❓ Frequently Asked Questions About Bobby Flay Pizza Dough

1. Can I freeze this pizza dough?

Yes, you can freeze the dough after it has risen. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and place it in a freezer bag. It will keep for up to 3 months. Thaw it in the refrigerator overnight before using.

2. How long should I knead the dough?

You should knead the dough for about 8 minutes until it is smooth and elastic. If you are using a stand mixer with a dough hook, it may take about 5 minutes.

3. Can I use whole wheat flour instead of all purpose?

You can substitute half of the all purpose flour with whole wheat flour. The dough will be denser and a bit less chewy, but it still works well.

4. What if my dough does not rise?

Make sure your yeast is fresh and the water is warm, not hot. The ideal temperature is around 110 degrees F. If the room is cold, place the dough in a slightly warm oven (turned off) to help it rise.

5. How thin should I roll the dough?

Roll the dough to about 1/4 inch thick for a standard pizza crust. For a thinner crust, roll it to 1/8 inch. For a thicker crust, leave it at 1/2 inch.
