Pro Chef Secrets for the Ultimate Pizza
-
The Crust is Key: For an extra-crispy, restaurant-style crust, bake your pizza directly on a preheated pizza stone or steel.
-
The Double-Layer Cheese: Cheese on both sides of the toppings acts as “glue,” holding everything in place when you take a bite.
-
Keep Toppings Crisp: Always add cold, fresh toppings like lettuce, tomatoes, and sour cream AFTER baking. This preserves their texture and freshness.
-
The Flavor Twist: Use shredded rotisserie chicken tossed in taco seasoning. Swap the red sauce for a layer of queso fresco or a cilantro-lime crema.
Serving, Storing & The Leftover Strategy
-
Serve: This is a hands-on, knife-and-fork kind of pizza. Serve it right on the cutting board for a casual, shareable feast.
-
Storing Leftovers: Store any uneaten, topped slices in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. The fresh toppings will wilt, but the flavors will still be great.
-
Reheating: Reheat slices in a toaster oven or conventional oven at 350°F to keep the crust crispy. The microwave will make the crust soft.
