  1. 1

    Pour the warm water into the bread machine pan, sprinkle in the salt, and add the flour so it sits on top of the water. Make a well in the top of the flour and spoon the yeast into the well. Let it sit for 20 minutes to moisten the flour. Set the bread machine to knead and knead the dough for about 10 minutes. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead in 1/4 cup more flour, or as needed, adding it about 2 tablespoons at a time, to make a wet, sticky, yet elastic dough. The dough should be as soft as a baby's bottom. Shape the dough into a round.

  2. 2

    Lightly oil the inside of a large bowl with olive oil and place the round of dough in the bowl. Turn the dough over a couple of times so it picks up a thin coating of oil. Cover with a cloth and refrigerate for 10 hours or overnight.

  3. 3

    The next day, let the dough come to room temperature before rolling it out on a floured surface and adding toppings as desired. Roll the dough thin with a thicker edge before adding toppings.

  4. 4

    Place a pizza stone in the oven, dust it with a little flour, and preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Bake the pizza on the stone in the preheated oven until the bottom of the crust is browned, 6 to 8 minutes.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products

easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.

The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.

Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.

For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
