Which Frozen Pizza Actually Tastes Like the Real Thing? Round 2

Which Frozen Pizza Actually Tastes Like the Real Thing? Round 231 Aug36 min

Today on Chewed Up, Michael Symon, Carla Hall, and Clinton Kelly are back for a second frozen pizza taste test, putting six frozen pizzas to the test to find out which ones are actually worth keeping in your freezer. They compare crust, chew, sauce, cheese, pepperoni, fresh versus dried herbs, and whether any of them can come close to the kind of pizza they actually want to eat.

As they work through the lineup, some pizzas are too doughy, too sweet, under-seasoned, or overloaded with dried herbs, while others surprise them with a crisp, properly blistered crust and fresh mozzarella. By the end, the group debates whether better dough or better toppings matter more when choosing the winner.

Then Clinton makes his go-to homemade Caesar salad dressing with garlic, anchovy paste, Dijon, Worcestershire, lemon, olive oil, Parmesan, and plenty of black pepper - the perfect side for pizza night. Along the way, they talk favorite New York slices, tableside dining, nostalgic snacks, pantry staples, and why pizza and salad will always beat doubling down on starch.
