The ingredients for the dough

For a kg of flour, you will need 20 grams of salt up, 5 grams of lyophilized yeast (the dough, to speak) and 800 grams of water. If you like the pizza with a consistency that you remember a little focaccia, add 40 grams of extra virgin olive oil.

How to work dough

For processing there are various schools of thought regarding how to combine ingredients and mix them. There are those who work the dough only twice: a first time creating a unique dough to let rise and then, with a second processing, it creates the individual panetti ready for the pan. A second street is the one more shooting. After working the dough a first time, it intervenes countered 10/15 minutes for several times before leaving it to rise.

Leavening

For leavening there is a variable to never neglect: the temperature of the environment. Consider how hot it is where you leave the dough to rest and, based on this, calculate the time required. At room temperature usually takes from 8 to 10 hours of leavening. If instead you want to let the mixture rise in the fridge you will need 24.

How to spread the dough in the pan

Take the rolling pin and ... put it aside! No need. Once the pan is ready, place it in the pan and spread it using only the fingertips. From the center to the edges and by edge on board. Lightweight pressure on the pasta and another rule, less time you will take to spread everything, the better the result will be. If necessary, slightly ungate the baking pan with a little olive oil before laying through it.
