Answer 2

Making Pizza Dough In Advance

Answer 3

It's as easy as (pizza) pie! PIZZA DOUGH 1 (1/4-oz) package instant dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons) 2 1/4 to 2 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour plus additional for kneading and dredging 1 cup warm water (105 - 115°F) 1 teaspoon salt 2 Tbsp olive oil Whisk together yeast, 1 tablespoon flour, and 1/4 cup warm water in a measuring cup and let stand until mixture develops a creamy foam, about 5 minutes. (If mixture doesn't foam, discard and start over with new yeast.) Stir together salt and 1 1/2 cups flour in a large bowl. Add yeast mixture and remaining 3/4 cup warm water and stir until smooth, then stir in another 1/2 cup flour. If dough sticks to your fingers, stir in just enough flour (up to 3/4 cup), a little at a time, to make dough just come away from side of bowl. (This dough may be wetter than other pizza doughs you have made.) Knead dough on a lightly floured surface with floured hands, lightly reflouring work surface and your hands when dough becomes too sticky, until dough is smooth, soft, and elastic, about 10 minutes. Divide dough in half and form into 2 balls, then generously dust balls all over with flour, cover with bowls or dish towel and let rest 10 minutes. Shape into pizzas, prebake 5-7 minutes at 400ºF. Dough can be allowed to rise slowly, covered, in the refrigerator for 1 day. Bring to room temperature before using. Makes 2 (10-inch) pizzas.

Yes, you can make the pizza dough one day in advance and put it in the fridge. After you take it out of the fridge give it some time to rise a little and go for it.

Answer 7

You can make pizza dough 30-60 minutes in advance, however I have always found it tastes better when it sits in the fridge for 24 hours.

Answer 8

Yes. Instead of putting it in the fridge after it's ready to go, let it rise in the fridge. I understand that a slow rise enhances the elasticity of the dough, making it actually better for stretching.

Answer 9

yes, no dont bake it
make the dough roll it out, grease a pizza tray and lay it on, and then put cling film over the whole lot, next day unwrap it might have shrunk a little bit just push it out towards the edges and prick the base well with a fork (prebake if you like it really crispy) and put your ingredients on top, cook, yummy

Answer 10

either way, but if I have time enough to let it warm and rise a bit before baking, I usually put it in the fridge after it's risen, wrapped in plastic wrap. I've done the pre-bake thing too, but if you put the crust in the fridge, it ends up a little soggy. If you put it in the freezer, you have to have time to let it thaw out.
