I spend many (enjoyable) hours on RUclips learning how to make dough, bread, pizza. And what I really like is that the different videos are not only different -- they sometimes contradict each other when it comes to subtleties of the preferred techniques and tricks. And what this means is that the end products differ. This is so fascinating, because they all come out good and often great. I gained so much from this video. I always seem to learn something new. The presenter here shaped the dough balls in a way that seemed to be poetry in motion, a finger ballet. Overall, excellent in all aspects, and one more video to add to my "library" and to review at some point. Thank you to Bryan Ford who does a top notch job speaking and illustrating and putting life into the process, to the studio team, and to everyone at Ooni for a helpful video.
Thank you so much for your great feedback! All pizza is great and we love the little tweaks that each chef makes when they bake. The most important thing is that you have an awesome oven to cook in, just like Ooni ;)
I totally agree with Softwine Market about Bryan & the team's presentation. I enjoyed every second of it. His love of what he does is beautifully portrayed through his unrushed, soothing voice, & all the remarkable detail.

Best wishes to you & those you love.
I loved the didactic and the way he shows every single important aspect of the process (specially on how to know when your dough has done with kneading). Thank you very much!
Hey Leonardo! Thank you so much for your comment :) I'm glad you found the video helpful - here at HQ we're all a bit obsessed with sourdough at the moment so I hope you love it as much as we do! >GR
I just got a Ooni Fyra, and even though an experienced baker I only came for a sourdough pizza recipe, I'm leaving with so much more, thank you so much Brian, and Ooni!
This was exactly what I was looking for. We love our Ooni and I wanted to use fresh milled flour and sourdough for the crust. Thank you for this great informative video.
Sehr tolle Idee mit dem kleinen Anteil Vollkornmehl. Das werde ich mal versuchen. Vielen Dank für die tolle Präsentation mit angenehmem Ton und sympathischem Moderator. Ich lasse ein Abbo da
Excellent video on using sourdough! It's delivered at a good pace, and easy to follow. The whole wheat and 24 hour bulk fermentation really make this crust delicious.
Best video I have seen step by step, thank you. I use the same recipie but have never added whole grain flour into the mix. Will try yours next with a 72 hour fermentation. Awesome looking pizza and great instructor! Gratzi.
I love watching this video, everything is clear and well explained and I have tired it myself and it tasted amazing. Im waiting for delivery of my Ooni Koda 16 so the few months long delivery time will make me very impatient.
2 days after the fridge is the sweet spot i think. 1 minimum 2 most. I have done 3 thats too much. The texture changes more than flavor to me. Crust is a personal preference everybody is different.
@ thank you. I love my teenage boys. Just grab dough from the the freezer and make the pizzas on the barbecue when they feel like it. They have even begun to make their own dough at times… skills for life!✌🏼
We like to freeze it after the first rise and the dough has been balled up! 😉 We have more tips on this here: support.ooni.com/en_us/how-should-i-freeze-and-defrost-my-pizza-dough-SJJF9ROfj - enjoy! 🍕🔥
Thank you Bryan for a thorough explanation. Could I possibly make a double batch and freeze some of the dough or keep it in the fridge to use another day?
Thanks! Great video! Can you please advise if it is possible to cook this pizza in a cast iron skillet instead? And if so, should I cook it on the stove top first or straight into the oven?
Thanks for the clear explanation! I'm going to take this process and do ALL whole grain sourdough pizza crust. Wish me luck. It make take longer to ferment is my guess...got any advice?
Share with us how it goes! Whole wheat flour will ferment faster than a white flour. Whole wheat will have more nutrients for the yeast to snack on! We recommend keeping an eye on it to prevent an over proof. We hope this helps 💛
High hydration dough often works great at super high temperatures! Find a balance which works best for you and your sourdough. Hydration percentages which work well in an Ooni can vary between 60-70% and higher, depending on how you like your pizza!
Very well done. I feel like I'm truly starting from scratch. I'm a good cook, but have very limited experience as a baker. But we all have to start somewhere. My family purchased a n Ooni oven. So, I'm looking forward to using it.
Great video. Very clearly put together and most of what he did and said was correct. However please do t use all that flour during the mixing process and shaping, you don’t need it and this obviously changes the recipe as that amount can change depending on the person doing it. Just use a bakery scraper.
Hey there! We're happy to know that the video helped you out :) As for your question - all of our ovens are certified for outdoor use only. We apologise if this isn't the most welcome news, but this is purely for safety reasons!
Great video. I wonder if there is a difference in doing a longer bulk ferment (ie 24 hrs) in the fridge then a shorter prove with the dough balls at room temperature (ie 3 hrs). I normally do it this way round with regular pizza dough, so assume it would work with sourdough pizza dough too. The main reason is - I find it easy to find space in the fridge for the bulk ferment, than I do to find space for the dough balls in a proving tray.
Hey Ben! There is no right or wrong way, both should give similar results. We recommend doing what works best for you. Although cold-proofing for a longer bulk ferment arguably helps the dough to develop a complex structure within the crusts!
If you're using a stand mixer, you will want to knead your dough on its lowest setting for 10-15 minutes, or until you've developed a strong gluten structure. We love using a tall mason jar like this one for our levain mix: amzn.to/3MVAKXg You can expect your mix to double in size in about four hours (varies depending on temperature of kitchen/cooking setting). 🍕
Really great video. Very helpful. I found my dough was really sticky. I had to add more flour whilst kneading. I didn’t use any brown flour in the recipe. Would this be the issue?
Wholewheat flour absorbs more water, which does make dough less sticky. If using only 00 flour you find dough too sticky, it's ok to add more flour while kneading.
Nice video. Suggestion....to avoid a blow up with the sourdough levin, please undo the jar lid and band so the levin can rise and not be under pressure to blow the lid off the jar.
Hiya. Is it ok to keep the dough for cold fermentation in the fridge for longer than 24h like some people recommending with classic pizza dough? Thank you for this amazing video!
You certainly can! Experiment to see what results you like the best with your own sourdough 🍕 A longer prove might be a little more challenging to work with, but some find even better flavour and more air in the crust - see how it goes!
I appreciate you saying that it’s ok to use our mixers! I have bad wrists. And that it shouldn’t be so sticky’s. How long would you say to knead by mixer? Great info! Thank you!
Hello Jacqueline 🍕 you're welcome ❤️ To answer your question, you can knead the dough using a stand mixer - mix the dough on low speed for 10-15 minutes, then at a higher speed for 5-10 minutes. For more info, read the full recipe here: ooni.com/blogs/recipes/sourdough-pizza-dough . Hope this helps 🤩🍕
Great tutorial there! Really well explained, great job! Was just wondering, could you freeze half of the dough ball at shaping step for later on? Once frozen are they still giving great results? Thank you very much :)
It is totally fine to prep your dough balls and then pop them in the freezer for a later date! 🙌 Always make sure you take them out in time - it is super important to use room temperature dough balls when prepping the perfect pizza! 😊 >JM
Comment from an amateur here - due to the work involved, I make 10 dough balls at a time, and usually bake off 2-3 right away, then individually bag the remainders and freeze. When needed, I let them thaw in the refrigerator, then take them out and let them puff a bit at room temp before forming. The result is about 90% the quality of doing it straightaway.

Hello Bryan I just bought an ooni pro because of you great job as always. I was wondering what do you think of the window Payne test with pizza dough my dough is not quite passing it
Ill scale it back to 150g of starter but please let me know if you think I should use any more or less if I am wrong. Just realised who you were and wanted to tell you I love your products at ooni. I purchased the pro and absolutely love it! From Melbourne australia

It is quite common for your levain mixture to be a little thick initially. However, as your levain matures and is incorporated into your final mixture, you should have an easier time working with your sourdough. If this isn't the case, we'd suggest checking out our Ooni Community pages, which is where our Community Members share their personal experiences, favourite recipes, and much more! If this interests you, please find our Community pages below: Ooni Community Facebook page: facebook.com/groups/oonicommunity Ooni Community page: community.ooni.com/feed
Hello Nixon 🍕 Please check the full recipe here ooni.com/blogs/recipes/sourdough-pizza-dough & this super useful sourdough guide ooni.com/blogs/ooni-insights/the-ultimate-sourdough-guide Hope this helps 🍕👨🍳❤️
Great question! For best results, we recommend following the process in our recipe: ooni.com/blogs/recipes/sourdough-pizza-dough 😉. If the levain is fed and left out for too long, then it will eventually go beyond its peak and will start to collapse and break down, and it won’t be as an active starter. If it goes beyond this point, you’ll need to re-feed and repeat to get it nice and active again. You could put it in the fridge which will slow down its activity but it will still continue to ferment, just slowly. We hope this helps!
Ok this guy knows his stuff! 👍🏻 But how do you get your mature starter??? I am willing to give that method a try although I seem to get pretty much identical results with my 48-hour direct dough... (Proportions 1750/1000/45/3 - 3 hour bulk ferment at RT, then ball, then refrigerate) Great video overall. 3 tiny things about the video though : - A neapolitan pizza isn’t that small! You need to do a final stretch on the peel. If I had a Ooni Pro instead of my 2S, I’d make massive ones. - By the way this pizza is too crunchy to be called neapolitan, the tip needs to slouch a little. - You might wanna check Vito Iacopelli’s method for balling and stretching : his channel is a goldmine!
@@Oonihq Yes it does help, thanks. Just wanting to know the right quantities of dough for my 12" oven that arrived yesterday! Haven't been through all the info yet, but hoping to use it at the weekend. :)
If you are short for time, is the 24 hour cold fermentation necessary? Can you substitute for say, 12 hours in the fridge and a extended time at room temp before the oven? Thanks
Thomas Cullinane Hey Thomas, I usually do a 24 hour warm proof for my sourdough but it could be sped up by increasing the amount of started used and proofing in a warmer space.
Fantastic video guys. I have a question. I would like to use sourdough for my pizza business but not sure how to scale up the amounts. Are there bakers percentages for a sourdough pizza recipe? Thanks
Hey Barny! Thanks for checking out our video 🍕🔥 Our awesome sourdough recipe makes four 14" pizzas. Simply scale this recipe up to suit your restaurant needs 😉. You can find the full recipe here: uk.ooni.com/blogs/recipes/sourdough-pizza-dough?_pos=2&_sid=8b128eb5f&_ss=r Happy ooni-ing! >GR
Great vid and explanation 👍 In my view, I think you used a bit much extra flour when kneading. Enough to great alter the hydration level. Was that taken into account with the initial flour amounts? I think if you want to use so much flour, you should take the total flour you'll use for the dough, take 50 gram off and set that aside, and let that work itself in while kneading to avoid greatly reducing hydration level and for consistency
This guy assumed you didn't know everything and thus gave you so much help information. Good job Sir.
I was just about to say he gave us so much information! I love it!
He has a cookbook coming out this week too. Look for it on Amazon! Artisan Bryan New World Sourdough.

You could put it in the fridge which will slow down its activity but it will still continue to ferment, just slowly. We hope this helps!
Don’t add too much flour! A sticky dough is hard to work, use a bench scraper if you have to...the wetter the better...
Curious, if i did my math right...levain mix recipe has 250g total and you used 200g. What do you do with the remaining 50g?
Our mistake! You will want to add the total 250g levain to your final mix. 🙌
Great recipe and lesson but isn’t it hazardous using an Ooni oven or equivalent indoors? That’s what it says on their website.
Hey! This is filmed in our HQ warehouse which has industrial ventilation. Ooni Pizza Ovens certified for outdoor use only.
Ok this guy knows his stuff! 👍🏻
But how do you get your mature starter???
I am willing to give that method a try although I seem to get pretty much identical results with my 48-hour direct dough... (Proportions 1750/1000/45/3 - 3 hour bulk ferment at RT, then ball, then refrigerate)
Great video overall.
3 tiny things about the video though :
- A neapolitan pizza isn’t that small! You need to do a final stretch on the peel. If I had a Ooni Pro instead of my 2S, I’d make massive ones.
- By the way this pizza is too crunchy to be called neapolitan, the tip needs to slouch a little.
- You might wanna check Vito Iacopelli’s method for balling and stretching : his channel is a goldmine!
fredichon love Vito’s channel! He’s a guru :)
@The Clintidote where do you get your Ischia culture? I've been searching for some
Perfect pizza. How old was that levain?
Hello 🍕Here you can find all you need to know about sourdough pizza ooni.com/blogs/recipes/sourdough-pizza-dough ❤️🍕
F.
This was a really informative and helpful video. One thing I didn't pick up was how large were the pizzas? Were they 12"?
Yes, these pizzas were 12" but our Ooni Pro oven can bake up to 16" pizzas! Hope this helps. ☺️
@@Oonihq Yes it does help, thanks. Just wanting to know the right quantities of dough for my 12" oven that arrived yesterday! Haven't been through all the info yet, but hoping to use it at the weekend. :)
Enjoy! Let us know how you get on. Welcome to the Ooni Community! 🍕
after I make the balls can I put them in the freezer?
Absolutely! We'd recommend freezing in either a ziplock bag, or an airtight container :)
Do I need to cold prove the dough, or could I do it at room temperature for a shorter period?
You don't need to cold prove! Download our App for full instructions and versatility for your dough :)
This was awesome, thanks! Would love the oven too, but can’t afford it.... 😢😢😢
Great teaching (and I'm a teacher!)
If you are short for time, is the 24 hour cold fermentation necessary? Can you substitute for say, 12 hours in the fridge and a extended time at room temp before the oven? Thanks
Thomas Cullinane Hey Thomas, I usually do a 24 hour warm proof for my sourdough but it could be sped up by increasing the amount of started used and proofing in a warmer space.
Awesome job, I have a question ¿ what temperature do you bake the pizza ?
Thanks
Anywhere from 400˚C (752˚F) and upwards is great for Neapolitan pizza and that's why you need an Ooni oven :)
Fantastic video guys. I have a question. I would like to use sourdough for my pizza business but not sure how to scale up the amounts. Are there bakers percentages for a sourdough pizza recipe? Thanks
Hey Barny!
Thanks for checking out our video 🍕🔥 Our awesome sourdough recipe makes four 14" pizzas. Simply scale this recipe up to suit your restaurant needs 😉. You can find the full recipe here:

Happy ooni-ing! >GR
Great vid and explanation 👍
In my view, I think you used a bit much extra flour when kneading. Enough to great alter the hydration level. Was that taken into account with the initial flour amounts?
I think if you want to use so much flour, you should take the total flour you'll use for the dough, take 50 gram off and set that aside, and let that work itself in while kneading to avoid greatly reducing hydration level and for consistency
Thanks for your feedback and suggestion 🍕👨🍳❤️
How long should you bake in a home oven?
