Why our dough takes 48 hours
Our dough is flour, water, salt and a sourdough starter. The two days are what make it taste of something: a long, cold rise lets the starter work through the flour, and the crust ends up light, blistered and slightly tangy.
The timetable
| Day | What happens |
|---|---|
| Monday | Mix, rest, divide into balls |
| Tuesday | Cold rise in the fridge |
| Wednesday on | Stretched to order and baked in 90 seconds |
That is also why Monday is our day off: it is dough day. Try it on the Margherita.
