Pizza Dough Tips
Did you know: authentic Italian pizza tends to use '00 Flour'. This type of flour has a strong protein content to help with that stretchy, elastic dough.
- Use 250-280g of dough for a classic 12-inch pizza base. Use the 250g for a thin crust and 280g for a thick crust.
| Pizza base in inches | Dough weight (thick base) | Dough weight (thin base) |
| 9 inch | 140g | 160g |
| 10 inch | 160g | 200g |
| 12 inch | 225g | 250g |
| 12 inch | 400g | 450g |
