Quick Answer
Use the Dough Pack to skip the mixing and measuring, and focus on shaping and baking. Follow the simple steps below to get consistent, restaurant-quality pizza dough every time.
Why the Dough Pack Works
The Dough Pack is designed to work alongside your Baking Steel, providing dough that is ready to shape and bake. This means you can focus on the fun part—stretching, topping, and baking—without worrying about fermentation times or hydration levels.
Because the dough is pre-made, you eliminate the variables that often lead to inconsistent results. This is especially helpful if you're new to home pizza making or want to save time on busy weeknights.
Getting the Most from Your Dough
To get the best results, let the dough come to room temperature before shaping. Cold dough is harder to stretch and can tear easily. Also, be generous with flour on your work surface to prevent sticking.
Remember, the Dough Pack pairs well with your Baking Steel for even heat distribution. Preheat your steel thoroughly to achieve that crispy, charred crust you love.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Take the dough out of the fridge: Remove the dough from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. This makes it easier to shape and prevents tearing. Don't skip the rest time—cold dough is stiff and hard to stretch.
- Flour your work surface: Lightly dust your countertop or pizza peel with flour. Place the dough on the floured surface and gently press it into a flat disc. Use enough flour to prevent sticking, but not so much that it dries out the dough.
- Shape the dough: Using your fingertips, press from the center outward, leaving the edges slightly thicker for a crust. Then, gently stretch the dough by draping it over your fists and rotating it. If the dough resists, let it rest for a few minutes and try again—don't force it.
- Top and bake: Add your favorite toppings, then slide the pizza onto a preheated Baking Steel. Bake at 500°F (260°C) or higher for 7-10 minutes, or until the crust is golden and blistered. Preheat the steel for at least 45 minutes to ensure a crisp bottom.
