Mix and knead

Knead with your hands until well combined, approximately 3 minutes, then let the mixture rest for 15 minutes.

Shape and rise

Knead rested dough for 3 minutes. Place on a heavily floured surface, cover with dampened cloth, and let rest and rise for 3 to 4 hours at room temperature or for 8 to 24 hours in the refrigerator.

If you refrigerate the dough, remove it 30 to 45 minutes before you begin to shape it for pizza.

Stretch and bake

Place each ball on a heavily floured surface. Stretch with your fingers, then shape into rounds or squares with your hands. Top and bake.
