Preparation
The dough balls are shipped frozen and may have thawed slightly on arrival. They can be safely refrozen and stored for up to 3 months, or can be stored thawed in the fridge for up to 3 days.
When it's time for pizza, for best results, remove frozen dough balls from the freezer the night before you plan to use them and allow them to thaw overnight in their bags in the fridge. The following morning, remove each dough ball from the bag, re-ball and place into a Babadoh, cover with the lid to prevent the dough from drying out and allow to prove for at least 2 hours before opening out into a pizza base.
Lightly flour the dough ball, then gently press and stretch the dough ball out to a 12" pizza base. Full defrosting and preparation instructions are included in your order.
