Dough can be refrigerated up to three (3) to four (4) days for later use if desired. Simply remove dough from pan and place into an oiled bowl, turn dough over to oil top and cover tightly. Or, put dough into an oiled plastic bag and seal. Check dough daily and punch down if needed. When ready to use, shape, rise and bake as recipe directs.

To freeze dough, shape as recipe directs and wrap tightly. Dough can be frozen for up to one month. When ready to use, remove from freezer and thaw in refrigerator or at room temperature. Keep covered to prevent the dough from drying out. Once thawed, allow dough to rise until doubled in size, then bake as directed.
