  4. Start of proofing (at room temperature) (30 min)
  5. Ready to cook
    • Stretch it into the pan using only your fingers, without deflating the dough too much: there's enough dough here, no need for a rolling pin.
    • After topping it, let it rest half an hour: with more yeast, the rest in the pan should give you a good burst of bubbles before baking.
