When holding a pizza party, how to keep all those pizzas warm for the guests is a tough question. So many accidents can happen and make the piping hot pizzas turn ice cold and unappetizing. If you’re struggling with keeping your tasty pizzas at their ideal temperature, this article is made for you. Keep reading to master the easiest yet most effective methods to maintain pizza’s warmth. Use An Insulated BagAfter reading all these suggestions, you may wonder how the store can deliver your pizzas nice and warm without any heated seat or blanket. That’s because they have their own insulated bags/boxes. Insulated bags/boxes boast a multi-layered design with a thick foam in the middle, which effectively traps the heat inside the bag/box (2) . Because the heat can’t escape from the bag/box, the food stored inside can retain heat for a surprisingly long time. Fortunately, high-quality thermal bags/boxes are quite easy to come by. Keeping your pizza warm can’t get any easier than this, right? 5 Ways To Keep Pizza Warm For Indoor PartiesIt’s one thing that your pizzas come home toasty. Keeping them warm until all the guests arrive is another thing. Sometimes, your guests come across some troubles and can’t come on time, maybe two or three hours late. Another case is the party prolongs too much and the reserved pizzas all turn cold. Here are some options for you to save your pizzas’ temperature and the guests’ appetite. Use Aluminum FoilUse A Microwave
Compared to other options, using a microwave is not an ideal way. However, when push comes to shove, you have to use whatever you have. Check if your microwave is big enough for the pizza, then act accordingly to this instruction: Step 1: Place Your PizzaFind a ceramic, or microwave-safe, bowl and pour water until 2/3 of it is filled. Place the bowl inside the microwave. Next, set the pizza slices on a microwave-proof plate with some distance between them, then put the plate on the bowl. Step 2: Microwave The PizzaSet the power to only half the normal. The microwave process may take about one minute. You should set an interval in-between to control the process better. The important part of this way is the water bowl as it keeps the pizza from getting mushy and chewy. The result is not as delicious as those above methods, but if you want to have your pizza warm up fast, then this can be a good choice. 4 Methods To Keep Pizza Warm For Outdoor PartiesIt’s easy to heat your pizzas when having all the electronic appliances surround you. But with the parties in the open air, it’s another story. Let’s find out some convenient ways to keep your pizzas warm without harming nature.
Use A Portable OvenJust like its name, a portable oven allows you to bring it virtually anywhere, making it a perfect choice for a picnic. You can effortlessly carry and use it to heat the pizzas at the lunch picnic. It can also heat up the scrumptious side dishes for pairing with your pizza. Each oven brand has its own instruction, so be sure to read before using the stove. But most of the time, you can heat the pizza inside the oven and switch off the temperature without getting the pizza out to keep it warm. To preserve the temperature better, you can wrap the pizza slices in aluminum foil in advance. Then, preheat your oven. You may only need it at around 340-400°F, or else your pizza can get burnt. Put the pizza inside then pull out after 10-20 minutes. The best thing about the portable oven is you can easily find and order one online.
Use An Insulated BagI have mentioned this option as a way to keep the pizzas warm when driving home. It can be used as well with outdoor parties. This bag will preserve the heat when you and your guests enjoy other activities. The insulated bag has various sizes so you can choose yours big or small depending on how many pizzas you have. However, this bag isn’t able to keep the pizzas warm for a long time, so pay attention to the time if you intend to use it. Use A BlanketHere is another method already described above. If you don’t have an insulated bag, a blanket or a bath towel will be a suitable replacement. You can wrap as many towels as you have to retain the heat better. Use A CoolerStrange as it may sound, a cooler can actually warm your pizzas up. You just need to do as this guide tells. First, use foil paper to wrap two bricks. Next, heat them to 300°F in around 20 minutes. Put a newspaper on the cooler’s surface and the bricks on its floor. Lastly, place the pizza on the bricks. You can also use a blanket or a towel to prevent heat escape. FAQsEven with all the knowledge provided, I bet you still have some troubles left. Keep on reading because here I will answer some of the most frequently asked questions. What is a good temperature to keep pizza warm? Normally, the food safety temperature is 145°F. At this temperature, surviving bacteria will not grow again. However, if you consider the quality, 145°F is not enough. For a delicious fresh pizza, it should be maintained at 150-160°F with a relative humidity of 15-20%. Which temperature should a pizza be cooked at? To thoroughly bake a pizza, your oven needs to be at 400-450°F at least. This way, the temperature can go all the way through the cheese and tomato sauce. Cheese still melts at lower temperature but raw toppings will stay undercooked. Set the temperature higher and the pizza’s crust will get burnt. Can I reheat my pizza in its cardboard box? I actually would not recommend it. Even though cardboard boxes can not catch fire unless it’s over 300-400°F, the temperature still affects the coating and decoration outside. That would release some dangerous chemicals. What I suggest is taking the pizza slices out of the box, wrapping them in aluminum foil, and putting them in the oven. If you run out of time, then a skillet or a microwave can fix it quickly for you. How long can I keep my pizza warm in the oven? That depends on many factors. If you put your pizza in with its cardboard box, then it should not be inside longer than 30 minutes, even when the oven is switched off. For the aluminum foil and the pizza stone, people often don’t leave the pizza with them in the oven for too long. It’s because they can retain the heat even after getting out. How do pizza companies keep the pizza warm when delivering in cold weather? The secret lies in their insulated bag. This bag prevents the pizza from getting affected by the weather outside. Some stores even provide bags connected to an electrical source, making them preserve the heat even better. Further Tips To Keep Pizza WarmWith all the guidance above, I think you have acquired enough knowledge to serve your pizzas nicely hot at every party. However, there are still some small tips to enhance the pizza’s quality. You may not notice but any delivered pizzas will have some particular box flavor. You can use the pizza stone to get rid of it. But if you happen not to have one, then place the pizza onto a cooling rack, and put it on a baking sheet. Use foil to cover the sheet. If your pizza is going to sit in the oven for over an hour, put a cup of boiling water on the lower rack in just five minutes to increase the moisture inside. This way, your pizza will be moist enough but not too soggy. I hope all this information is helpful to you.
