Making your own pizza at home is a lot of fun, provided you have the right ingredients and a proper cookware. There are three things I find that is important to a great experience.
- Cast Iron Pizza Pan or Pizza Stone
- Freshly Shredded Mozzarella
- Good quality pizza dough
A good cast iron pizza pan or pizza stone will give you a nice soft doughy crust with a crispy outside. Once you learn how to use it well, you will be amazed how good it comes out.
A cast iron pan takes a little work to season it with oil when you first get the pan. Every so often you will need to do this again. Once this done, you want to avoid leaving it in water longer than you need to clean it. It will rust easily if not dried well or left in the sink.
A lot of grocery stores will sell fresh pizza dough that was made within the last day or two. It is very soft and cooks up fantastically well. You also want to buy a block of mozzarella instead of pre-shredded if you want the best quality cheese you can get in a typical grocery store.
The Lodge P14P3 Cast Iron Baking Pan will cost you around $30 on Amazon, but it is a great pan. The other alternative is a pizza stone which is just as good. The cast iron cookware is great to take camping, it is huge and is great for cooking breakfast on a campfire.
I have searched for one but have as yet not found one.
