What's your technique?
We try to make our own dough, but this week I have the premade dough balls from Harris Teeter.
I usually do a combination of rolling pin and hand stretching. When I stretch by hand I place them over my knuckles and gently stretch.
+1
I let it sit out at least 30 min too.

I hold it by the edge and let gravity stretch it out. I slowly turn it so it stretches out evenly.

We usually let it sit for about 20 minutes. Are you suggesting longer than that?
NP, but I usually let mine sit out for an hour or two. Then I stretch by hand and do some spins in the air with the dough on my fists for the kids. If the dough won't stretch, I let it rest like PP recs, otherwise it will rip and that sucks.
