What Exactly is a Stuffed Pizza?
When
it comes to pizza, you really can’t go wrong with what you order. But let’s
face it, there are instances when certain kinds of pizza just sound better than
others. Sometimes, a thin crust pizza is what the doctor ordered,
with a light crust but an emphasis on the cheese and toppings. In other
circumstances, you might be craving a good dose of carbs, and you’ll want to
order a pizza with a more substantial crust. And in all honesty, more often
than not, a pizza that has both a prominent crust and a heavy focus on toppings
is the only thing that will quell a hungry appetite.
If
you more often than not fall into the third category, where you want a pie that
is the perfect marriage of crust and toppings, then a stuffed pizza is
absolutely the way to go. But maybe you’re not convinced that this is the pizza
for you. Maybe you’re just not exactly sure of what a stuffed pizza is! Allow
us to give you an education in order for you to make an informed pizza order.
But we promise we’ll be quick-we know you’re hungry!
Our
friends at Chow Hound say that stuffed pizza is known for
three features. First of all, the crust, which is solid, smooth, and has a
sweet and dry dough. This means that the crust will come out of the oven very
thick and dense (and delicious). Next, stuffed pizza is known for its generous
amount of both cheese and toppings (not a bad thing in our eyes). Finally, a
stuffed pizza has the sauce on top of the pizza rather than on top of the
crust.
Now,
we must mention that pizza lovers sometimes confuse a stuffed crust pizza with
a pan pizza. While ordering the alternative is certainly not a bad decision,
let us quickly clear up the key differences. According to Times Food, pan pizza uses a harder, fluffier
dough and is baked at a high temperature (over 500 degrees) in a deep dish pan
for about 15 minutes.
