Pizzeria Restaurant Pizza Dough Recipe
published by Lauren Axelrod on Jul 27, 2008
This is of course a bulk recipe. I came up with this recipe for a restaurant when I was around 18. It’s the closest recipe to heaven that you’ll get. It’s true New York Style dough with a hint of sweetness. It can be medium thickness to thin, depending on how you portion it.
Ingredients:
- 50 lbs of Flour (All trumps)
- 12 Oz Salt
- 2 ½ Quart Dark Amber Honey
- 2 ½ Quart Vegetable Oil
- 3 Quart Hot Water
- 8 Quart Cold Water
- 6 Oz yeast
Method:
- Bloom yeast in 3 quarts hot water, honey & oil.
- Add 8 quarts of cold water
- Add Flour
- Mix for 10 minutes on low speed
- Portion and put in walk in to chill and stop fermentation.
During the summer put directly into the walk-in and during the winter leave out about 25 minutes to let rise.

I am telling you, if you love pizza..this recipe will melt in your mouth.
The first time my new employees tried it they said it made their knees weak. How’s that for a reaction?
