The dough is crafted with wild yeast, using a mother starter (affectionately known as 'Bubbles'). A slow 48-hour cold fermentation process results in a robust, sour and tangy flavour with nutty afternotes.

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.

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 4 hours before opening out into a pizza base. For best results, leave for a maximum of 8 hours.

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.

Frequently asked questions

What are Babadoh Sourdough Pizza Dough Balls?

Babadoh Sourdough Pizza Dough Balls are artisan dough portions made using a traditional sourdough recipe. They undergo a 48-hour cold fermentation process with wild yeast, resulting in a tangy, nutty flavour and a chewy, crisp crust.

What makes sourdough pizza balls different from regular dough?

Sourdough dough balls are made with high-protein wheat flour, a mother started affectionately known as 'Bubbles' and slow-fermented over 48 hours, giving them a rich, tangy flavour with nutty undertones. They bake into a crust that’s crisp on the outside, chewy inside, and full of character.

How do I prepare the sourdough dough balls?

For best results, thaw the dough balls overnight in the fridge. The next day, re-ball each dough portion, place it in a Babadoh dough tray, cover, and allow it to prove at room temperature for4-8 hours.

Due to the natural yeast, sourdough dough balls need extra time to proof and rest after refrigeration or freezing - you may need to allow several hours longer than our other dough balls for the yeast to fully reactivate.

Once proofed, stretch the dough into a 12" pizza base and bake as desired.

Can I refreeze the dough balls if they arrive slightly thawed?

Yes, if the dough balls are still cold upon arrival, they can be safely refrozen and stored for up to 3 months. Alternatively, store them thawed in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Are Babadoh Sourdough Pizza Dough Balls suitable for vegans?

Yes, our sourdough dough balls are vegan-friendly. They contain no sugar, preservatives, lactose, or soy, and are made with wheat flour, water, salt, and wild yeast.

What equipment do I need to bake the pizzas?

While the dough balls are versatile and can be baked in various ovens, using a hot baking steel or pizza stone will yield the best results. These tools help achieve a crisp crust and even cooking.

How should I store the dough balls?

Keep the dough balls frozen until ready to use. Once thawed, store them in the fridge for up to 3 days in a covered container to prevent drying out.

Where are Babadoh Dough Balls made?

They are lovingly created in Yorkshire by Great Balls of Flour, using an authentic recipe inspired by Italian pizzerias.

What size pizzas do your sourdough dough balls make?

Each 250g dough ball is portioned to create a 12-inch sourdough pizza with a bubbly crust and chewy base.

What ingredients are in your sourdough dough balls?

They’re made with wheat flour, water, salt, and wild yeast, no preservatives, no sugar, no lactose, and no soy. They're vegan-friendly and crafted for clean, authentic flavour.
