one of our recent practicals was a pizza with a three ingredient base this fits into our history of food culture as when some of the settlers came they brought a pizza recipe with them which has now become a staple of takeouts in NZ

one of the processes used in this recipe was the dough making which was key for the pizza to be light and soft, this involved lots of mixing and kneading to make sure the dough is the right consistency and isn't too sticky.

this differed from the takeout version as the bases are usually harder but they are generally larger which could be the reason for the hardness we also had less fat in it as we didn't use butter as part of the dough this showed me that you don't only have one recipe for pizza dough and i could use this in the future if i ever make pizza's at home for dinner.
