Top Tips for Pizza Making:
• If the dough is room temperature, use your ngers to gently stretch it out. Once you've
mastered stretching the dough, you may try different forms like rectangles, rounds, and
squares.
• It is important that the water is neither too cold not too warm - room temperature or slightly
warmer, it should feel the same temperature as your hands, lukewarm.
• If you want air pockets and a light, crisp dough, do not use a rolling pin. It attens and deates
the air bubbles. (The greatest air bubbles are produced after two days in the refrigerator;
remove it three to four hours before use).
