• If your bread machine pizza dough does not form a ball during the first few minutes of kneading, do one of two things: if the dough looks dry and crumbly, add 1 tbs (15 mL) water at 1-minute intervals until the dough forms a ball; if the dough looks wet, add 1 tbs (15 mL) bread flour at 1-minute intervals until the dough forms a ball.
• As you roll out the dough, if it feels too springy and elastic, let it rest for 2 to 3 minutes, then try again.
• To prevent the dough from rising too much and making a very thick crust, roll out and top 4 of the crusts and get them in the oven, then roll out the remaining four.
