- 1 1/2 ounces fresh yeast
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 pounds all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup cold water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Semolina, for sprinkling peel
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 large yellow onions, sliced into half moons
- 1 cup feta, crumbled
- 1 tablespoon thyme, chopped
- Olive oil, for brushing the top of the dough
Method
- Warm the milk to 110 degrees F and pour into a mixing bowl.
- Dissolve the yeast in the milk in a mixing bowl.
- Add in the flour and the sugar and mix.
- Let sit until the mixture (sponge) begins to bubble, about 6 to 8 minutes.
- Add in the flour, salt, cold water, and olive oil to the sponge mixture.
- Blend until a dough is formed.
- When mixed well, the dough will begin to pull away from the bowl.
- Knead lightly until a large ball is formed.
- Cover with a towel and let sit.
- When the dough has risen about 30 to 45 minutes, punch down, and begin to roll into 6-ounce pieces for folded pizzas and 4-ounce pieces for open flat bread.
- Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.
- In a large saute pan, melt the butter and brown lightly on medium high heat.
- Add in the onions, turn the heat to medium and slowly caramelize the onions.
- When brown, set aside to cool.
- Roll out a 6-ounce piece of dough into a long rectangular shape.
- Place on a large pizza peel or baking sheet that has been sprinkled with semolina.
- Brush the dough with olive oil and poke it several times with a fork to keep it from bubbling up.
- Spread the caramelized onions evenly over the dough and sprinkle with the feta and thyme.
- Place the pizza in the oven and turn heat down to 400 degrees and bake for 25 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
- Cut into 8 pieces and serve warm.
