Homemade wood-fired pizza recipe

For make your own homemade wood-fired pizza, or in the electric oven, you just need the right ingredients and an oven. So let's start with the shopping list 😉

Homemade pizza ingredients:

Half a glass of warm milk.

Half a glass of olive oil.

1 glass of flour.

1 egg

Salt, fried tomato, cheese and oregano.

Ingredients to taste for your pizza. It can be: ham, mushrooms, anchovies, vegetables ... You decide!

Once you have your ingredients It's time to get down to business! And, to begin with, we have to work that, the dough.

Step 1:

We mix all the ingredients of the dough and we let it rest for 2 hours: the milk, the oil, the flour, the egg and the salt.

Step 2:

After 2 hours, we take the dough and work it to create its new shape, which will be that of a pizza. It can be round or square, you can even let your imagination fly and give it some shape.

The only thing you have to keep in mind is that the base has to be consistent and that the dough has to fit in the oven.

Step 3:

Before starting with one of the funniest steps of the homemade pizza recipe, you have to prepare the oven.

If you are going to make a homemade wood-fired pizzaIdeally, you should start turning it on in time to reach the ideal temperature, which will be 180 degrees. To control the temperature, we recommend that you do it with the help of a pyrometer (basic for cooking in wood-fired ovens). If you are going to make your pizza in your electric oven, you only have to prepare it at the recommended temperature, already indicated.

Step 4:

With the oven ready, you just have to put the ingredients you want on the prepared homemade dough and voila!

Remember that you have to put a tomato base, before adding the rest of the ingredients and, when you finish, a layer of cheese and oregano, the result will be spectacular!

Then you can put the pizza in the oven. In the case of cooking your homemade pizza in a wood-fired oven, we recommend that you do it with the help of a pizza shovel for wood-fired ovens. In our online store Hornosdeleña.com, you will find blades of different sizes and materials, so you can choose the one that best suits your needs.

You just have to wait 15 minutes and that's it! Now you can take your pizza out of the oven and enjoy it. And, in this case, we also recommend that you do it with the help of your oven shovel, to avoid burning yourself 😉

As you see, this It is a simple recipe that you can make as a family. Children will find it very fun and you will love the result.

  1. THE PIZZA RECIPE IS PHENOMENAL, BUT REGARDING THE WOOD-BURNING OVEN THE DOUBTS ARE:
    – WITH EMBERS INSIDE OR WITHOUT THEM.
    – WITH EMBERS INSIDE BUT WITH REFRACTORY SCREEN.

    THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

    • Hello David, For pizza it is good if there are embers left, even a little flame is good too, that way it browns faster. Better to put the screen, so the part that is close to the embers does not burn as fast, and it is done more evenly.
      A greeting.

  2. Hello, for example I can't get the bottom part of the dough to be completely done. The pizza is perfect, except for the bottom dough, the one that sticks to the oven. How can I solve it? Thank you.

    • Hello, if the dough does not cook from the bottom, it is because the bottom of the oven does not have enough temperature. One trick that pizza makers have when the floor cools down is to spread the embers all over the floor again and let it heat up again and remove them again. All the best.

        • Hello, you can clean the ashes with the metal bristle brush. You can also put the pizzas on parchment paper so they don't touch the bottom of the oven.

  3. I have difficulties to put the pizza in the oven to cook them. It sticks to my shovel. How can I solve it?

    • Hello, if you sprinkle the shovel with flour before putting the dough on top, you will see how it does not stick. All the best
