Your Secret Weapon For Reheating Pizza Is A Spoonful Of Water

The best two methods for reheating your pizza with water's help involve the oven and the stovetop. As chef Chris Ancona told Food & Wine, start by preheating your oven to 475 F.
Place a pizza stone and an oven-safe dish of water (about ¼ cup) inside while it heats. Then, place the slices on the stone and cook anywhere from three to five or six minutes.
Alternatively, preheat the oven to 275 F, place the pizza slices on a baking sheet, spritz them with water from a spray bottle, cover the sheet with foil, and cook for 20 minutes.
If you’re using a stove, heat a cast-iron or non-stick skillet until it's searing hot, then add your slice on one side and about a tablespoon or two of water on the other side.
Place the lid on and let the water steam. Once the crust is crispy again and your toppings have regained a bit of life, you can remove the skillet from the stovetop and enjoy.
Air fryers are a decent option, too. You can reheat slices at 350 F for roughly five minutes after adding a couple of teaspoons of water to the bottom of the fryer basket.
