Prosciutto and arugula pizza is a delicious gourmet pizza featuring salty prosciutto and peppery arugula. This pizza is best enjoyed fresh, but proper storage can extend its shelf life. Learn how to store your prosciutto and arugula pizza to maintain its quality and prevent spoilage.
Storage Time
Refrigerate for 1–2 days, or freeze for up to 2 months for best quality.
Temperature
Keep refrigerated at 4°C (40°F) or below to maintain freshness and safety.
Freezing
To freeze prosciutto and arugula pizza, wrap individual slices tightly in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer bag or airtight container. This helps prevent freezer burn. For best results, consume within 2 months. To thaw, transfer the frozen pizza to the refrigerator overnight or reheat directly from frozen in a preheated oven or skillet. Note that the arugula may become slightly wilted after freezing.
Signs of Spoilage
