She indicated towards the various sizes and coloured aprons that were hanging on the hook by the sink as she donned a yellow one herself. She then retied her hair back into her a low bun. "And also, girls? And boys?" Technically. Ahem, Nigel. "Despite the dose of protein, you'll want to tie your hair back as no one wants hair in their pizza."

Whilst they were getting on their own aprons and washing their hair, Hadley set to work on copying the recipe onto the portable chalkboard:

1 1/2 cup warm water
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon. yeast
1/2 teaspoon salt
3-4 1/2 cups flour

Step One: Using one of the bowls at your workstation, combine the water, sugar, and yeast. Let the mixture stand for 10 minutes (or until yeast is bubbly)

Step Two: Add salt and stir.

Step Three: Add 1/2 cup flour and mix well, gradually adding more flour (usually no more than 3-4 1/2 cups) until the dough starts to pull away from the sides of the bowl and no longer sticks to your fingers. You'll want to add just 1/2 a cup at a time.

Step Four: Spray the other bowl with cooking spray and place dough in the bowl.

Step Five: Cover and allow the dough to rise for 45 minutes, or until its doubled in size.

"So the recipe for the dough is on the board. You may work in pairs, or individually, as there's enough ingredients for both options." Anything else they needed to know? "We'll discuss more about the ingredients after we get the dough prepared while we're waiting for it to rise." In the meantime they had to get the dough prepared, as that was possibly the longest part in the whole process.

Once she made sure everyone to got to work, Hadley settled into her own workstation. Because at least if they failed (and she was expecting at least SOME of their pizzas to not come out right), they would have one good pie.

ooc: Dough prep time! I'll check back in about 11 hours or so for questions and whatnot. Feel free to make your character add too little or too much ingredients (if its IC of them to do so). And in about 17-18 hours, we'll be at step five - the waiting game and have some more discussion!

Leah loved sugar. Though she regretted eating large amount of sugar every time she did. She walked up and grabbed a yellow apron to put on. Then she washed her hands cautiously, making sure that they were clean. Really clean. The second year tied her hair back into a ponytail as she walked back to her workstation.

After reading the instructions, Leah measured out the ingredients and put them inside a bowl. Hmm, they could work in pairs. Looking around for ~~Angel~~ someone who needed a partner, she started combining the ingredients. "Professor, do we need to clean every materials we use?" she asked, raising her hand that was not occupied and waving her other hand at the bowls and cups. If they did it was not too late to start over again - or was it?
