Trader Joe's Pizza Dough?!


Question: Trader Joe's Pizza Dough?
I love Trader Joe's pizza dough that is sold in the plastic bag. Does anyone know how they make it so stretchy and rubbery.

Answers:

It's just regular dough. I occasionally buy it and think its pretty good too but my homemade dough is pretty close in characteristics. I would say that trader joes dough is close to a dough I make without olive oil. When I put olive oil in my dough it is a little softer.

Trader Joe's also uses high gluten flour (bread flour). It's the gluten that gives that elasticity

So, if you wanted to make a dough similar to trader joes, you would want to make a dough with bread flour, salt, yeast and water

My recipe would call for 3 cups bread flour, 2 tsp yeast and 2 tsp salt being mixed well and then mixing in 1 1/4 cups water. When it is combined well, knead about 40 times and put it in a covered bowl or plastic bag to rise.
(best if let rise in the refrigerator overnight and then removing about 3 hours before you need it)



TRADER JOE'S FTW



No but I agree it's awesome.
