FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
How long does refrigerated pizza dough last?
Unopened, it lasts until the 'best by' date on the package. Once opened, it should be used within 24 to 48 hours for best results.
Can I freeze refrigerated pizza dough?
Yes, you can freeze it in an airtight bag for up to 2 months. Thaw it in the fridge for 12-24 hours before you plan to bake.
Why is my pizza dough snapping back when I try to stretch it?
The dough is likely too cold. Let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to relax the gluten before stretching.
Is refrigerated pizza dough vegan?
Not always. Many commercial brands contain dairy derivatives like whey or L-cysteine (which can be animal-derived). Always check the specific label.
What can I use as a substitute for pizza dough?
Good alternatives include flatbreads, pita bread, large flour tortillas, or even cauliflower-based crusts for a lower-carb option.
How do I get a crispy crust with store-bought dough?
Bake at a high temperature (at least 425°F/220°C) and use a preheated pizza stone or an inverted baking sheet.
Can I use this dough for things other than pizza?
Absolutely. It works well for making breadsticks, calzones, garlic knots, or even cinnamon rolls.
How do I know if the dough has gone bad?
Discard the dough if it has a sour or 'off' smell, shows signs of mold, or if the package was bulging significantly.
Does refrigerated dough contain yeast?
Yes, it contains yeast, but it is formulated to rise primarily during the baking process rather than during storage.
