How to Reheat Pizza?

Heat a heavy skillet to medium and add a drop of oil. Place the pizza in the skillet, and cook for 2 minutes, until the bottom is crisp.

Turn the heat to low and add 2 drops of water along the edge of the skillet, not next to the pizza. Cover with a lid for 1 minute, until the cheese is melted.

Of course if you’re in a hurry and don’t want to go to the effort, just zap it in the microwave for 30 seconds.

How Long Does Margherita Pizza Keep?

Version 1: Keep this pizza fresh in the refrigerator for 4-5 days by storing it in a sealed ziploc bag. If you want to freeze it, let it cool down first, then place it on a baking dish in a single layer and freeze for about an hour. After that, transfer all the pieces into a ziploc bag. It will stay good in the freezer for up to 3 months.
