One kilo of flour will make 10 pizzas depending on how thick you like the base. We recommend a thin crust, which is a
more traditional Italian style, and also it’s more fun to make many different styles with your favourite ingredients. Surplus dough
can be stored in the fridge.
Pizza Base:
1kg of Plain flour
1 sachet of dried yeast (7g)
Pinch of sugar
30g of salt
1 tbsp of olive oil
625ml of tepid water
- Place dry ingredients in a large bowl and make a well in the center.
- Add oil to the water, mix to a moist dough using a wooden spoon.
- Place on floured surface and knead for 5min.
- Lightly oil bowl and return the dough, deeply scoring the surface.
- Cover with plastic wrap and place in warm area until double in size.
- Divide dough into portions and roll into desired shape and thickness. Approx 0.5cm.
- Place bases on trays that have been lightly sprinkled with polenta or flour.
- Cook in a heated pizza oven as directed until base is golden brown and crisp.

Standard oven trays function perfectly in the Pizzaque Oven.
Pizzaque as a Smoker
Heat oven to 200°F- Place 1-2 handfulls of sawdust (available at fishing tackle shops) over large tray
- Cover with cake rack cooler
- Place well-seasoned opened whole fish or fillets, skin down on the rack
- Place tray in oven for 8-12 minutes
Fish, chicken or lamb cooked this way minus the sawdust remains moist and retains its flavour.
