Frequently Asked Questions About the Recipe:

Do I have to knead the dough?

It is necessary to knead the dough for a few minutes to help with the elasticity when stretching out for the toppings. Don't worry, it is easy peasy!

How to Stretch Pizza Dough?

I find the best way to stretch out pizza dough is to work on a floured surface and handle it the least as possible without letting your hands get sticky. I like to push my fingers tips down into the dough and push it out into a circle. Then, pick up the dough by the edge with my fingertips and allow it to hang a bit to stretch out, then begin to turn it in the air to allow it to stretch on all sides. Place it back on the floured circle and make sure it looks nice and circular for toppings.

Can I allow this pizza dough recipe to rise?

Absolutely! If you prefer to allow the dough to rise, place it into a lightly olive oiled bowl and cover with a tea towel for about an hour before kneading.

What is the best temperature to cook homemade pizza?

A higher temperature will make a delicious pizza. We cook this dough at 450 degrees, which is a great temperature for the perfect pizza crust without burning our toppings.

Can I make personal pizzas with this dough?

Yes! We do this all the time. This batch of dough will make about 3 personal pan pizzas.
