Ever since Rudy’s Pizzeria opened their Sheffield restaurant in the summer of 2022, I have had a beautiful love affair with it. In my opinion, it is the best pizza in the city, so when I heard they were re-launching their “Bake at Home” kits that were a huge hit during lockdown, I couldn’t wait to try.
In case you’re not familiar with Rudy’s, they’re a pizzeria that follows the authentic Neapolitan tradition of pizza making, using fresh double fermented dough and Neapolitan ingredients. Those same authentic, high-quality ingredients are used in their ‘Bake at Home’ pizzas.
They have a variety of different and delicious pizza options on their website for you to choose from, from the classic Margherita, to the spicy Calabrese pizza with ‘nduja sausage and the El Supremo featuring Italian fennel sausage. Alongside these tasty treats, they also have a vegan Portobello offering, as well as garlic bread topped with mozzarella. There really is something for all tastes and preferences.
I opted for the classic Margherita, vegan Portobello, Calabrese and Carni pizzas. I simply added these to my basket on the Rudy’s ‘Bake at Home’ website and chose my delivery date with DPD (they even deliver on a Saturday!). The pizzas were reasonably priced, starting from £7.40 for the Margherita and rising to £7.90 for the meat pizzas. They arrived well packaged, staying fresh during transit. The pizza's have a 2-day shelf-life, however they can be frozen, and now I have my own supply of Rudy’s pizza in my house!
The cooking instructions were really simple and easy to follow. All I had to do was pre-heat my oven to 220’c (you need it really hot to get that classic crispy crust), drizzle some olive oil on the pizza and crusts, and pop it into the oven for just 5-7 minutes.
I was intrigued to see how they would taste compared to the restaurant version, but they really were just as good. The crust was crispy and light with that classic stone baked flavour, the tomato sauce delicious and the ingredients really high quality.
The best part of the Rudy’s ‘Bake at Home’ experience? I didn’t need to leave the comfort of my house to get a slice of the Rudy’s pizza I know and love.
Rudy’s Bake At Home is available to order here. They offer nationwide delivery and the minimum order is 4 pizzas.
