Dough Usage Guide

Your Dough, Your Way: How to Use Our Fresh, Frozen & Gluten-Free Dough

Thank you for supporting Everything Dough!

This quick guide will help you get the best results from your dough—whether you bought it fresh, frozen, or gluten-free—and no matter what oven you’re using, including Ooni and Gozney pizza ovens.

Frozen Dough

Thaw in the Fridge (8–12 hrs)
Keep it in its bag or sealed container.
Room Temp Rise (4–6 hrs)
Place in a lightly oiled bowl and cover. Let it double in size.
Stretch & Bake!
Gently stretch by hand and bake using a pizza steel, stone, or oven (see oven tips below).

Fresh Dough

Store in Fridge (up to 3 days)
Leave in the container or transfer to a bowl with space to rise.
Room Temp Rise (4–6 hrs)
Let dough rest until puffed and jiggly.
Stretch & Bake
Use your hands to gently stretch the dough, being careful not to deflate it.

Gluten-Free Dough (Caputo Fioreglut)

We use the best Italian gluten-free flour on the market for a result that rivals traditional dough.

Room Temp Rise (2–3 hrs)
Take dough out of the fridge. Keep it covered and let it rise at room temp.
Shaping
Gluten-free dough is more delicate. Either gently press into shape with oiled hands or roll it between two pieces of parchment paper.
Baking
Bake on parchment on a preheated stone or steel at 500–550°F for 4–6 minutes, or until golden and crisp. Remove parchment halfway through for extra browning. You can always bake at 850°F in a portable oven for a restaurant looking result.

Note: Gluten-free dough may puff slightly but won’t rise as much as traditional dough. That’s normal!

Baking in Ooni or Gozney Ovens

Our dough is designed to perform beautifully in high-heat ovens like Ooni and Gozney.

Prep Tips:

Preheat your oven for at least 30 minutes at max temp (ideally 850–950°F).
Flour or semolina the pizza peel generously to prevent sticking.
Stretch dough to ~10–12 inches and top lightly to avoid sogginess.

Baking:

Bake for 60–90 seconds, rotating the pizza every 20–30 seconds for even cooking.
