Pizza Dough Survey


I am a huge fan of homemade pizza. I use store bought dough with fresh ingredients. Recently, I have tried several different brands of dough. Here is what I have found.
Pillsbury Dough (+) Keeps for a long time. (-) It has that canned Pillsbury taste.


Safeway Select Brand (Vons/Pavilions) (+) This dough tastes good (-) It is hard to shape with a rolling pin and cooks up thick.  If you like Chicago style pizza, you will like this one.


Trader Joe's (+) This dough tastes great and it is easily manipulated with a rolling pin. (-) It goes bad quickly. If you like New York style pizza, you will like this one.



** Pizza tip**  Before you add anything to the pizza dough, brush the dough with a light layer of EVOO and truffle salt.  It makes the pizza crust extra yummy.
