To roll out Publix pizza dough, start by lightly flouring your surface, then use a rolling pin to flatten the dough evenly from the center outward.
Make sure the dough is at room temperature for easier handling. If it’s too cold, it can be tough to work with.
Flour your rolling pin as needed to prevent sticking. A generous dusting will help keep the dough from clumping.
Aim for about a quarter-inch thickness for a good crust. You can always adjust for your preference later.
If youβre making a thick crust, leave it slightly thicker. For thin crust, go as thin as you can without tearing.
As you roll, rotate the dough a quarter turn every so often. This helps achieve a more uniform shape.
Once you reach your desired thickness, transfer the dough to your pizza pan or stone.
If it shrinks back, let it rest for a few minutes before rolling out again.
Now your dough is ready for toppings and baking!
