To make restaurant-quality pizza at home, it's important to choose the right oven rack. Expert Michael Forbes from AEG UK emphasizes that the middle shelf of a traditional oven provides the best results for even cooking. A pizza stone, preheated and used either on the middle or bottom shelf, helps to create a crispy crust. The ideal cooking temperature ranges between 240-250°C, with cooking times being 7-9 minutes for thin crust and up to 12 minutes for thick crust.
Placing pizza on the middle shelf achieves an even cook, while bottom shelf may yield a crispier crust, though it risks over-browning.
Using a hot pizza stone helps hold and evenly distribute heat for a pizzeria-style pizza, essential for achieving a perfect balance of bubbling cheese and a crispy crust.
