OK this a heck of a topic and in order to create a perfect pizza you will need to start with a perfect base.

Now this can be done a variety of ways.

hand stretching – this is the preferred method however there are several different sub methods within this! I go for this method which I find the most in intuitive way of doing it

But each to their own and experiment on how you like to do it best.

rolling – rolling out with a pin, OK so not preferred but it you love a thin crispy base this can save a lot of time and effort and create a perfect pizza for you.
