Overnight Pizza Dough With Levain

Risen and ready to divide and shape.


Divide Dough into 5 equal parts.

Gently form the dough into a round shape.

Pulling the ball of dough toward yourself,
with a few fingers at the lower edge,
dragging it toward you to create a
smooth surface on the surface of the dough.

Place all five balls on a greased pan or sheet
and let rise to double their size.

When the dough has rested and risen, you will be ready to form
it into 12" rounds for pizza.

As Always,
ENJOY!
