pizza in the oven at 450° for 15 minutes! 🍕🫒🍅🧀✨️ Today is my fast day so I did not eat any of this pizza! I will enjoy a slice tomorrow on my feast day! 😋🍕 In an effort to maintain my weight of 108 pounds, I do not eat pizza all of the time! Stay tuned for my next cooking show and homemade meal! 🍛 Bon Appétit! 👩‍🍳 #homemadepizza #pizza #pepperonipizza #EasyRecipes #cooksoftiktok
