These loaves are often quite thick and, even if they’re beginning to go stale, pretty fresh in the middle. So I toast the cut loaf a bit before topping with it sauce, cheese, and anything else my heart desires, to keep the crusts crisp and the inner crumb from turning gooey. I usually add pepperoni and finish it with fresh basil, parmesan, and chile flakes. But like I said, do what you want. This is your 10-minute pizza, and you can do what you like to make you happy.
