Master the Art of Authentic Neapolitan Pizza in 60 Seconds ๐Ÿ•๐ŸŽฅ

Ever dreamt of bringing the taste of Italy into your own kitchen? Here's your chance.

Neapolitan pizza isn't just foodโ€”itโ€™s a tradition. A masterpiece crafted from the simplest ingredients, elevated by technique honed over centuries. And the best part? You donโ€™t need a wood-fired oven in Naples to achieve perfection. In just 60 seconds, this engaging tutorial will take you through the step-by-step secrets to mastering this Italian classic.

Start with the essentials: top-grade tipo 00 flour, water, salt, and a touch of yeast. Mix, knead, and let time work its magic, creating a dough that transforms from basic to exceptional with patient resting.

โœจ The magic lies in simplicity and skill.

Watch as we guide you through stretching the doughโ€”not rollingโ€”so it achieves that perfect balance: a delicate center and a puffed edge ready to develop those signature leopard spots in the oven. Add the holy trinity of a classic Margherita: vibrant San Marzano tomato sauce, creamy fresh mozzarella, and fragrant basil. Quality over quantity is the Neapolitan way.

๐Ÿ”ฅ The final touch? High heat. Whether in a traditional wood-fired oven or cranked-up home oven, this pizza needs just 60-90 seconds to bake to perfection. The result: a crispy base, airy crust, and perfectly balanced flavors thatโ€™ll transport you back to the heart of Naples.

Ready to dive into the art of pizza-making? This recipe isn't just about foodโ€”it's about celebrating tradition, technique, and the joy of creating something extraordinary from simplicity.

A clean wooden countertop holds flour, water, salt, and yeast. Hands measure and sift flour into a bowl, add salt, and prepare water mixed with yeast.
Start with tipo zero-zero flour, water, salt, and just a touch of yeast. Mix until incorporated, then knead until smooth and elastic.
