New York-Style Pizza Dough

Combine the ingredients of bread flour, warm water, yeast, and salt in a bowl using an electric mixer with the dough hook attachment. Begin mixing on the lowest speed until the ingredients are well combined but still retain a moist consistency, approximately 2 minutes. Cover the bowl with a clean towel and allow it to rise in a warm environment until the dough has doubled in size, roughly 20 minutes.

Remove the towel and continue mixing with the electric mixer on low speed until the dough has come together, around 5 minutes. Gradually add the remaining 1 cup of flour to the dough, incorporating it a little at a time until you achieve a soft and sticky texture, approximately 1 to 2 minutes.

Increase the mixer speed to medium and mix until the dough separates from the sides of the bowl, roughly 8 minutes. Cover the bowl with a clean towel and allow it to rest, approximately 20 minutes.

In the meantime, apply an even layer of olive oil to a plastic container.

Transfer the dough onto a floured work surface. Dust your hands with flour and knead the dough until it reaches a soft yet still slightly damp interior. Shape the dough into a ball and place it in the prepared container. Refrigerate the dough for at least 1 day or up to 7 days.
