In a spiral mixer, combine flour, salt, and yeast. Add cold water gradually and mix at slow speed for 3 minutes. Add olive oil and continue mixing at medium speed for 6–8 minutes until smooth and elastic. Dough temperature should be between 24°C–26°C. Transfer to a floured surface, rest for 20 minutes covered. Divide into 200 g portions and round. Rest again for 10 minutes.
Italian Sugo Preparation:
Combine Pizza Sugo Powder, water, and olive oil in a bowl. Whisk until smooth and homogeneous.
Assembly & Baking:
Roll out dough into 18–20 cm discs. Spread a thin layer of Pizza Sugo on one half, then layer vegetables & cheese. Fold to form a half-moon, sealing edges by crimping or pressing with a fork. Bake at 220°C to 230°C for 12–15 minutes until golden brown. Optionally, brush with extra virgin olive oil or garlic butter after baking. Serve hot with extra Pizza Sugo or infused olive oil.
