Transfer the dough to a clean surface and prepare to make pizza balls.

9

Spread fine semolina flour on the surface to prevent sticking.

Weigh out portions of dough between 250 and 270 g for each pizza ball.

Shape each portion into a ball, ensuring the bottom is sealed.

Place the pizza balls on a tray dusted with semolina flour or in individual airtight plastic containers with a little oil.
