Hi everyone,
Peter Reinhart gave a wonderful description of how to retard pizza dough
overnight in the refrigerator.... in a plastic trash bag.
Please be aware that a good many of these bags are meant for garbage/refuse
and are not food safe - in fact they may contain insecticide - or other
non-desired chemicals and alas, there is no warning on the bag. I am not
sure I want to rise my dough in one of those bags.
There are food-safe plastic bags used by supermarkets - however, I am not
sure which member of the supermarket staff would be able to advise you if
their stock fits the -safe- category. My guess is that the bags used for
holding produce should be okay- but again I am not positive.
For the time being I am using a Freezer Bag made by ZipLoc -
Do any of you know of other bags that are okay for food usage?
