Notes
Medium heat with the lid on — crisps the bottom and melts the cheese at the same time. Both are required.
Shred mozzarella from a block — pre-shredded won't melt properly.
Don't overfill toppings — single, even layer only.
Flash freeze flat 2 hours before stacking. Skipping causes sticking.
From frozen: Cold skillet, olive oil drizzle, lid on, medium heat, 6–8 minutes.
Refrigerator: Cooked pizzas up to 3 days. Reheat in skillet for crispy crust.
