or in this case pizza bases? DC are in garden with dh and don't want to bring them in!

Will it all go horribly wrong?!

I've never found it made any difference leaving it an extra hour or so. Specially for pizza bases when you are just smashing it flat again anyway.

I think it can taste very 'yeasty' if left a long time but not sure if that's only for the second rise. Pizzas should be fine

I've never made pizza bases, is it the same as making bread just bash it flat & roll it out when it's risen?

Exactly so, Lucysmam. And then let the children put their own toppings on - if you're brave enough!

cheers LadyGlencora, will be giving that a go when I get round to the rest of my huge list to try out

thanks for all replies - pizza was a huge success 'from scratch' for dc (we took recipe from How to teach your granny to text.

But, how can I get base really flat for dh and me??? Rolling doesn't seem to get it thin enough, and I can't imagine doing the throwing thing thing as in Pizza Express!
