      For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

    2. DOUGH
  2. Weight into the bowl the water and yeast.

    Set to 2mins/37deg/speed 1.

    Add the flour, salt and poolish.

    Knead for 6 minutes.

    Flour your bench or baking mat, Dividi the dough into 4 equal portions and cover the dough with flour and then with a tea towel. Let the dough rise until doubled in size.

    Rising time will depend on the ambient temperature... just needs to double in size.

    Once doubled in size, you're ready to shape your pizza bases but DON'T use a rolling pin. Use your fingers!! Using a rolling pin wiill ruin those beautiful bubbles from the proving.

    Preheat your oven to 260 degrees.

    Use semolina on the bottom of your pizza base so its non stick.

    Top with your favourite toppings.

    Pop in oven once its reached 260 degrees.

    Enjoy!

    I know this is a silly question but do I add a teaspoon of poolish from earlier or do I add 280 grams from earlier poolish ?
