Baker’s Quality Pizza Crusts® Par-Baked Crusts are docked and ready to sauce and top. Like the fresh sheeted crusts, they are yeast leavened and just as flavorful. This is a distinctive thin, crispy style crust when cooked that is fully proofed for full flavor and allows for easy handling and immediate service.
HANDLING/BAKING INSTRUCTIONS
Keep frozen, but thaw at least one hour prior to use. Thaw the crusts in a plastic bag so they don’t dry out. In a case of crusts, there is waxed paper between every 10 crusts so that a portion of a case can easily be removed for thawing. Once thawed, store the crusts at 34° - 40° and use from the refrigerator. There is no need for proofing and par-bakes can be held under refrigeration for 4-5 days. To prevent breakage, avoid dropping the case of crusts on the floor or shelf.
When ready to prepare a pizza, remove one crust from the pack, place it on a screen or pizza peel and make the pizza. This crust comes pre-docked but, to avoid excessive bubbling while baking, the crust may be docked again with a dough docking roller prior to preparing the pizza. The crust will bake best in either a slate deck oven or a conveyor oven, both set at a temperature between 450° and 550°. Temperatures are guidelines and will vary depending on the performance of each oven. Your pizza is fully cooked when the toppings are done and the crust is a golden brown on the bottom.
