How people cook with it
This dough is perfect for quick weeknight meals or for entertaining guests. It provides a solid foundation for all your favorite pizza toppings.

To use, simply unwrap the dough and let it sit at room temperature for about 15-20 minutes. This makes it more pliable and easier to stretch or roll out. Lightly flour your work surface and your hands, then gently press or roll the dough into your desired pizza shape and thickness. Transfer the shaped dough to a baking sheet or pizza stone. Add your favorite sauce, cheese, and toppings, then bake according to your pizza recipe's instructions until golden brown and bubbly.
