To prepare, preheat your oven to the temperature indicated on the packaging, typically around 400°F (200°C). Remove the pizza from its packaging and place it directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet. Bake for the recommended time, usually 10-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. For a crispier crust, you can bake it directly on the oven rack. Let it cool slightly before slicing and serving.
How it differs from similar foods
The stone-baked crust provides a distinct texture, often chewier and with more char than standard crusts. The fresh arugula added after baking offers a bright, peppery contrast to the melted mozzarella and sweet tomatoes, differentiating it from pizzas with cooked-on greens.
