Here is our Pizza Dough Recipe that works! We use this dough recipe with great success.

(Makes 6ish 25cm pizzas) Roll or hand stretch dough out to approximately 3mm thick.  We hand stretch but it is up to you as you may want to just use a roller.  Hand stretched dough has more of a traditional look and texture and is preferred by many. Give it a go!

4  cups high-grade flour (many options and many types so experiment) Tipo 00 Flour is Italy’s favourite.  00 flour when stretched stays stretched and doesn’t spring back like standard flour.

2  teaspoon dry yeast ( bread makers yeast a MUST) try different brands as they give different results. ALWAYS CHECK EXPIRY

1 or 2  teaspoon salt. The more salt the stronger the flour.

1 & ⅔  or 2 cups warm water. You can adjust this by teaspoon amounts to suit your flour brand and type.

2 tablespoon good quality olive oil

Pizza Dough Recipe 1Pizza-Sauce

Method

1. Pour warm water into a bowl

2. Add yeast and allow to sit in a warm place for 10 minutes

3. Add flour, oil and combine until evenly mixed (add salt as late as possible as it effects the yeast over time)

4. Kneed the dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth. Or a bread maker on dough only. Make sure dough is still a little sticky so dry hands with flour only works.

5. Create dough balls approx 200- 250 grams in size. Neatly form the balls by folding and place separately with space between them to expand on or in a container which must be covered. Make sure to cover dough balls. We use a large click-clack container.

6. Leave in a dry place until raised. Hours or even days. You can also oil the dough balls to stop it creating a skin if no container used. The dough needs time to rise and create air bubbles within itself. Experiment with timing at this stage. The dough will raise when at room temp.

7. Either hand stretch or roll the dough. There are several techniques for hand stretching so have a look online and find one that works for you. Tipo 00 flour is much easier to hand stretch then normal standard flour.

8. Flour your pizza board before placing stretched dough onto it and adding toppings.  The pizza will then slide straight off your board and into your Authentic Oven.  Oven temp should be around 350 Degree C on the hearth. Use infrared to check temp of hearth.

 

Pizza Dough Recipe 2

Dough made in the same day can be frozen and used at a later stage.

To make this pizza dough recipe in the bread maker simply add ingredients, set machine to dough setting and wait until dough has risen. Adjusting mixture to suit you is recommended but always have this recipe as a back up.

 

Good luck! Have fun

Hi Gareth,

I just wanted to thank you for your help in installing our new pizza oven today. I appreciate that it was a difficult install as we weren't able to use the hiab as we couldn't get the truck close to the plinth and with the step down barbeque area, a trolley was the only option left to us. Your guidance throughout was very professional and you went above and beyond in helping us complete our dream. Gail and I thank you very much for this.

Graham and Gail Bullock.

To the guys and gal at Authentic Oven, thanks for our beautiful new outdoor oven. We love it! We replaced the homemade oven for one of yours because our homemade oven just didn't cut the mustard. What a difference! Your oven has exceeded our expectations and we have impressed family with some spectacular meals. Thanks

Hi Gareth
We have been using our new oven over the past two weeks and just wanted you to let you know we have thoroughly enjoyed the whole process from when we first contacted you to our first firing of our new Authentic Oven. The oven does everything it has been advertised to do and looks fantastic in our living area. Great professional help from yourself and your staff.
Looking forward to using the oven when our family are over next week as they are just as excited as we are.

Pete will contact you next week re the flame grill as we are quite keen on that too;)

Your sincerely
Jacqueline & Peter

Gareth,
From buying to shifting into place to firing up to asking for advice it has been an absolute pleasure to deal with you. Your passion for wood fired ovens shows in the ovens craftsmanship and your service. The oven and table is a work of art which totally compliments our outdoor setting. And so far, cooking pizzas, roast vegetables, bread and cinnamon scrolls has been a blast. looking forward to a brisket soon! Thanks for all of your advice along the way. Jim, Papamoa

“We are very proud of our Authentic Pizza Oven, we wanted to create an atmosphere on our deck where we could all have fun making food creations and keeping warm on those sunny winter days and long summer nights. Gareth has delivered the perfect piece of engineered mastery that could be installed into an existing wall perfecting the area. Lots of family fun and friendly conversations over some great food delights for years to come” Thanks Gareth.

Hello Gareth and Anna,

Thank you so much for the wonderful work on the oven, it looks perfect in the courtyard, we had a small delay with the courier but it all worked out in the end, is it possible to paint on the back of the oven and what would be the best paint? If you could get back to me on that would be great.

Thanks in advance,
Beth & Mark

Hi Gareth
Just wanted to say a big thanks for all your efforts with our project! Our staff and myself are happy with the final result and thanks for sticking it out. The result is fantastic with the quality and performance you promised.
The oven has been running now for three months solid and the punters returning for more. We just cracked 200 in one evening which is many more than our historic oven. See you in three months when you finally get a break:)

Hi guys, We just wanted to say a huge thank you for the awesome oven and also the installation. We really appreciated you taking the time to come over and see if our property was suitable.

Hi Authentic Oven-
We had our first dinner party last night and it was a huge success. It was so easy making pizza with the oven as everyone did their own thing, even the kids were having a go. Thank you so much for all your great ideas and the time you spent creating our perfect outdoor area. We love it!

Hi Gareth and Anna
Just wanted to thank you again for the amazing oven, we love it! We had friends over in the weekend and cooked a roast lamb and vegetables, it was so good and we had lots of fun watching it cook. They want to buy one now too! We will send you some photos for the website.
Kind Regards

“Hi Gareth, The pizza oven looks great and nice job on the final touches. The builder would like your details so you should hear from him soon also. We used it once before we went away and the whole trip all I could think about was getting home to cook something. Ill ring you in regards to smoking the fish the neighbour has just brought some over, I didn’t realize he brought one of your ovens while we were away. Do you sell the Manuka smoking disks he used? Chat soon mate and thanks once again”

“ I have to say a big thank you for making our Christmas so memorable! We are so glad we got rid of the old Barbeque and upgraded to an Authentic wood fired pizza oven. Your team at Authentic Oven has been so delightful to deal with and the whole experience has been a success. In a short period of time we have mastered pizza dough, roasted virtually everything and now Murray is smoking fish. We are looking forward to winter evenings huddled around the oven! Thanks so much guys, well done”.
