the year 2000 the pizza giant made a commercial jump and partnered with the makers of a Russian
proton rocket to display their trademark logo on the fuselage their wanton Wanderlust didn't stop
there in 2001 Pizza Hut worked tirelessly with the Russian space agency to develop the world's first
frozen pizza to be eaten in space copy that I'll stick to making pizza after the tastiest
testing anyone can do Russian food scientists astrophysicists and Pizza Hut developed a pie
with a crispy crust gooey cheese savory sauce and salami salami but where's the pepperoni
well believe it or not pepperoni wasn't strong enough to survive the testing process and retain

in the six inch wide oven aboard the iconic vessel the consensus it was the best pizza ever eaten

throughout the Great Depression and two world wars however in 1940 a transition happened that
would change Pizza forever refrigerated Foods were already very popular because of their incredible
ability to keep longer than Fresh Foods who knew but during the 40s personal freezers became
commercially available and suddenly refrigerated Foods were given an even colder shoulder and
became frozen foods naturally the already Mega Popular Pizza easily made the jump in 1950 and
it's been in freezers ever since that's right as of 2023 frozen pizza is 73 years old to give you

the taste of Frozen authenticity the best oven for a frozen pizza isn't an oven at all who's there
it was gone just like love the next time you cook a frozen pizza don't use the oven use an air fryer
at one time there were basically only two ways to cook a frozen pizza bake it in the oven or throw
it in the microwave but now we've been blessed with highly capable air fryers often faster than
using a traditional oven air fryers can cook almost anything you can think of chicken pork
chops steak and even unconventional items like fruit and vegetables or dumplings and pierogies
one food item that is ideal for an air fryer is a slice of pizza reheating a leftover slice is
great but things really start to shine when your air fryer is large enough to fit a frozen pizza
then the magic happens able to cook food far more efficiently crispy in the crust perfectly cooking
the pepperoni to Perfection and propelling the ooey gooey cheese into just the right amount
of flex air fryers or a frozen pizzas new best friend the most popular frozen pizza in Japan
or 75 years old they always down 12 years old Japan is Iconic for its effervescent pop culture
especially when it comes to food with random convenience store packets of dried Ramen being far
superior to any that are offered in the west you'd expect their frozen pizza selections to be just as
good and at the very least extremely diverse you had made me tornado while Popular Pizza varieties
in Japan include the basic cheese and tomato Margarita Pizza other popular toppings include
mayonnaise corn rice cakes called Mochi and spicy Cod Roe yup fish eggs and you thought anchovies

Rises to the pizza crust challenge Pizza I think you've dialed the wrong number man I don't
know the frozen pizza people were propelled into a world of quick and easy pies however the one
thing that almost always seemed to suffer was the pizza crust this was accepted as the cost
of convenience even when it comes to restaurant pizza the crust can be hit or miss for True Pizza
Lovers the crust is a big part of the pie eating experience some eat pizza crust first some like
a stuffed crust and there are those who don't eat the crust at all and when it comes to frozen
pizza the crust often comes out over baked or simply rock hard however in 1995 pizza crust
lovers were saved by DiGiorno's brand of frozen pizza a special type of crust was introduced that
would rise much like regular dough while baking from Frozen this completely changed the frozen
pizza game lovers of crust no longer had to suffer and those who usually avoided the crust probably
still left it sitting on the side of the plate taste test more great videos just tap or click
