to give out something, typically in reference to
moneyOriginated from when gangsters in the 1920s went to Italian restaurants and payed
money by hiding it in breadsticks. They would then hand out the breadsticks (baked dough) to people, hence "dough it out".
Some sources claim that Jesus also was the OG (original gangster) when he multiplied and then doughed out bread to the people. Moses also
may have done this earlier with manna, but manna is questionably doughesque, so the credit mostly goes to Jesus. This comes from the
Book of Dough that was excluded from the Bible during the Council of
Trent due to its relation to the Jewish Mafia.
