You need a 400 degrees (or so) oven to make good quality pizzas. Don't tell me you can fit one of these into your flat.

You misunderstand my comment. I'm saying go out for a pizza but there's no need to buy a 40$ pizza when it's basically the same as a 20$, since they both cost 5$ to make.

Pizza and burgers are ridiculously simple and there's not much variation in ingredients. Certainly not enough to justify a 100% price difference.

Where I live, the pizzas go from €10 (cheap) to €20 (expensive)

The €20 ones use dough imported from Italy, whereas the €10 ones definetly taste cheaper.

I cannot speak for burgers, but pizzas definetly do have range where I live - and I'm considering getting a nice quality oven at some point, to make the €20 types myself

I'm sorry, but importing dough from Italy instead of making it fresh locally, sounds either like a scam to charge more or just an inept pizza maker....

Maybe they are in Switzerland.

I don't really care where the pizza dough comes from, or who makes it - it's the tasty pizzas I keep coming back for.

In my route there I pass by 3-4 pizza places. When you got a good product, I wanna drive for it.

Nah mate.

I'd take the Pepsi challenge with cheap vs expensive pizza any day.

You need 800 to 900 F degrees for a good neapolitan pizza so it's not dry like most pizza in a regular oven. I'm into pizza dough making and can only do it when my friend let's me go over to his house lol

[–] Poiar 1 points 1 year ago

That tracks. 400 degrees is around 750 F

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

? Was this a joke? If so, quite low key

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Most ovens go up to 500F+, so get an oven steel and place on a lower rack, get a pizza stone and place on the upper rack about 8-12" above. Warm the oven on the highest for about an hour, heat trapped between the steel/stone can get well over 600+. That is enough to make a good pizza for home ovens.

400 degrees is 750 F
