  • 2 tablespoons pancetta, diced
  • 1 teaspoon red onion, diced

  • Upon bringing your dough home from the store, place it in a bowl that has been lightly greased with olive oil.
  • Place the dough inside the bowl and cover the dough with a kitchen cloth.
  • Let the dough sit for approximately 1.5–2 hours, or until the dough rises and expands.
  • Once risen, place the dough onto a baking sheet and cut it into 2 halves.
  • Begin stretching the dough in a circular manner on the baking sheet.
  • After some pan stretching, put each of your fists underneath the dough and gently stretch the dough out in a circular direction.
