Portesi FAQs

We get a lot of the same questions here at Portesi. Take a look at the list below and see if we can answer yours here!

If you still need more information – feel free to email portesimarketing@portesi.net with any other questions you may have!

 

What is the difference between the Original Style and the Thin Crust pizzas?

The Original Style pizza is made exactly like a fresh pizza. Fresh dough is rolled out by hand, topped with sauce, cheese and other items then partially baked. The pizza is then cooled, frozen and packaged. If the pizza were baked completely it would be a fresh restaurant quality pizza. Our employees enjoy these for lunch during the week.

The Thin Crust pizza is a pre-baked crust topped off with the same quality ingredients as other Portesi products, and then frozen raw.

What is the difference between the 12” and the 11” Original style pizzas?

The 11” line is THE ORIGINAL recipe. Nothing has changed with the recipe or the way it is made with the traditional flavor profile including a fresh tomato sauce. The 12” is almost identical with the exception of a sweeter sauce offering a different taste profile.

Does the Original Style pizza require less baking time because it is partially baked?

No, the cooking time is about the same.
