💡Crust Chemistry & Oven Technique
- •Direct rack placement: For thin and tavern-style crusts, bake directly on the middle oven rack to maximize bottom heat transfer.
- •Detroit pan magic: Deep-dish square pies require included specialized baking trays that fry the edges in cheese oil.
- •Broiler finish: Give any frozen pizza a 60-second high broil at the end to blister the cheese and pepperoni cups.
