Secrets of making pizza with mushrooms
The dish is included in the menu of many restaurants and cafes. There are pizzerias in almost every city, so the taste of the popular dish is familiar to everyone. The basis of the dish is a thin yeast cake made from flour with a high gluten content; the taste of the finished product depends on it. A few tips on how to quickly and efficiently make yeast dough:
- The flour is sifted through a sieve, in the process it will be enriched with oxygen and the dough will rise better.
- The classic Italian recipe uses only water, flour, salt and yeast. You can add oil to keep the dough soft and elastic.
- Yeast is soaked in water for several minutes before being introduced into the workpiece until the granules are completely dissolved.
- Knead the dough for about 30 minutes on a dry floured surface. The better the dough is beaten, the faster it will go. If the dough does not stick to your hands, then it is ready.
- Put the pizza base in a cup, sprinkle with flour on top so that the top layer does not wind up, cover with a napkin, put in a warm place.
- The rise of the mass can be accelerated by placing it in a preheated oven. This method has its drawbacks, fermentation should take a certain time, artificial acceleration of the process will negatively affect the quality. If the temperature is too high, the yeast rod will die and the result will be the opposite of what you want.
- The dough is suitable for about 2-3 hours, this time is enough to prepare the filling.
In pizzerias, the cake is stretched by hand. To prevent the dough from sticking to your hands, they are greased with sunflower oil. The central part should be about 1 cm in thickness, the edges should be 2.5 cm. The shape of the workpiece will turn out in the form of a dish.
For the filling, mushrooms are used in any form. Mushrooms are combined with boiled poultry, seafood, beef or pork. If the mushrooms are raw, they are processed and sautéed. Dried ones are soaked, and salted ones are washed with water. Cheese is an indispensable ingredient in the dish, mozzarella is used in Italy; any hard variety is suitable for homemade pizza.
