Enjoy a delightful morning making homemade pizza with Diana, who will guide you through each step of the process while sharing her extensive knowledge about the importance of flour in creating the perfect pizza dough. As you roll up your sleeves and prepare to dive into the art of pizza-making, Diana will explain the various types of flour used by traditional "pizzaioli" in Italy, emphasizing how each type contributes to the texture and flavor of the final product.She will introduce you to "00" flour, a finely milled Italian flour that is renowned for its high protein content and low ash, making it ideal for achieving that sought-after chewy crust. Diana will demonstrate how the quality of flour affects gluten development, which is crucial for the dough's elasticity and ability to rise. As you mix and knead the dough together, she will share tips on how to achieve the perfect consistency, ensuring that your dough is neither too sticky nor too dry.
Throughout the morning, you will learn about the historical significance of pizza in Italian culture and how the craft of pizza-making has been passed down through generations. Diana will regale you with stories of her own experiences in Italy, where she observed skilled pizzaioli at work, tossing the dough high in the air and expertly layering on fresh ingredients. You will discover the importance of using high-quality, locally sourced ingredients, from the tomatoes to the mozzarella, and how these choices reflect the pride and passion that Italians have for their cuisine.
As the aroma of baking pizza fills the air, you will not only enjoy the fruits of your labor but also gain a deeper appreciation for the artistry involved in making authentic Italian pizza. By the end of your session with Diana, you will leave not only with a delicious homemade pizza to savor but also with a wealth of knowledge about the essential role of flour and the traditions of the pizzaioli in Italy.
