Pizza Today - June 2021 - 21
S
ummer is coming quickly, and
with Covid restrictions across
the country loosening and the
number of vaccinations rising, that
means dining rooms will be opening
and off-site events will be returning.
Pizza trailers and catering events will
be in full swing, and ensuring your
product and dough is consistent and
cool will be the ultimate challenge.
Taking on mobile catering and
events can be tricky at best. Every time
you think you nail down the details in
advance, when that day comes there
always seems to be a change in plans or
an unexpected hurdle. We are always
looking for the best ways to control our
environment and anything outside your
normal will test your knowledge and
skill as a pizza maker. Here are a few
ideas on how to manage your dough in
unanticipated conditions.
Before you prepare for any event,
020_PIZ_0621_KK.indd 21
you will always want to know a few
things first. If you are using an oven
given to you by the venue, what kind of
oven is it? You will want to know the
temperature it can reach as well as if it
is a home style, convection oven or if it
is a pizza oven. This will dictate what
kind of dough you will be making and
the style you will be serving. Next, you
will want to check the weather and
then pray the weather app is accurate or
at least darn close. Depending on where
you live, there could be four seasonal
changes in a day, so having a backup
plan is best.
Depending on the weather there are
a few things to consider: how much
yeast? Bulk fermentation? Starter?
When will I ball my dough? If the day
looks to be on the cooler side, adding a
bit more yeast than normal could help
activate your dough a little quicker
before the day of the event. Under-
standing that there is such a thing as
too much yeast, I would recommend
upping by a quarter percent and no
more. On the day of the event getting
your dough to a warm temperature
can be a trickier scenario. I have been
in situations where it looked like I
messed up my dough because it did
not rise or used dead yeast, but it was
because the environment was just too
cold. It slowed down the yeast activity
to a point of hibernation. Warming the
dough up as fast as possible was my
only solution. If you are ever so lucky to
be in a place that has heating, crank up
the thermostat. Investing in a warming
cabinet that is easily transported is a
great way to warm up dough quickly as
well as maintain the temperature and
humidity. If extra equipment is not in
the budget, then something I do quite
often is moving the dough in front of
the oven and rotating the stack
