This is my most popular recipe, by a long shot. If you're on reddit, you've probably seen it around a few times. The recipe is about as foolproof as pizza gets. It require no kneading and barely any stretching, and as you'll see in the video, it's pretty forgiving as well (I'm making it here without a scale, and with a poor memory - I get the amount of water wrong, and it still works out just fine).
Here's the full recipe and a bit of science on how and why the no-knead process works: https://slice.seriouseats.com/2013/01/the-pizza-lab-the-worlds-easiest-pizza-no-knead-no-stretch-pan-pizza.html
