ferment their dough long before commercial yeast was available
at the local grocery store. A biga is made with a small amount

of water, wheat flour, and wild yeast that occurs naturally in the
air all around us. It is fermented over several hours and added to
a larger batch of unleavened dough, and then more fermenting
occurs. At Bigalora, this whole process takes 72 hours before our
dough is ready for your pizza.
It took us two years to perfect our biga technique, and it’s now a
daily ritual that our skilled bakers perform. But each bite confirms
that this slow, artisanal process is so worth the effort. The earthy,
slightly nutty flavor, the satisfying, chewy texture, and the airiness
of our pizza dough are all a result of the biga process. And
because we use no commercial yeast or sugars, a Bigalora pizza
reflects our passion for making healthy, high-quality food that we
would feed to our own family. After 72 hours in the making, all
that’s required is firing up a wood burning oven to 900 degrees
and baking to a pleasant char for 90 seconds. So….
Short answer [again]:
72 hours. 900 degrees. 90 seconds.
