In general, fresh pizza dough can last for up to 3 days at room temperature, as long as it's stored in an airtight container. But, if you store it in the fridge, it can last for up to 5 days - talk about a pizza party! Just make sure to give it a good knead before using it, to get that dough nice and smooth.
Now, you might be thinking, what about freezing the dough? Well, let me tell you, it's a game-changer! Frozen pizza dough can last for up to 3 months, and all you need to do is thaw it overnight in the fridge, or let it sit at room temperature for a few hours. It's like having a pizza party in your freezer, just waiting to happen!
But, here's the thing: even if your fresh pizza dough is still within its shelf life, it might not always be at its best. You see, yeast is a living, breathing thing, and it can get a bit sluggish over time. So, if you notice your dough isn't rising as much as it used to, or it's developed an off smell, it's probably time to say goodbye.
