Left dough cross stacked

[P_Lev20]

My manager left the dough trays cross stacked over night. I put some water on the dough this morning and stacked them and left them out of the walk-in. Has anybody had this problem and how did the dough turn out?

Thanks for your help.

You will be ok, unfortunately I have made the same mistake a couple of times. I would take the dough out of the cooler a couple of hours before you are going to use it and spray it with water. The dough will remoisturize and work just fine.

After spraying the tops, stack the boxes so the heat can help soften the tops without any moisture escaping.

You can also go buy some cheesecloth and moisten it, and lay it on the dough to help retain the moisture until ready to use.

We use damp paper towels (Bounty).
