How to Make the Best Pizza at Home

Hello, I am Pizza Mike and I am going to show you how to make a great Pizza, right in your own home. Just as good or better, than your neighborhood Pizzerias.

Pizza Mike's Tips

Start with Quality Ingredients

The foundation of any great pizza is fresh, high-quality ingredients. Use San Marzano tomatoes for your sauce, fresh mozzarella, and the best olive oil you can find. The ingredients are always fresh — that's the Pizza Mike promise.

The Dough is Everything

A great crust requires patience. Allow your dough to rise slowly — overnight in the refrigerator is ideal. This develops flavor and creates that perfect chewy-yet-crispy texture that made Pizza Mike's famous.

Less is More

Authentic Italian pizza isn't loaded with toppings. A few carefully chosen, high-quality ingredients will always outperform a pile of mediocre ones. Let each flavor shine.

High Heat is Key

A proper pizza oven reaches 800°F or more. At home, preheat your oven as high as it will go with a pizza stone inside for at least 45 minutes. The intense heat creates that beautiful char and crispy bottom.
