  1. Add the water gradually to the dough (step 1). You might not need it all.

  2. Prepare the pizza dough as in step 2 up to 12 hours in advance. Put the dough in a large bowl, cover with cling film and leave to rise slowly in the fridge. Take the dough out of the fridge about 30 minutes before you want to shape the pizza.
