how do you get that quintessential delivery/frozen pizza taste if you make a pizza at home? whats their secret? ive made pizza before from scratch from real ingredients, but it didnt taste the same. i then tried again using the cheapest canned crap i could find, but it still didnt taste like delivery or frozen pizza

whats the fucking secret

The more heat, the better. If you don't have your own pizza oven, then use a pizza stone or a cast iron.

Fucking CHRIST. How many pizza threads?!

Don't use cheddar, prolly just use mozzarella only. This is the 'blistering' that comes from good pizzas.

This. You need about 500 F to make a pizza. Most frozen shit calls for 350-400...bullshit.

A stone works, as said by this poster, but it needs to be hot as fuck.

Just buy dough from a pizza joint and get some canned tomato sauce. Add lots of basil, sugar, garlic powder, oregano. Use a mozz provolone cheese mixture. Cook at 475 or higher. Use a greased up pizza screen, too.

Yeah just say you'll give a dollar or 2 per dough ball, it's water, yeast, salt and flower, costs like 20 cents per dough ball to make

stones are for lame autists
Sick cunts use pizza steels.

still won't make your pizza taste as bad as pizza hut though.

I'm pretty sure you want that yeast that you don't have to proof. I don't remember what it's called, but it does seem to be the quality dip you're looking for. Look around for it. It's the same shit that's in frozen garbage.
inb4 instant yeast that's something else.

what you're tasting there is added grease and msg, alongside preservatives

Not shitposting--
In my experiments: Tony's Diginorno's Red Baron:
Exactly as described on box: brunt crust, undercooked middle.

Details:
The crust seems to bake fast as fuck
While nothing else cooks properly
Raw middle, center...burnt crust.

Solution:
While frozen, scrape everything off.
Separate, then add back on sparingly.
Let thaw for about 10-20 minutes, near stove.
Stove should be 15 degrees hotter than instructed.

Put in hypothetically for 20 minutes
Around the 5-8 minute countdown, you'll see the crust done
You're aiming for crunch throughout, not burnt-uncooked
Take out; let cool.

Honestly...
The cheese WILL STILL NOT BE FULLY MELTED.
But the crust will be perfect.

Take heat gun...yes, fuckers...HEAT GUN.
Manually melt cheese after oven baking.
DONE.

Try buying and making this. It has the requisite chemicals to give you that flavor and texture you crave. Just add some extra super greasy low quality pepperoni and/or sausage. You don't even need a stone just a cookie sheet.
