Shrimp pizza, a delightful seafood twist on a classic, features succulent shrimp, flavorful cheese, and a crispy crust. To maintain its delicious taste and prevent spoilage, proper storage is essential. This guide provides tips on how to store your shrimp pizza safely and maximize its freshness.

Storage Time

3–4 days in the refrigerator, 2–3 months in the freezer

Temperature

Keep refrigerated at 40°F (4°C) or below to inhibit bacterial growth.

Freezing

To freeze shrimp pizza, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, then in aluminum foil, or place it in a freezer-safe container to prevent freezer burn. For individual slices, wrap each separately. Thaw frozen shrimp pizza in the refrigerator overnight for best results, or use the defrost setting on your microwave. Be aware that freezing may slightly alter the texture of the crust and shrimp.

Signs of Spoilage

• Sour or ammonia-like odor
• Slimy or sticky texture on the shrimp or crust
• Discoloration of the shrimp (grayish or greenish)
• Mold growth on any part of the pizza
