In a large mixing bowl, combine the Tipo 00 flour and salt.
In a separate bowl, dissolve the instant yeast in the water. Ensure the water is lukewarm (approximately 35°C).
Gradually pour the yeast mixture into the flour, stirring with a wooden spoon or your hands to form a rough dough.
Add the olive oil and continue kneading until all the ingredients are well combined.
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap. Let it rest at room temperature for approximately 2 hours, or until it doubles in size.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and divide it into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a smooth ball.
Cover the dough balls with a damp cloth and let them rest for an additional hour.
Preheat your wood-fired oven to approximately 450-500°C (850-930°F).
On a floured surface, stretch each dough ball into a thin, round pizza base using your hands or a rolling pin. Avoid overworking the dough to maintain its airiness.
Transfer the pizza base onto a floured pizza peel, add your desired toppings, and carefully slide the pizza onto the oven floor.
Bake for 60-90 seconds, rotating as needed to ensure even cooking. When the crust is golden and bubbly, your pizza is ready.
Repeat with the remaining dough and enjoy your wood-fired pizzas fresh from the oven.
