## Instructions
Based on this excellent video from Vito Iacopelli: [HOW TO MAKE NEXT LEVEL PIZZA DOUGH | DOUBLE FERMENTED + POOLISH](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1O3uHPCOLA)
### 1. Make the poolish — 15 minutes
Combine the poolish flour, poolish water, honey and yeast to create the poolish. See video: [Make the poolish](https://youtu.be/u7Hd6ZzKgBM?t=97)
1. **Flour + Yeast** — Combine the flour and yeast and mix.
2. **The rest** — Add the honey to the water in your mixing bowl, add in the flour/yeast mix and thoroughly combine until it's a homogeneous (very sticky) dough.
### 2. Poolish cold rise — ~20 hours (16-24 hours)
Let the poolish cold rise in the fridge.
### 3. Make the dough — 30 minutes
Combine the rest of the ingredients to turn the poolish into a dough. See video: [Make the dough](https://youtu.be/u7Hd6ZzKgBM?t=199)
1. **Poolish + water** — Add the water to the poolish, thoroughly mixing so that most of the poolish is dissolved into the water.
2. **Salt+Oil** — Add the salt and oil to the poolish.
3. **Flour and Kneading** — Add the flour to the poolish. If you don't have a dough mixer, you can use a spoon to mix everything together at first, then switch to your hands. This is a VERY sticky dough, don't be discouraged, keep going for 10-15 minutes.
4. **Prepare for gluten development** — Cover the dough or place it in a bowl you can cover to let it rest for a short time.
### 4. Dough cold rise — ~20 hours (16-24 hours)
Let the dough cold rise in the fridge.
### 5. Room temperature rise — ~4 hours (3-6 hours)
Split the dough into smaller balls and place them into a covered/sealed container(s).
1. **Make the dough balls** — We want the dough balls to have a smooth surface, trapping the air in the dough and we put them in a container or box so they're not exposed to the air. Check these videos for some tips: [How To Make Perfect Pizza Dough Balls](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZxNbL5XB7w) and [How to Shape Dough Balls](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5t5MEZt6LM)
### 6. Pizza Time!
Time to make your poolish pizza!
