Assembling the Pie:
1. Remove your dough balls from the refrigerator and dust with rice flour or Caputo Gluten Free Flour. There is no need to bring to room temperature.
2. Carefully shape the dough by gently forming a ball with a gluten-free on a floured surface. Gently press the air from the center of the ball outward with the palm under your large knuckles. Use the other hand as a guide to form a taller ridge on the edges.
3. This will become the crust. Be careful as to not tear holes in the gluten-free pizza crust. If you do get a hole, simply pinch and repair. Most importantly, you need to maintain a slight ridge around the pie.
4. Gently rotate the pie while repeating step 2 until the desired diameter is reached.
5. Make sure the pie doesn’t stick to surface by adding some rice or gluten-free flour.
6. For a Margherita Pizza use tomato sauce, basil leaves, and fresh mozzarella, freshly grated Parmesan cheese and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil on top.
Baking your Gluten-Free Pizza Pie:
1. Start your fire and preheat your Wood Fired Oven making sure the oven floor pizza stone is uniformly hot. A good heat soaking of the oven floor is essential for creating the crispy crust associated with your Gluten Free Pizza.
2. It is recommended that the oven floor temperature be about 700 degrees for this particular flour and hydration. Care must be taken when handling the delicate pie. You may have to use a thin metal pizza peel to gently get the uncooked pie on the peel with short rapid strokes.
3. Cook and rotate, as you would do with a standard pizza. Keep in mind initially the pie is very fragile.
