This fire-oven Hawaiian Pizza is a delightful combination of sweet pineapple and Canadian bacon on a fluffy, fermented crust baked to perfection in a wood-fired oven. The unique flavor of this pizza comes from the long fermentation of the pizza dough, resulting in a crust that's crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Measure water in a large bowl with a kitchen scale
While still using the kitchen scale, add salt. Stir until salt is dissolved
Add in half of the 00 flour, stir until combined
Stir in yeast
Add the rest of the flour and stir until combined
Pour the dough onto a heavy floured counter surface. I use another 1/2 cup of flour, the dough starts out very sticky.
Knead the dough for 15 minutes. The texture and elasticity of the dough with change as you are kneading.
Once fully kneaded use your kitchen scale to measure out 270 grams of dough. Roll the dough into a ball and place into a lightly greased dough proofing box. Repeat until all the dough is used and 6 balls and made.
Place dough proofing box in your oven with it OFF but the light on. Let sit in there for 2 hours. This creates a warm space for the dough to rest and rise.
Turn off the light and let it sit in the OFF oven for the remaining 6 hours.
While you prepare your pizza, start your fire pizza oven. It will need to preheat for about 30 minutes to get to a high enough temperature.
After resting, take the box out of the oven and lightly flour your counter. Spread & stretch the dough out into a circle.
Sauce
In a bowl combine tomatoes and seasoning. Stir.
Assemble
In a bowl, squeeze the mozzarella ball into little bits
Hand shred fresh basil
Once dough is stretched, spread sauce on top. Sprinkle cheese chunks over sauce, place pineapple tidbits & Canadian bacon on top, then sprinkle parmesan over it all
Bake for about 2 minutes, rotating the pizza about 45 degrees every 30 seconds for a even cook.
