Creating a top quality pizza

By Dunkan Bakshmidt


More than 90% of US citizens consume a slice every month, but do we get what we are looking for? What is it? Pizza, the industry that produces more than $30 bn. on a scheduled basis. So did you know if the piece of pizza your consuming is up to scratch?

Isn't it what all pizza lover's are searching for? A quality pizza! So let's have a look at what makes a quality pizza. A top quality pizza is a pizza that produces 3 unique qualities. First is appearance, if it does not look great then how does one think it is going to taste? The appearance of a quality pizza should have correct topping distribution. This means toppings over the whole pizza, no center loading.

Center loading is when the great majority of your toppings are in the middle of your pizza, this often ends up in a doughy pizza. Another side of correct toping distribution is the amount of toppings on the pizza. This suggests that the more pizza toppings you order, the less you get. It sounds tough, but it really isn't. Please read on and I'll reveal why.

The baking of the pizza is the second unique quality of st. Kilda pizza appearance. The bake of a pizza is important, consumer's aren't looking out for a doughy pizza or a pizza with a burnt appearance, consumer's desire their pizza baked ideal! Here is a small insight on how they achieve the right bake of a pizza. The bake of a pizza is dependent upon a couple of things, proper bake time, temperature, and toppings. Pizza shops spend countless hours each year perfecting the proper bake time and temperature. Time and temperature should be checked on a consistent basis because they usually need an adjustment tweak here and there. The corrections could be down to the in store temperature, weather, cleanness of the stove or thickness of toppings.

I suspect the most significant facet of the bake is toppings! Every pizza topping has a correct amount that should be placed on a pizza, but when you order multiple toppings, it might be not possible to put that single topping amount on the pizza simply because it would not cook correctly. To offer you a visible, think about this: An order is placed for a pepperoni pizza and shall we say that the correct topping spec. For a 1 topping pepperoni pizza is 50 pepperonis. With the right quantity of pepperonis on that pizza, it would cook properly. Now lets say there's an order placed for a 4 topping pizza; pepperoni, sausage, onion, and mushrooms. If a pizza shop utilised the 1 topping spec for all 4 toppings, the pizza would be to thick to cook properly. The result would either be a doughy pizza or an exceedingly well done pizza as the pizza shop would need to bake it longer to try and cook the pizza the whole way thru. In order to have a correct bake on a 4 topping pizza, the pizza shop would need to scale back the glaze amount around 20%.
