Instructions to make Whole Wheat Pizza:

1. Making whole wheat pizza dough: - take 1 cup water in a mixing bowl and lightly warm it. just warm and not hot. the temperature should be around 40 to 43 degrees celsius. - then add 1/4 tsp sugar and stir so that the sugar dissolves. - add 1.5 tsp instant yeast.
2. Stir so that the yeast dissolves. if using dry active yeast, then add 2 tsp of it. stir and keep covered for 10 to 15 minutes till the mixture has frothed and bubbled up. here since we have used instant yeast, we don't need to proof the soluti
3. Add 1 cup whole wheat flour, 2 tbsp olive oil and 1/4 tsp salt. for dry active yeast, add the flour, olive oil and salt after the yeast solution has bubbled. mix everything with a spoon or spatula. - then add 1 cup of flour. again mix. - lastly add remaining 1 cup flour and continue to mix and then begin to knead.
4. Here since we have used instant yeast, we don't need to proof the solution and proceed to the next step immediately after stirring the yeast.
5. I kneaded the dough for about 8 minutes. - now rub some olive oil all over the dough and keep it in the same pan. - cover with a kitchen towel and allow the pizza dough to leaven for an hour or two.
6. For ease of kneading, i divided the dough into two parts and kneaded both of them separately. - then later joined them together and kneaded again. - the dough has to be kneaded really well till it's soft and pliable. add more water if required while kneading.
7. Heat olive oil in a small pan. - then add the chopped garlic and saute for 10-12 seconds on a low flame. - add the tomato puree and saute for 4-5 mins on a low to medium flame. if using red wine, then you can add it once the tomatoes are cooked.
8. If you have added dry active yeast, then increase the time to 1:30 minutes to 2:30 hours, depending on the temperature conditions. - so when the dough is leavening, prep up the other ingredients like chopping veggies, grating cheese and preparing pizza sauce
9. Bake whole wheat pizza for 12 to 15 minutes till the cheese had melted or has golden specks. for a crisp crust, you can also bake for a longer time. since oven temperature vary, do keep a check while baking the pizza. - for baking pizza in convection mode, use the same temperature that you preheated your oven at - 200 or 220 degrees celsius.
10. Preparing pizza sauce: - rinse and then chop the tomatoes. - puree the tomatoes in a blender or with a hand blender. keep a few bits and pieces of tomatoes in the puree. you can also blanch the tomatoes and then chop or crush them.
11. When the tomatoes are cooked, add the chopped basil, dry oregano, salt and pepper. - stir & simmer for 1-2 minutes on a low to medium flame. - check the seasonings add more salt or pepper if required. - once cooled, use the pizza sauce as a topping on pizzas or store in a bowl or in a small jar.
12. Baking whole wheat pizza: - keep the baking tray in the center rack of the preheated oven with both the top and bottom heating rods on.
13. Once golden and baked,slice and serve hot..☺👍
