  • Start kneading the dough. To get the consistency right, it’s advisable to set a timer and knead for at least 10 minutes. The dough should become elastic and not stick to your hands. Grease the dish where you initially mixed the dough with a thin layer of olive oil. Put the dough there and also grease its surface with oil. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate preferably overnight. Dough prepared this way turns out to be more airy and tasty. If you are limited in time and want to enjoy pizza on the same day, then use warm but not hot water when kneading and let the dough rise in a warm place.
