Here's The Best Cooking Temperature For Pizza In The Oven

An undercooked pizza will have chewy, soggy crust and can contain pathogens. This most commonly happens because people cook it at too low of a temperature.
The standard pizza-baking temperature for a normal oven is about 500°F, although 450 or 475°F is usually alright. You'll need to preheat the oven for at least 20 minutes.
Then, bake the pizza for up to ten minutes until the crust is crispy and the cheese has properly melted. Afterward, your leftover pizza should stay fresh for four days.
