Caputo Pizzeria Flour ’00’ (1kg)

Caputo Pizzeria flour, especially the Tipo “00” variety, plays an important role in Neapolitan pizza-making. You know that thin-crust, chewy goodness from Naples, Italy? Well, this flour is the secret sauce for achieving that authentic Neapolitan pizza taste.

Now, “Tipo ’00′” might sound fancy, but it simply means the flour is super fine, like extra-fine. It’s milled to perfection, giving you this powdery magic crucial for whipping up pizza dough that’s as smooth and stretchy as it gets – the key to the perfect Neapolitan texture.

Furthermore, Caputo Pizzeria flour packs some serious protein. And not just any protein – the kind that teams up with water to create gluten. Why does that matter? Because gluten is the backbone of your dough. It’s what makes it hold up and get all stretchy. In Neapolitan pizza land, that stretchiness is essential to handle the crazy heat of a pizza oven.

Speaking of heat, Neapolitan pizzas come to life in wood-fired ovens cranking up to a crazy 800 degrees Fahrenheit (427 degrees Celsius). The high protein in Caputo Pizzeria flour is the superhero here. It gives your dough the strength and structure to rise like a champ in the blazing oven. The result? A crust that’s tender on the inside and just a tad crispy on the outside.

But wait, there’s more. Caputo Pizzeria flour is the MVP for slow-rise pizza dough. Picture this: a slow fermentation process that turns your dough into a flavour bomb. It’s like the yeast is throwing a party, developing all these complex flavours and textures. The end game? A Neapolitan pizza with layers of taste that make your taste buds do a happy dance.  We have a range of groceries available, as well as a luxury gift box which includes this flour.
