How to Reheat Pizza: The Ultimate Guide for Crispy, Delicious Slices
Reheating pizza is easy in theory, but anyone who's done it is aware of the struggle—microwaving turns it rubbery, oven-reheated slices get too dry, and stovetop methods can be hit-or-miss. Imagine having a method to return that freshly-out-the-pizzeria flavor to your reheated pie, though. Say hello to Pacuzzi®—the key to perfectly heated pizza every time!
Here in this guide, we’re going to walk you through the best methods to reheat a pizza, their advantages and disadvantages, and why Pacuzzi is the game-changer for every pizza enthusiast.
Popular Pizza Reheating Techniques (And Their Flaws)
1. The Microwave Technique (Fast but Flimsy)
Pros: Quick, convenient, easy.
Cons: Sogs up the pizza and makes it chewy owing to inbalanced heat.
Hack: Putting a cup of water in the microwave is a help, though it won’t revive crispiness.
2. The Oven Method (Crispy but Longer Cooking Time)
Pros: Crisps up the crust.
Cons: Puts you in for at least a 10-15-minute time-out to get oven-ready again and sometimes overdoes cheese and toppings resulting in overcooked pizza.
Hack: Set oven to 375°F, put pizza on a baking pan, and heat for 8-10 minutes.
3. The Air Fryer Method (Crispy but Not for All)
Pros: Quick and efficient for a crispy crust.
Cons: People without air fryers won’t be using it, and pieces get over crispy or even burned.
4. The Skillet Method with Steam (The Winner in Every Respect)
Pros: Crispy bottom, melty cheese, and speedy results.
Cons: Difficult to get just the right amount of moisture—unless you use Pacuzzi!
