Easy pizza dough “no need to knead” – light & yummy

Easy pizza dough “no need to knead”

In my Italian blog I call this easy pizza dough impasto a mani pulite meaning “clean hands dough”. This is not because it has anything to do with the famous anti Mafia operation but because for making this dough there’s no need to get your hands dirty. This dough needs little work, just the time to mix all the ingredients: it takes longer to weight the ingredients and cleaning the tools afterwards than preparing it! My sister-in-law taught me how to make the dough in this way: until then I was accustomed to my mother’s method which involved a lot of kneading and banging the dough on the kitchen surface making a lot of noise! But no, with the light & yummy easy pizza dough there’s “no need to knead”!

Of course I am under no pretension that this recipe is the best pizza dough ever or the original one on earth. I only know that it works for me: with this dough I can to prepare a full oven tray of pizza of which I can eat a third using the same Propoints I would use when I eat a full meal. And a portion like this fills me up! Lots of people may think that eating pizza while on a diet is not possible, but try to reconsider it. Make a pizza dough like this one, choose a light topping filled with vegetables and eating pizza while on a diet is possible. You can see that I could not live without pizza: my favourite number one food!
