We will talk about how pizza came to our kitchen next time.
Today there is a broader and more serious topic - cooking pizza dough with kefir. This type of test is a quick option.
Probably, italian pizza makers would be surprised at such a pizza - on kefir, or they would consider the dish not a pizza, or they would be outraged by such blasphemy at professional and culinary pride - an Italian open pie. They don't cook pizza dough with kefir - only with yeast!
This article will focus on the kefir pizza dough. But to make the best and most correct dough, it is not enough to rewrite the recipe and go to the kitchen. Each oven bakes the same, but the cakes are always different. If you understand some of the intricacies, then you will not need to look for a recipe, and not worry about what was put into the dough a lot and what was not enough.
“The dough must be able to feel and know how it breathes”, - said our grandmothers and were right.
So, about kefir and how it behaves in the kefir pizza dough.
Kefir Is a relatively new product. In any case, in the form in which it appeared relatively recently. A fresh, fermented milk product has undoubted benefits for participation in digestion, since it is, even artificially, enriched with lactic acid bacteria. But already at a temperature of 70 ° C, the indisputable bacteria that are present in kefir die.
If the baking temperature of the dough at the most gentle mode reaches two times higher than the most critical temperature for the life of lacto- and bifidobacteria, then what then is the use of kefir as a fermented milk ingredient for the dough?
It is absolutely possible to say that lacto- and bifidobacteria, changing their structure, take part in the fermentation of the dough, forming gas bubbles, which, when baked, under the influence of temperature, expand and make the dough more fluffy.
Dairy products - without exception, are the best natural habitat for this type of bacteria. Therefore, they are present in milk, sour cream, and curdled milk - in any dairy products. Their participation in fermentation is similar to the action of yeast - "work colleagues". In addition, you should not run after kefir, if there is sour cream or yogurt in the house - from these products the dough will rise no worse.
But there is a difference between these two groups of microorganisms. Lactic acid bacteria, unlike yeast will not start without an alkaline environment, and yeast, in order to revive them, needs carbohydrates contained in sugar, flour and other components of the dough.
Lactic fermentation stops when a certain concentration of lactic acid accumulates in the mass, and begins to play the role of a preservative. It is in the phase of growth and accumulation that lactic microorganisms make the dough loose, but after their colony grows to a critical point, the reverse of fermentation begins.
If you miss this moment when making pizza dough with kefir, then it will be possible to start its fermentation only with the help of alcohol-forming yeast. Otherwise, you won't have to count on a fluffy dough.
For baking, fermented milk products, as a way of fermentation in the dough, are beneficial in that they will not eat more sugar than they should, so the sweet dough will remain sweet. Alcohol-forming "comrades-in-arms" of lactic acid bacteria eat so much sugar that as a result the dough may even smell like acid and alcohol, create an unpleasant aftertaste in the finished baked goods.
But these two types of microorganisms, getting into the same environment, absolutely do not interfere with each other. Lactic acid bacteria "do not pay attention" to the alcohol secreted by yeast, do not "take away" sugar from them - the main food product. Yeast is also indifferent to the proximity of lactic acid bacteria.
But the presence of both those and other microorganisms helps the dough rise faster and better.
You should not count on the special splendor of the kefir pizza dough, without the addition of yeast. Many housewives have baked pancakes more than once and know this recipe by heart. Remember that pancake dough is runny. And therefore, it rises and bakes quickly, and the products from it are juicy and soft. From this it follows that flour should be added to the kefir dough very sparingly, unless, of course, the plans are not to bake a crispy cake.
Hence the conclusion: dough for pizza on kefir without using yeast should not be too steep... Add enough flour to it so that it is convenient to work with it - make a round cake out of it with your hands. An exception is if you are preparing puff pastry, with kefir, chopped.
About flour.
Never rush to pour all the flour indicated in the recipe into the dough. You need to add it in partsto make sure the dough is the right consistency. Flour has a different moisture content, which depends on the type of grain from which it is made and on the conditions of its storage. If the recipe says that you need one glass of flour, then in each case you may need more or less of it.
The consistency of the dough also depends on its gluten content. Therefore, to avoid annoying misunderstandings, use premium flour.
Products composition:
Eggs 3 pcs.
Kefir of any fat content 150 ml
Fine salt
Refined oil 50 ml
Soda, baking ¼ tsp
Flour, wheat 250 - 300 g
Dough preparation:
Beat the cooled eggs with a mixer, as for biscuit dough, in a large bowl. Beaten eggs will add extra punch to the kefir pizza dough. Pour in vegetable oil in a thin stream, without stopping intensive whisking. Turn off the mixer, pour in kefir, continuing to stir the dough with a whisk. Add salt, and then start sifting the flour directly into the dough, in small portions, constantly working with a whisk, but not so intensely, trying not to destroy the bubbles that have formed. The consistency of the dough should be loose and homogeneous, but not liquid, so that you can work with it with your hands - the dough, like for dumplings, is only very soft. Add baking soda at the very end of mixing. Roll the resulting dough into a ball, place in a bowl and wrap it tightly with foil to "rest". In the meantime, preheat the oven and you can start preparing the pizza toppings. Sprinkle flour on the surface, divide the dough into 2-3 portions, and roll them into a ball. You do not need to roll out the dough on the table. Liberally grease the molds, and knead the portions of the dough directly into them, by hand. Leaving the outside of the circle thicker. Bake the prepared dough immediately, as it cannot be stored.
This dough is yeast-free, without steam, and is also very quick to prepare. As already mentioned, yeast and lactic acid bacteria in such a dough will work simultaneously, without interfering with each other, and therefore the dough will come up very quickly. The main thing is that the kefir is warm enough - not from the refrigerator.
Ingredients:
Yeast, dry ½ tsp.
Kefir (any) 120 ml
Sugar (to start yeast) 5-7 g
Flour 200-240 g (including dust)
Dough preparation:
Put sugar, salt and yeast in warm kefir. Add no more than 1/3 of the total flour, stir the liquid with a whisk, and let it stand for a while until bubbles appear. Pour in the rest of the sifted flour and knead the dough. The finished dough should lag behind the dishes and hands. Then transfer it to a floured cutting surface and start forming a pizza circle.
By kneading the batter like pancakes, pizza can be cooked very quickly in a regular pan.
Ingredients:
50 ml of kefir
Butter, melted 30-40 g
Flour 140-150 g
Oil, refined (for frying)
Dough preparation method:
Beat the eggs until frothy and add salt to them. It is more convenient, of course, to use kitchen appliances, a blender or a stationary mixer. Beating does not need to be stopped, but only to slow down and continue adding melted or softened butter, then kefir and sifted flour. Finally, add the soda, stir the finished dough, but with a spatula or spoon, and soak the dough to make the soda work, and start baking the cakes in a preheated pan. It is necessary, after heating the pan and the oil in it well, switch the stove so that the medium heat is kept during baking, pour the dough into the preheated pan, distribute it over the entire surface, no more than 1 cm thick, and cover it with a lid so that the dough is baked at the bottom, and on top a little steam brewed. After that, you can spread the sauce and pizza filling on the dough and continue baking in a sealed container until the top layer of cheese melts.
Ingredient List:
indicated in recipe 2. But the amount of yeast and sugar must be doubled.
Dough preparation:
Prepare the dough in advance, preferably at night, wrap the dishes tightly with cling film (no air should enter the prepared dough), and place the container with the dough in a cool place: if the freezing chamber is in the lower part of the refrigerator, then put the dough on the uppermost shelf ... So the dough can stand up to 12 hours, without the risk of deterioration. When you are going to cook pizza, heat the dough at 20-25 ° C for an hour, and knead the dough as usual.
If you prefer pizza on a thin, crispy, flaky basis, then this recipe is what you need.
In fact, this is a puff pastry, like for the Napoleon cake, and the consistency of the pizza dough will be the same. The difference lies in the filling. Replace kefir with sour cream or yogurt, if desired. If you prefer a real, creamy taste, use butter with at least 72.5% fat.
Ingredients:
Margarine, creamy (premium) 75-100 g
Kefir 50 - 70 ml
Soda or ammonium 3-4 g
Flour 200-300 g
Dough preparation method:
Pour the sifted flour in a heap on a cutting board and start chopping the prepared, cold margarine into cubes right in the flour, until you get fine flour and fat crumbs. Collect it with a slide, make a depression inside, salt, add soda and pour in cold kefir. The dough is fatty, so you need to use cold products to prepare it, and work with it very quickly. After the kefir is mixed and the dough is glued into a homogeneous, plastic mass, divide it into portions, roll each piece into a ball and put it in the cold. Such a dough can be prepared for future use and the portions can be stored separately in the freezer, taking them out as needed.
Each portion is rolled into a circle on a floured surface and baked immediately with the sauce and filling.
Ingredient List:
Flour 300-350 g
Ammonium 5-7 g
Kefir (1%) 150 ml
Dough preparation method:
Sift wheat flour and add salt and ammonium to it. Pour kefir into a large bowl (it should be warmed to room temperature), beat it with a whisk and, adding the flour mixture in small portions, knead the tough dough. Knock the dough out on the table and place it back in the bowl. Seal with foil so that the dough remains out of air. Keep it in this form, near heat, for at least an hour. Then cut the semi-finished product into portions, and, dusting the work surface, roll out the pizza dough on kefir. The layers should be no more than 1 cm thick. Tuck the edges of the flatbreads inward by 3 cm, then place the dough in a mold, seam down and cook the pizza.
If you add less sugar, then you can make pizza with any savory filling from the same dough.
Products composition:
Cottage cheese, fat (15%) 250 g
Sugar 50-70 g
Kefir 120 ml
A mixture of soda and ammonium 10 g
Creamy margarine (or butter) 125 g
Egg 2 pcs.
Semolina 150 g
Flour 200-250 g
Preparation:
Combine the wet and dry ingredients of the dough first separately. Sift the flour first. Carefully beat the cottage cheese, eggs and kefir with a mixer into a fluffy and homogeneous mixture, add the melted fat. Then start pouring the dry mixture, stirring the dough with a whisk, and then manually. Let the dough stand for the semolina to absorb moisture. You should have a thick but very soft dough. It should be thick enough to be comfortable to work with. If there is not enough flour, then stir it right on the table. Each portion must be doused in flour, and the product must be formed in a prepared form. Immediately spread the filling on the surface, making a depression in the cake, closer to the center.
The kefir test should be allowed to brew so that it becomes plastic and pliable, and the lactic acid bacteria have time to interact with an alkaline medium (soda, ammonium, baking powder). To prevent the emitted gas bubbles from evaporating, cover the container with the dough with a foil so that it does not get windy and start working with it when it becomes slightly soft. Sprinkle flour on your work surface.
Flour is poured into the liquid base of the dough, and not vice versa, so that the dough turns out smooth, without lumps.
If you prepare the dough with kefir, then there is no need to use the additional oxidizing agent contained in the baking powder and citric acid or vinegar. Kefir is acidic enough for the reaction to start. Adding acid can speed up this reaction so much that the dough has no time to rise.
When adding soda, try to be careful. An excess of it will give the dough a dark color and unpleasant taste. It is better to replace it with ammonium or mix with it in equal parts.
Pizza is one of the most popular dishes in the world.
What is pizza? It is a thin, stuffed tortilla that is baked at 180 degrees. There are various recipes for making pizza dough, but most cooks prefer yeast-free kefir dough.

A simple recipe for kefir dough
This dough for pizza with kefir has one main advantage - it "absorbs" the filling, due to which it appears not only on the surface, but also inside the dough. Pizza made from such a dough turns out to be incredibly tasty and tender, moreover, it cooks quickly enough.
Ingredients:
400 g of kefir (if there is no kefir, you can replace with sour milk or sour cream),
2 eggs,
½ tsp soda (only without a slide),
2.5 tbsp. wheat flour,
½ tsp fine salt,
vinegar - a little, for extinguishing soda.
Preparation:
First, take the eggs and beat them well with a whisk (you can use a mixer), and then gradually add sugar, add salt and beat everything again. Then very carefully pour the kefir in a thin stream.
Separately extinguish soda in a small amount of vinegar, and then add it to the rest of the components and mix everything well again. In order for the pizza to turn out tender and airy, you must first sift the flour through a fine sieve, and then introduce it into the dough. Now we knead until it acquires a uniform consistency.
The result is quite a lot of dough, making it enough for a large baking sheet. Before spreading the dough, cover the baking sheet with parchment paper, then pour the dough and spread the filling on top.
We bake the pizza in a preheated oven until the dough acquires a pleasant golden hue.
Yeast-free dough on kefir
For those housewives who love pizza, but at the same time cannot work with yeast dough, a yeast-free dough for pizza with kefir is just ideal. Unlike yeast dough, such a dough is not only easier to prepare, but also much faster, since in this case there is no need to wait for the dough to "rise".
Ingredients:
100 g of kefir,
1 tsp soda (only without a slide),
20 g oil (vegetable),
1 egg,
500 g wheat flour
a small pinch of salt.
Preparation:
To begin with, in a deep container, mix kefir, salt and add half of the entire volume of flour. Now beat the eggs until foam forms, but not too thick, and then pour the eggs into a container with kefir and flour. Now we add oil (about 10 milliliters).
We continue to gradually add flour in small portions into the dough, we do not stop constantly stirring. Make sure that no lumps appear in the dough. If necessary, add the remaining oil at the very end.
Now knead the dough well until it gets the consistency of soda pancakes. Do not worry if the dough turns out to be too thin, as in this case we add a little more flour, but at the same time we make sure that the dough does not turn out very thick.
Leave the dough for about 15 minutes before rolling it into a pizza bed. At this time, you can prepare the filling. If the dough sticks to your hands strongly, then grease your hands with a small amount of oil and you can start making pizza.
Simple dough on kefir
The dough for pizza on kefir, prepared according to this recipe, turns out to be light and fluffy, bakes well. Using this recipe, you can select a wide variety of fillings.
Ingredients:
350 g flour
¼ h. L. fine salt,
¼ h. L. baking soda,
2 eggs,
250 g of kefir.
Preparation:
First, take a small bowl and beat the eggs in it with a whisk, then add salt and beat again. Pour kefir into a deep bowl and add soda, but before that we extinguish the soda with a small amount of vinegar.
Then pour the beaten eggs into a container for kefir and mix everything thoroughly - as a result, a homogeneous mixture should be obtained. Now we can add flour, but it is best to do it in small portions, since in this way it will be much easier to feel what consistency the dough has.
It is very convenient to knead the dough with a blender, but it is best to do it by hand. Using a water bath, melt the butter and then add it to the dough. Mix the dough well. It is important that you get a dough with the consistency of thick sour cream, while the dough should be quite liquid, but also fluffy (this will be the reaction of soda with kefir).
Grease the baking sheet with a small amount of vegetable oil and pour out the ready-made dough, put any filling on top and place the baking sheet in the oven.
To prepare such a dough, even sour cream can be used instead of kefir, but in this case 250 g is added and mixed with soda quenched with vinegar.
Quick dough on kefir
If you have a desire to cook delicious pizza, but you don't want to bother too much with the dough, then this recipe becomes a real salvation. Even an inexperienced cook can make a dough according to this recipe, the main thing is to follow the specified recipe exactly.
Ingredients:
1 egg,
1 tsp baking powder,
2 tbsp. flour,
250 g of kefir (can be replaced with soft cottage cheese, wiped through a fine sieve),
3 tbsp. l. oil (olive!),
salt - a little, to taste.
Preparation:
We prepare this dough for pizza on kefir, in the same way as for pancakes, but at the same time it should be thicker, but not strong. Now we proceed directly to the preparation of the dough - using a fork or a kitchen whisk, beat the egg well, but at the same time it should not turn into a thick foam.
Add a small amount of kefir to the beaten egg, a little oil and salt - mix everything well, make sure that the mass is homogeneous.
Mix the baking powder with flour and sift through a fine sieve to make the pizza more tender and airy. Then we introduce the flour into the kefir-egg mixture, but do not add the entire volume of flour at once, as lumps may appear, but add gradually, in small portions and constantly stir. But at the same time, you cannot stir the dough for too long, so as not to break the gas bubbles.
Using this pizza dough recipe, you don't need to knead it by hand. Cover the baking sheet with a sheet of parchment paper and sprinkle with a small amount of flour on top, and then pour out the finished dough. To distribute the dough evenly over the surface of the baking sheet, moisten your hand with water and distribute with your fingers.
In the event that a sticky and not very soft dough turned out, then sprinkle a small amount of flour on top and press down harder, and form a small side on the sides.
Grease the dough with any sauce on top, lay out the ready-made filling and place the baking sheet in a well-heated oven, bake for about 20 minutes, until the dough is covered with a fragrant crust.
Yeast dough for pizza with kefir
It is prepared quite simply. The biggest drawback of this recipe is that you need to give the dough some time to rise.
Ingredients:
2 tsp Sahara,
3 tsp fast-acting yeast,
0.5 tbsp. vegetable oil,
700 g of kefir,
0.5 tbsp. warm water
flour - you need to navigate by the consistency of the dough,
salt - a little, to taste.
Preparation:
First, take a sufficiently deep bowl and pour half of one glass of water into it (it is important that the water is warm, since in this case the yeast will begin to act much faster).
Now pour all the sugar specified in the recipe into the water and mix everything well with a kitchen whisk. Make sure that the sugar is completely dissolved in the dough.
Once the sugar is dissolved, add three teaspoons of instant yeast to the water. Now, with soft, smooth movements, stir the yeast with a spoon or a whisk (it is important not to make sudden movements).
Now we leave the dough for about 15 minutes so that the yeast can completely dissolve. After the specified period of time, add kefir to the dough (about 700 milliliters). Using a whisk, beat the yeast and kefir well.
Now we take a sieve and sift the flour several times and add it to the dough. Knead the dough well until it acquires a uniform consistency. It is very important not to add too much flour, so it is introduced gradually, in small portions. The dough should acquire the consistency of thick sour cream, we also make sure that no lumps form, but if this happens, we continue to knead the dough until they disappear.
Now add a little more flour to the dough - as a result, the dough should be very difficult to mix with a spoon (spatula). We continue to knead the dough with our hands until it becomes softer and gets a uniform consistency. It is important to remember that you do not need to knead the dough very hard, as it may simply not rise.
As soon as the dough is almost completely ready, add vegetable oil to it (if desired, you can use olive oil). Now knead the dough to the end, and as soon as the oil is completely absorbed, place the container with the dough in a warm place and leave it for about one hour, until it rises well.
While the dough is rising, we begin to prepare the filling so as not to waste time. From the amount of ingredients specified in the recipe, the dough will be about four or five pizzas, depending on what size the baking sheet will be used.
As soon as the dough rises well, grease your hands with a small amount of vegetable oil and slightly knead the dough, but not very hard and leave again for about 20 minutes. As soon as the dough is completely ready, we can proceed directly to the preparation of pizza.
Divide the dough into four to five equal parts, roll it out with a thin sheet and put it on a prepared baking sheet, make small sides around the edges. Lay out the ready-made filling on top and place the future pizza in a well-preheated oven, bake until fully cooked, until an appetizing golden brown crust appears. Leftover dough can be refrigerated and used next time.
