The ideal method is to mist with water and then thaw in a sealed container at room temperature for a couple of hours and then transfer to fridge for 24-72 hours.
Remove from fridge in time to double in size and reach room temperature before you want to cook – 4-6 hours depending on ambient temperature and how much they have proved in the fridge.
If you have forgotten to thaw overnight, it is still possible to thaw and prove at ambient temperature, this will take around 12-14 hours depending on how warm the area is and which dough you are using.
Top Tip! Learn more about the cold fermentation process, allowing your frozen sourdough pizza dough balls to prove slowly in the fridge for up to three days.
