Probably won’t ever learn to stretch the dough properly but so far they turned out alright.

    Dang, that actually looks great if you ask me! I see your point though, stretching it properly sounds like hell lol.

    Let your dough rest for at least 24 hours in the fridge. When stretching, if it is springing back hard, let it rest 5-10 minutes and then stretch again.

      Bro I gotta feed my family tonight I have no time for 24hr dough recipes.

      Rest the dough balls, then stretch most of the way with a rolling pin, then rest again, then hand stretch the final couple inches.

        Ok, planning ahead is a thing too. Letting it rest overnight improves the overall texture of the final pie.

          My quick cheat is to keep a bunch of sourdough discard in the freezer and use it as ready-made preferment to add flavor.
