Dough

Bes · 12 Apr 2009 at 10:12

Hi,

I made pizza on Friday night (from scratch) and had/ have a big ball of leftover dough.

Currently it is just sitting in the fridge and has grown to about 2x its original size.

Is it OK to freeze? will it rise again when defrosted and cooked? or is it best to use it now/ turn it into a loaf of bread?

Thanks

Wil freeze fine and will come out in the same condition as you made it, bread dough freezes well.

Make pasta! If you dont have a machine, rolling pin it out and use a knife to make wide pasta.

It will freeze, personally I would roll it out before hand, or as paradigm said...dough balls nom nom nom.

How the hell do you expect to make pasta from bread dough? Pasta dough is completely different.

But yes, it freezes well - I tend to make about 4 lots of dough when I do pizza and freeze what I don't use, always turns out fine.

Cookies are not made of bread dough.

That could still result in an amusing experiment
