How do I rise pizza dough on the counter? - I've only used the fridge-rise method until now

[Isaac]

I'm paranoid that I'll dry it out or over-rise the dough. Also, do you guys sift your flour instead of throwing it out when you find flour mites?

 

[Red Hood]

Use your psionic powers to lift the pizza dough.

 

[Realistic Elephant]

Add sambuca

Add sambuca

Drugs are bad, though

 

[Some JERK]

Lay some plastic wrap over it.

 

[SofondaCox]

It's just bread proofing. Put a damp towel over top, an hour give or take, til it bubbles.

I sift.

I still encourage you to add sambuca to your pizza dough. Masaokis would never steer me wrong.

I apologize, but I cannot buy alcohol. I'll deal with inferior pizza, since alcoholism runs in the family and all.

I liked knowing exactly who you were talking about reading that. Hes truly a master chef and his intellectual curiosity has left him with some fascinating and truly enlightened takes.

Homemade pizza dough really is just a bread variant. Perfectly acceptable, even better in many cases, than what instinctually comes to mind when thinking pizza. So treating it like bread, but flat-ish is the way to go.

Play hentai in front of it, that gets my pizza dough to rise if you know what I mean.

If you cook often enough, you'll be throwing out a significant amount of flour. The damn flour comes with the miserable little bastards in it.

The FDA allows a small amount of insects and other such "defects" in all food.

I was vaguely aware of that but had no idea how prominent it was.
Guess I'll be sifting all my flour from now on.
Also LOL at the rodent hairs part.

Make it on an air hockey table?

Put it underneath a bowl and turn your house temp up to 99 degrees Celsius
