Domino's reveals the method that makes every pizza slice perfect
Everyone loves to indulge in a takeaway every now and then - and it's usually made even better when there's leftovers the following morning. It has prompted pizza lovers to share their best methods to reheat pizza so it's just as good the next day - and Domino's has weight in on the topic. One Reddit user said: "Can we talk about reheating pizza? What's your method? My brother went out to dinner and came back with a whole pizza. \"Cast iron on the stove is my go to, deep dish or otherwise. I use very low heat and with the cover everything just kinda warms through. I suppose i could just use the oven but even if you put the pizza in as its heating it takes about the same amount of time. plus I don't have to run the oven which makes a difference in the summertime. With thinner pizzas i like to throw a little oil in at the end and crank up the heat. fries the crust up a little.\" 'I tried Lidl's own-brand range and one hidden gem is better than all other supermarkets' Scrambled eggs will be fluffier and creamier if you ditch milk for better alternative Commenting on his post, one user agreed with their method, adding: "I use the skillet myself. We like thin crust so the hot cast iron crisps the crust and an offset lid helps reheat the toppings. Just need a super hot pan and a couple of minutes to reheat." Whereas another user said:" I always eat the leftover pizza from lunch cold out of the fridge in the afternoon.

More info But this one time during winter I didn't feel like eating something cold, so I threw a couple of slices in the air fryer, because I didn't know how else to heat them up (and I refuse to microwave pizza). Boy, was I pleasantly surprised." Meanwhile another user simply said "air fryer is the way to go", while another opts for the microwave simply to save time. They said: "I microwave mine on very low heat for about 45 seconds to get the cheese to start melting. Then I finish off in a hot cast iron skillet to crisp the crust and warm further." A final user said: "Nothing comes close to an air-fryer-toaster-oven for ease, speed, and outcome." Sharing their expert opinion, Domino's explained the best way to reheat their pizza at home using the equipment you have to hand. A statement reads: "When it comes to reheating our pizza the next day, whether you're using an oven, air fryer, microwave, or even a frying pan, you’ll still enjoy the Domino's taste you know and love. For the best results, we recommend the oven, as it’s closest to how your pizza was originally baked. Pop it in at 190°C for 10–15 minutes and you’ll get crispy crusts and perfectly melty cheese."

Practical takeaways for reheating Domino's pizza
From the Reddit thread and Domino's guidance, there are a few practical patterns to note: - Cast iron hot pan with a lid crisps crust and warms toppings quickly. - Air fryers offer fast, convenient reheating with efficient crust texture. - Oven reheating at 190°C for 10–15 minutes yields crispy crusts and melty cheese as Domino's recommends. - Some people prefer finishing in a skillet after initial heating to balance speed and texture. - Microwave reheating is mentioned but often paired with a follow-up crisp in another appliance to improve texture.
