PIZZA FROM FROZEN BREAD DOUGH

Steps:

• Let dough thaw overnight in the refrigerator (see here for other ways to thaw frozen dough). Pull it out and set it out on a counter for 30 minutes up a few hours before making pizza. When you're ready to shape and bake the pizza, preheat the oven to 450ºF.
• Divide the pre-made pizza dough into two. Shape each half into a ball. Use a floured rolling pin to shape the dough into a round crust. Or, shape it by hand by stretching it with your upturned hands to pull the dough from underneath in an outward motion.
• When the crust is the desired size, transfer it to a sheet pan lined with parchment paper and a light drizzle of olive oil.
• Bake the bare pizza dough in the oven at 450ºF for 5 minutes. While it is baking, prepare your toppings.
• Once the dough is ready, take it out and preheat the oven to 500ºF. Add the sauce, dried herbs, cheese, and other toppings to the pizza crust, leaving a 1" edge around. Brush olive oil around the outer crust of the dough, then lightly sprinkle the edges with salt.
• Bake the pizza at 500º F for 7-10 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and the edges of the crust are golden. Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before adding fresh herbs, then slice and serve.
