Freezing GF Dough
« on: June 21, 2019, 01:08:02 PM »
Hello, like a lot of you, I'm using Fiore-Glut, but still experimenting with the right ratios (big thanks to RedKiosk and Doodneyy).

Anyway, my question:

Has anyone frozen their GF dough?
Did you have any problems thawing and turning it into a pizza?

Thanks!

Okay, no takers, so i tried this myself.


No problem.
I let the dough rise and then froze it.
Thawed it in the fridge, let it sit out for a couple of hours to get to room temperature and I was good to go.

When it comes to pizza, this is almost always the right (and best) answer.

Starting back this topic. What container do you use to freeze the GF flour? Anything special in your your workflow?

I use plastic bags, which work well. I'd try to use anything that can remove as much air as possible. I'm usually using packaged GF dough, so I just use the plastic bag it came in. Otherwise, a bread bag or ziploc bag should work fine. I'd guess a plastic or glass container can work, but I like removing the air (although not usually doing any vacuum sealing).

I find it easiest to par-bake the dough, wrap well, then freeze.
