What’s the best way to cook a pizza ?

There are three ways that you can achieve a crispy crust.
- Pizza oven: A
pizza oven can achieve higher temperatures than your kitchen oven, they havepizza stones that heat up and allows you to cook yourpizza in a matter of just a few minutes. You know those crispy charredpizza crusts that you get from goodpizza restaurants? They are all made in a pizza oven, and it’s our number one recommendation for the best pizzas; we have to warn you, though, if you get one, it will be quite addictive!
- Pizza stone: A
pizza stone will fit in your kitchen oven, the stone will heat up, and you place yourpizza directly onto the stone. This means that your crust will cook evenly, and you’ll get a good level of crispiness.
- Pizza pan: A
pizza pan has holes in it, this allows the heat to reach parts of yourpizza crust. You won’t get the same level of crispiness as you will from apizza oven orpizza stone, but it’ll be better than if you used a baking sheet.
In an ideal world, we’d all have a pizza oven, but that’s not always possible; we’d opt for the
Do I cook spinach before putting it on pizza ?
Yes, you will need to cook the spinach for this recipe.
Simply blanch really quickly, or alternatively, you can use frozen spinach.
Fresh spinach or frozen spinach?
We’ve used frozen baby spinach in our recipe; the thing you need to make sure you do with either fresh or frozen spinach is to squeeze it so that it doesn’t have any water in it.
If you don’t squeeze it enough, you’ll end up with a soggy bottom, and nobody wants that do they?
If you’re using fresh spinach, simply blanch it and squeeze out all the water; sauteed spinach will also work.
Can you put uncooked spinach on pizza ?
Yes, you can use uncooked spinach, but we don’t like it for this recipe as it doesn’t give the same results.
If you were to use fresh spinach, then make sure to place it under the cheese.
