Flip out onto a floured board and knead for about 4-6 minutes.  If dough feels sticky keep adding flour while you knead. When fully kneaded put back into bowl and let rest for 10 minutes. It will rise

Carefully lay the rolled dough into whatever sheet or pizza tray you are using - shape sides.  Use a fork to poke holes all over the pizza- this helps with air bubbles.  Sprinkle desired seasonings.
