# Guide to Cooking:
01 -
Combine warm water, active dry yeast, and granulated sugar in a bowl. Stir to dissolve and let proof until frothy, about 5-10 minutes.
02 -
In a stand mixer bowl, combine flour and salt. With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the yeast mixture, then increase speed. Add olive oil if needed and mix until a smooth dough ball forms and pulls away from the bowl sides.
03 -
Transfer dough to a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, approximately 1 hour.
04 -
Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F).
05 -
Grease a baking sheet with olive oil. Shape the dough to desired size and place it on the baking sheet.
06 -
Spread pizza sauce evenly over the dough. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese and half of the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
07 -
Distribute cooked beef, sausage, and pepperoni evenly. Top with remaining mozzarella cheese and season with ground black pepper.
08 -
Bake in preheated oven for 15–20 minutes until crust is golden and cheese is melted and bubbly.
09 -
Remove from oven, slice, and serve warm.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Ensure yeast is fresh and water is at the correct temperature to achieve proper proofing.
