What Is Sourdough Pizza Crust?
Sourdough pizza dough is simply a crust that uses a sourdough starter instead of yeast to leaven the crust. The end product is a crust that is both crispy and chewy!
Can I Use All Purpose Flour Instead Of Bread Flour?
Yes you can! Using all purpose flour will still give you a delicious dough. Although bread flour will help get a chewier and bubblier texture, bread flour has a higher protein content. But if all you have is all purpose, dont let that stop you from making this dough!
Can I Freeze This Dough?
Yes! This dough can be frozen and pulled out to use on pizza night! Make a double batch. freeze and have ready for a quick pizza dinner.
Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and store in a freezer Ziploc bag.
