    Looks fantastic.  Are you making  your own dough and sauce in bulk and then freezing some for future pizza cooking or is it always done the day of?  I'd like to make a big batch of both and keep them around, but don't want to sacrifice the freshness either.

    Good q.
    I use the ooni far less than i should due to the 3 days needed to make the crust i generally make.
    If freezing is a real option this would make much easier.

    I don't freeze anything, except left over sauce. The dough I make only takes about 3 hours from start to finish.

    Fme--what recipe do you use?

    Yeah I usually freeze extra sauce when i make pasta so I'm going to do the same for pizza.  I'll follow your lead and keep the dough fresh, although it sure would be nice to freeze a bunch of dough for later use.  Maybe I'll try it with a small amount and i'll report back if its still edible.

    Napolenta from the pizza bible.  There is a starter to make one day and the next day (or later the first day) you use it to start the dough.  Believe it proofs for 2 days.

    Dough is amazing, just takes time.

    Im interested in 3 hour dough for the ooni....

    You can get great results freezing dough.  I do it all the time if I have extra dough i'm not using.  Ball it up, seal it up and freeze it.  Just be sure to let it thaw and come to room temp before using and it should be almost perfect.  The yeast don't die in the fridge, they just go dormant and will wake up again once back to room temp.
    Honestly, I'd say it comes back to about 90% the quality of a fresh dough.

    Awesome feedback and very good news.  That will make the process so much easier to make a bunch at once.  Thanks.

    Yeah, it's nice to have some extra frozen doughs ready whenever you want a pizza.  And yes, there are great 3 hour fresh recipes that will work out, but I'd take a frozen dough that had a long, cold ferment, or a frozen sourdough over the 3 hour.  Just my opinion.  I just prefer the low yeast, long fermented doughs over the high yeast, 3 hour proofers.

    First of, that pizza points to the supporting the pointless and cruel slaughter of animals, and second - there is like what... two ingredients on that...

    ... so I prefer the Swedish one.

    For the record, I would take the pepperoni one

    1st time since Around last Thanksgiving, shot a 90, not great but was nice being out there in near 80 degree weather. Wanted to play out in SoCal during the shows, but was licking my wounds in between dates and by the pool was more enticing 🤣
