 * ==== When making a pizza, first, you have to knead the dough then roll it under to form a ball. Don't thin it out too much. You let the ball of dough sit for 10-20 minutes. Then you spread it out, forming a circle. After you form a circle, you fold it so that it keeps its shape. You can pinch the edges so that it makes a crust. You can spin it to help make a circle. You put it on a pan and spread it with oil and pre-bake it for about five-ten minutes. ====


 * ==== Take the crust out of the oven, put the toppings on. You shouldn't put too much cheese or it will drip off the sides. We put on pepperoni, basil, ricotta cheese, broccoli (not too much broccoli). The oven has to be at least 500 degrees. Bake the pies for 10-15 minutes. ====
