whats the best/easiest way to stretch out pizza dough?

How are you trying to stretch it? The whole dough into a round pie? Or are you cutting it into portions and what to stretch the pieces? I guess it would be helpfult to know what your going to do with it.

I used to work in a pizzeria - so I can definitely help.

i want to make a round pie...

i seem to have no luck with a rolling pin, so i was hoping to just be able to stretch it to fit the pan

Well you could do 2 things...stretch it with your fists like they do in a pizzeria - basically have both fist together and the dough on top and slowly stretch from the middle out turning the dough. As it gets stretched move your fists further and further apart.
Or you can lay the dough on the counter and press from the center outward with your fingers. Moving out as it gets stretched.

Good luck!

thankyou!

Do you know how pizzerias make sauce for their pizzas? Nothing I buy or make tastes as good.

I know! Unfortunately, that secret was never revealed
