Saw these in the freezer section of Morrisons yesterday for the first time, I know it will upset the purists who insist you should make your own. Personally used the Northern Dough frozen ones in the past and they make a perfectly acceptable pizza base indoors or outdoors and getting them out the freezer is so much easier if short of time and can't make your own imho

Not tried them yet, but will do in the coming weeks, hopefully on a par with the Northern Dough ones and half the price of them.

Made from wheat sourdough, perfectly stretchy to create a deliciously crisp, freshly baked pizza base

The Best Sourdough Pizza Pucks are part of our premium collection, created using the finest ingredients to bring you a little bit of luxury every day

No artificial colours or flavours, Suitable for Vegans

Ingredients Wheat Flour, Water, Rapeseed Oil, Fermented Wheat Flour, Yeast, Salt, Sugar, Flour Treatment Agent (Ascorbic Acid)

    I guess the angle on this is its sourdough which is not that simple to just knock up even from fresh ingredients, dont you need a starter yeast thing which is probably why ive never made any.

    Supermarkets just add a sourdough flavour to their products, they still use yeast etc to make it rise

Home made is still the best way to go, but these are actually OK if you fancy a quick blast on the Ooni at short notice.


    Ban this person immediately especially if they cooking this in an Ooni !!!

    I'm not a dough snob but I couldn't bring myself to cook something like this even on a pizza stone in the oven, especially when you can thrown together a home made dough in 15 minutes which will be miles better than this.
    I have a beer dough recipe which is ready to go in the pizza oven in about an hour

    I have a mate who spends 24 hours on his dough

    Anyways back to the deal - thanks OP, will look them out if I am passing a Morrisons, Tesco sold a frozen sourdough a good while ago, but never found it again :-(

    Working in PizzaExpress and one dough ball cost us 8 pence. Flour costs 60 pence, add water, salt, a pinch of sugar and yeast and you get about 8-9 dough balls for a quid.

    I did say this is not for the pizza purist, and to stop reading if it was going to upset/offend you.

    What about steaks with Jack Daniels? With flame flaring out the from of the Ooni?

    Is that a no-no too?

    And your mate? Tell him he takes himself too serious! It's just a pizza! (edited)

    I either use an Air tight container, cover with a damp tea towel or paint with olive oil while defrosting. Although I only tend to use my own frozen balls

    15 minutes doesn't allow much time for it to rise

    Aldi sold single ones like this last year, where you cooked them in a frying pan. Was pretty decent for a quick ‘fresh’ pizza. Wonder if they’ll bring them back for summer

    Any Pizza conniseur knows a good dough takes minimum 48 hours to make!!

    In case anyone is wondering - I've got an Igneus Bambino that I bought before Ooni was a thing. Was at Carfest and my wife and kid deserted me leaving me outside their stall for a good half an hour.....that was long enough for me to get sucked in and spend some of my bonus I had just got!

    I don't the snobbery of buying these, I have personally tried the northern dough and are great for kids. Yeah if you have the time and effort make your own. But in a pinch these are a good substitute. Heat for the price aswel.
  15. Notfer's avatar
    I've used a few different ones, and have found the Northern Dough ones the best, with the exception of homemade, but again that's down to time, and space.

    I'll be giving these a try though, and can't grumble at the price either! Heat

    Is it snobbery to make something yourself because it is a fraction of the cost of buying pre-made?
  18. lola23's avatar
    I'm a big fan of the Northern Dough & Munch bases, so def be giving these a try.
    Hpoefully better than Asda's which I threw away after 1 bite

    Again, not for the pizza purist, so stop reading if this upsets/offends you

    A pre-rolled 12" base, that is rolled up in grease proof paper, which just needs to be unrolled and you are ready to go!

    They are however quite thick base an I personally prefer a thin base, so I flour the worktop and roll them out a lot thinner, use a 12" dinner plate as a template and run a pizza cutter around the plate to make a perfect base.

    If you are doing several, you then have enough excess for an extra base

    Obviously no good if you want that authentic, rustic type base, but to each there own or each to their own (whichever you prefer).

    Tesco does the same thing and is nicer than Aldi version. I cut them in half and roll them paper-thin with an edge over the pizza tray so they rise lovely with a satisfying crunch on the edge.

    What dough recipes do you recommend? Can wheat chappati flour be used?
  27. jrrrr's avatar
    I'm gonna be that guy and say if you go through all the effort of buying fresh ingredients, firing up the pizza oven whether it be a ooni or bbq of even an oven why not make the dough. It's like someone buying loads of fishing equipment and then letting someone else catch the fish for them.

    But I suppose these have there purpose, the frozen ooni dough which comes in masses of plastic and cardboard is ridiculous. (edited)

    You could just stick with the beer without the dough bit, seems a reasonable compromise. Have a guinness or two if you still feel you need a meal though.

    The main element to Sourdough here is the distictive flavour it has so shouldn't really matter. Italians will use yeast in their dough to make them rise.
