Knead the dough for about 8-10 minutes until smooth. (I use a stand mixer with a bread hook for this)

Tips

You can use bread flour or all-purpose flour, however '00' is recommended for a more authentic chew to the pizza. You can also oil the dough up and put in fridge for later. When ready set out at least a hour before to raise.
