The ultimate frozen pizza test: supermarket product is just as good as the Italian one - "Everything is top"

The experienced pizza maker Kiju Pourahmad jumps over his shadow and tests frozen pizzas. One can completely convince the expert.

• Frozen pizza is one of the Germans' favorite ready meals.
• There are countless variations of the Italian specialty in the supermarkets.
• A pizza baker has now put some specimens to the test .

Munich - Almost every freezer in Germany has a copy. This makes it one of the most popular ready-made meals in Germany - frozen pizza . But how do you know from the huge selection in the freezer which is the best. A real pizza maker with his own pizzeria did the test for the private broadcaster Kabel Eins . Kiju Pourahmad inherited his business from his father and together they have over 40 years of experience. In the test, one copy failed completely and one even got the top rating.

Frozen pizza test on television: the Sparfuchs variant cannot convince

Even when the tide is low in your wallet at the end of the month, you don't necessarily have to go without pizza . In many supermarkets, the Italian specialty is available in a pack of three. In the test, such a copy costs only 83 cents. But it quickly becomes apparent that the salami on the pizza does not look like it should. “It's not a nice red color,” says Pourahmad . And when it comes to taste, the economy version can't score either. "Zero taste. Just fat ”, is the conclusion of the pizza maker . So in the end it is only enough for half a star out of five.

The inexpensive three-pack is then contrasted with a frozen pizza , one of which costs 3.99 euros. For this it should be shaped by hand. Pizza bakers Pourahmad holds the promise just as a marketing ploy. And when he takes it out of the oven, he first criticizes. “The mushrooms are not of good quality. They are still a little damp. "But when he tries a piece, he is quickly convinced. The quality - especially the ham is right - and so the expert even gives the maximum number of points - five stars.

Frozen pizza in the test: The exotic land in the middle

The other two pizza variants tested are probably not among the classics in the freezer shelf. Once there is the pizza to fill yourself. Only the batter and a glass of tomato sauce are included in the package. For expert Pourahmad , the dough is the most important thing about the Italian specialty anyway. “It has to be airy and at the same time crispy.” But the homemade pizza brand can not convince the professional . "The ground is way too dry". And so it only gets a meager two stars.

Finally, Pourahmad tests a vegan pizza without cheese, tomato sauce and wheat flour. For this, there are pumpkin and beetroot cubes on the round flat cake. “Very daring” is the expert's first conclusion. However, when he takes the finished product out of the oven, the pizza maker is more convinced. “You could consider adding this to your range yourself.” But he wasn't talking about the unusual topping, but the tomato sauce substitute. Because the dough was coated with humus. In the end, there are three stars for the vegan pizza variant . (tel)

Many people have an extra sausage and meat compartment in their fridge anyway. However, if you don't have something like that, you should be careful where you store your meat. And you can make one or two mistakes when cooking eggs.
