Calculate the perfect amounts of flour, water, salt and yeast for homemade pizza dough
All ingredient amounts are calculated relative to the flour weight (100%). This is the professional standard used by bakers worldwide.
A standard 9x13-inch pan measures approximately 23x33 cm. Around 600 to 700 grams of dough is a useful starting point for a thick pan pizza, although the ideal amount depends on your preferred crust thickness.
A generous amount of olive oil both in the dough and coating the pan essentially 'fries' the bottom and sides of the crust as it bakes, creating a beautifully golden, crispy edge.
