    Can I half cook them then finish off later , to save on faff ?

    Ay?

    Home made Pizza doesn’t take long to cook.

    Just make them all in advance and then cook them when you are ready ?

    Why not just prepare them all beforehand then fully cook at the time? At about 8/10 minutes cooking time, you would need to be cooking one hell of a lot that trying to half the cooking time is going to be of help to you!

    We always make too much dough and prep too much toppings so do just that OP.

    On the pizza stone for a minute, toppings and all. Then leave to cool & freeze for a rainy day. Cook from frozen, nom nom nom.

    Oh, and top tip if you’re cooking on a stone – baking paper underneath the pizza with a dab of flour on means you can swap from one pizza to the next super quickly when rattling of a line of them

    If making in advance can I make them fully or will it lead to soggy bottom

    We’ve never had soggy bottoms (snigger). I propose a pizza feast trial and error session. Any excuse for more pizza.

    Tinybits, we tried that but found too much heat was lost from cooking the previous pizza. We had better success putting the stone back in the oven between pizzas, getting it back to temp. May be we have a crappy stone.

    Controversial to some but i’ve ditched the stone & won’t be going back – best advice anyone ever gave me (not just pizza related either), just pap the fresh base on a scorching hot big-old heavy frying pan for a minute or two (gas hob is your friend here) chuck toppings on then finish under a bollock searing hot grill for a couple of more minutes – ta-daaa!

    All you need to do is give the pan a quick wipe with a lightly oiled bit of kitchen roll between pizzas and you’re rocking. I was a cynic at first but it works, believe me – a big old heavy cast iron pan on a gas hob at full pelt will get hotter than your oven ever will.

    Yep, but it would be death for me if I could only get one pizza at a time out to my family. I can get 4 tiles at the same time into my oven cranked up to 220 which is easily hot enough

    Goes back to drinking beer and making pizza…

    Buy Uuni pizza oven. Cook pizzas faster than they can top the bases – 90 seconds usually.

    Sprinkle some of those magic dust MSG on your pizza to make it taste even better. Try it.
