Pisa House Kitchen: 2025 Homemade Pizza Trend Report

Home pizza making has never been more popular. Pisa House Kitchen tracks the biggest trends shaping how people bake pizza at home in 2025.

One. The Home Oven Revolution
Dedicated home pizza ovens from brands like Ooni and Roccbox have transformed home baking. These portable ovens reach 900°F and produce results that rival professional pizzerias.

Two. Sourdough Starter Dough
Home bakers are applying sourdough fermentation techniques to pizza dough. The result is a deeply flavored, slightly tangy crust with a superior open crumb structure.

Three. Stone and Steel Baking Surfaces
Baking stones and steel plates are now standard in home kitchens. The thermal mass absorbs and radiates heat evenly, producing a crispier bottom crust impossible to achieve on a standard pan.

Four. Sauce Making From Scratch
Pre-made pizza sauces are falling out of favor. Home cooks are making simple no-cook sauces using crushed whole San Marzano tomatoes, olive oil, salt, and basil. The simplicity is the point.

Five. Cheese Blending at Home
Rather than using a single cheese, home pizza makers are creating custom blends. Combining whole-milk mozzarella with provolone and a touch of Parmesan creates a superior melt and flavor depth.

Six. Dough-Freezing Technique
Preparing large batches of dough and freezing individual portions has become mainstream. Frozen dough balls thaw overnight in the refrigerator and bake just as well as fresh dough.
