Leftover pizza makes for a delicious next-day breakfast, lunch or snack. While many people enjoy cold pizza straight from the fridge, reheating pizza can bring it back to its former glory – if done right.
First, step away from the microwave. Microwaving may seem like a handy, and quick, reheating method but it will render your pizza unevenly heated with a rubbery crust that quickly becomes too stiff to bite.
Some people believe that the stovetop is actually the best way to reheat pizza. That may be true, but if you’re looking for a quick and effective way, reheat pizza in an air fryer.
An air fryer is basically a mini convection oven. While a regular oven takes longer to heat up for the simple task of reheating pizza, an air fryer can do the same task in about a minute.
