Pizza flour
With the right pizza flour, you can bake a crispy, airy pizza in your own oven at home, just like one from a real pizzeria. Explore all types and get started!
Why use special pizza flour?
Pizza flour is specially milled wheat flour with a fine texture and a high protein (gluten) content. This type of flour creates a smooth, elastic dough that rises well and transforms into a true Italian-style pizza during baking. Pizza flour can be used for making pizzas, focaccia and even ciabatta.
Choose the best 00 pizza flour
For an authentic Italian pizza, it all starts with the right 00 pizza flour. Choose from top brands known for their quality, such as Molino Grassi, Caputo and Molen de Hoop. These brands guarantee an extra fine milling, the perfect gluten balance and a dough that is easy to knead and rises beautifully.
What is the difference between pizza flour and pizza meal?
You may also come across pizza meal, but pizza flour is generally the preferred choice. The difference lies in the bran. Pizza meal contains bran and has a coarser texture. These types have a lower baking performance and are less suitable for use on their own in pizza dough. If you want a smooth dough and a crisp base, pizza flour is the better option.
Combining pizza flour with other products
A great pizza starts with the right flour, but it doesn’t end there. Combine your pizza flour with products from our extensive pizza range:
• For the dough and fermentation: add dried yeast, olive oil and optionally a little sugar or salt to your pizza flour. This combination creates a smooth, airy dough that rises well.
• For the sauce and flavour: finish with a pizza sauce, spice mix or dried oregano. You can also add garlic powder or chilli flakes for extra heat.
• For baking and serving: consider pizza peels, a sturdy pizza stone, practical proofing trays and a sharp pizza cutter. Everything you need to take your pizza safely from oven to plate.
This way, you have everything you need for a complete pizza experience in your own kitchen.
