A Pizza Dough Trick

Problem: the only dough we had was a 16-ounce ball in the freezer, hard as a rock. So we did what we always do when we have a pizza question: We texted our friend Anthony Terranova, who also happens to be President of the legendary Arthur-Avenue-based Terranova Bakery. (Sometimes I can’t believe how lucky I am.) 

He told us to place the frozen dough in a plastic ziploc in a bowl of warm water and to keep replenishing the water to make sure it stayed warm. It thawed in about an hour and guess what was on the table by 7:00!? A perfect pizza.
