NOTE ABOUT PRE-MADE DOUGH: If you buy pre-made dough, the best stuff comes from your local pizzeria. They pack it better than grocery stores so it will be easier to stretch. Ask the pizzeria when the dough was made and how many ounces are in the dough ball. We may have to cut it down for use at home. If you have to buy from a grocery store, just be careful not to squeeze the dough before we’re ready to stretch it. Either way, you’ll have to let pre-made dough sit out on the counter for 2 hours before the class begins. If you buy frozen dough, let it defrost in the refrigerator for 24-48 hours before the class if possible. Check out this video for some helpful hints for using store-bought dough!
