Out of the Box: Dr. Oetker Ristorante Mozzarella Frozen Pizza

Its interesting that its supposed to be the best in Italy, but I've never seen it in supermarkets here before. At least in Rome that is.

Dear Slice: 'What Does Pizza Cost in Rome?'

Hi Janet,

On average, depending on the type of pizza that you choose, a round pizza costs about 6 to 10 euro.

As Adam said, there is pizza al taglio, these are various types of pizza which are rectangular and and you can request to have it cut as big or as large as you like. They are sold according to weight. Each small piece costs about 2 euro each.

Hope this helps :-)

Another from Canada - The mushroom version is fantastic. They're reasonably priced and quick to pop out of the freezer and into the oven. I've never tasted a frozen pizza that could compare to them. Compared to paying $30 for a delivered pizza that you have to wait 30-40 minutes for, this is a decent alternative.

I generally trust the Dr. Oetker brand because their baking products in Germany are excellent too.

Another comment from Canada - I first discovered Dr. Oetker pizza when they were selling them on special at the local supermarket for @2.50 each. I bought all the varieties and loved them all except for the spinach (everyone else seems to love it) - they are still the best buy to have handy in the freezer. One of my grand-daughters is ultra fussy and if she doesn't like what I cooked I hand her a Dr. Oetker cheese and pepperoni - she is as happy as can be.

I love these pizzas! I got hooked on them when I was in Prague for 8 months, and when I first saw the commercial here in the US I was excited! They're different, but tasty.

I thought Paul Newman's new pizzas were the best frozen pizzas.

Apparently riding the artisanal pizza wave, I've noticed a pizza in the frozen section the other day described as: 'slow fermented' dough made with 00 flour topped with san marzano tomatoes and buffalo mozzarella.

Since I had to defrost my freezer recently (and lose most of its contents) - it may be time for me to check out some of this frozen pizza craziness with some taste testing.

I grew up on Dr Oetker products; for easy preparation I find their brand devine.

I like this product and I've been eating it for a while.
The "Fungi" variety RULES. I swear its awesome.

I'll continue to purchase this product :)

I tried the Mozzarella version when it first came out several months ago. Found it to be very tasty, and if I'm ever in the market for a frozen pizza, I'll definitely buy it again.

These frozen pizzas have been around for quite some time in Canada and are pretty great compared to the competition. The Mozzarella version you tested is quite nice, and I agree with the above suggestions of spinach and mushroom (spinaci and fungi), but my personal favourite is the vegetable version (vegetale). The nice, crispy, thin, crust is liberally covered with a nice range of veggies including orange peppers, yellow beans and even half cherry tomatoes.

Wow, I seem to be gushing about a frozen pizza, but compared to the cardboard crust with freezer-burnt toppings that the competition brings to the table, these are really good!

I had a bout of lactose intolerance while on a lot of meds. Amy's Soy Cheese pizza is pretty good and it's lactose-free. I jazzed it up with vegetables and some meats. Quorn, a meat analog made from a fungus, comes in crumbles that look like ground beef and really made a good pizza. If you ever have any lactose-intolerant, vegan, or just plain obnoxious guests.

Oh, sigh. You've got me remembering the many, many pizzas I ate in Rome. Sigh.

Danny, you are correct on all counts. My Euro 2.50 per piece mention was for a slice of about six inches or so.

With the exception of the small round pies you get at sit-down places like Port'Alba in Naples, most of the pizza I've eaten in Italy was sold by weight, ("al taglio"). You walk in, you point at the pizza you want, and the pizzaiolo gestures incrementally at the pie with his knife until you signal how large a slice you want. He cuts it, heats it, weighs it, you pay him, and it's great. Or, on rare occasions, it's not so great, (I ate some mediocre pizza near Rome's Termini Station). This transaction should require little or no fluency in Italian.

Rinaz's price quote sounds about right for a round pizze from when I was last in Roma (when the Euro was converting at about 1.44 Euro per $USD..ouch!)

God, I can't remember the exact price for pizza al taglio, but I want to say the pizza I got from Antica Forno was about Euro 2.50 per piece......it is VERY damned hard to top a start to an evening which includes purchasing a nice bottle of wine from a store or enoteca, ordering a few pieces from Antica Forno and then eating the pizza with your purchased wine while sitting on the pedestal under the statue of Giordano Bruno, watching people walk by and eating on the Campo as the sun fades from twilight into early night as it has done over the Campo dei Fiori for centuries. Roma is fantastic!
